The The Bourne Identity and Jumper Director Doug Liman has confirmed to MTV News that Nicole Kidman is set to play Valerie Plame, in the upcoming Warner Bros. biopic about the outed CIA agent.

Liman said:

"She's perfect if you've ever met Valerie. Nicole was supposed to play Jane Smith in 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith.' We owe a movie together! That's an unrequited thing between me and an actor where I fell in love with them for a role and never get to consummate it."

Valerie Elise Plame Wilson is a former US CIA Operations Officer whose covert identity was classified and the wife of former Ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV. After working for the CIA for twenty years, she retired in December 2005, as a result of the publication and compromising of her classified cover identity by an American journalist called Robert Novak...in 2003. The ensuing fallout lead to a highly publicised scandal reaching all the way up to U.S. President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.

Warners landed the movie rights to Plame's memoir 'Fair Game' almost a year ago...but the movie has been a tricky one to do considering how much of the book was 'redacted' - ie. heavily censored by the CIA with black lines erasing much of the book's text.

Liman however insists he's found a way around any government objections, as he stated:

"I have a really, really insane take on how to tell it. It's so outrageous. Ultimately, I'd be doing something no one has ever done before. Therefore it's automatically appealing to me. I'm just starting to explore whether [what I have in mind] is even possible to do."

To keep a grip on the actual events that occurred...Liman has been having extensive talks with Plame who is said to have lent him her complete support.

Good to see that Kidman's going back to the meaty roles...which will obviously begin after she's given birth to her first child.
