Marion Cotillard and Nicole Kidman already planning second collaboration

I'm sorry, but how awesome is the trailer for this going to look (assuming it gets made):
Academy Award Winner Nicole Kidman
Academy Award Winner Marion Cotillard
from Academy Award Winning Director Steven Spielberg

This movie needs to get made with these three people involved.

...including "The Rivals," starring Nicole Kidman and Marion Cotillard -- stay at Paramount, with Spielberg able to co-finance which ones he chooses. If he doesn't co-finance, and he's a producer or director on any of those projects, he'll get his 7.5% gross deal.

The film is about the rivalry between 19th century stage stars, SARAH BERNHARDT and ELEONORA DUSE - who competed in their careers as well as in social circles and romantically.

More youthful than Bernhardt, Italian-born Duse became a threat to the older actress and, as the rivalry escalated, both would play the same part on the same night to allow critics the chance to compare their performances.
