Notes:
* Most probably Nicole Kidman has transformed to somebody else since I can't easily recognize her. Same as Fergie.
* No doubt: PENELOPE IS HOT!!!
* I actually fancy Kate and her dance. 8D
* On the trailer, Judi delivered some lines while Fergie sang the song "Be Italian".
* Javier Bardem is considered for the role played by Day-Lewis. I have no qualms but I think Day-Lewis is better for the role.
* Renee Zellweger is also considered for the role played by Cruz. I don't find Zellweger attractive: Cruz perfectly suited the role.
* Anne Hathaway is also considered for the role played by Hudson. I can't imagine Hathaway dance like that. I think Hudson can nail it.
* Catherine Zeta-Jones is also considered for the role played by Kidman. No qualms so far.
