Singer Fergie is in negotiations to join the Rob Marshall-helmed musical Nine for the Weinstein Co. and Relativity Media.
She joins a cast that already includes Daniel Day-Lewis, Marion Cottilard, Penelope Cruz, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman, Sophia Loren and Judi Dench.
Role marks the Grammy-winning singer’s first major role in a bigscreen project. She had a small role in the Weinstein Co.’s Grindhouse.
Fergie will play Saraghina, a lusty woman who introduces Guido (Day-Lewis) to the world of sexuality.
Shooting starts in October in the U.K.
