The life of British pop singer Dusty Springfield will be played by Nicole Kidman.

Kidman plans to produce as well as star in the project with “The Hours” scribe Michael Cunningham.

Springfield was a solo artist who became a breakout star of the British invasion of the 1960s. Her personal life was more tragic, filled with bouts of drug and alcohol abuse and mental illness. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1995 and died in 1999.
