The director of Bewitched has admitted that she chose Nicole Kidman as her lead actress because of her nose.
Director Nora Ephron knew she had found her star when she noticed that Kidman's nose bears an uncanny similarity to that of Elizabeth Montgomery, the actress who played Samantha in the original TV show Bewitched.
Ephron told the Boston Herald: "I instantly thought the resemblance between Nicole's nose and Elizabeth Montgomery's nose was so perfect. I thought, 'What a great idea to write a story about a character being cast in Bewitched solely for the resemblance her nose bears to Elizabeth Montgomery's."
The movie is currently number two in the North American box office and is scheduled for release in the UK on August 19.
