NICOLE KIDMAN - KIDMAN'S NOSE-TWITCHING WOES

NICOLE KIDMAN is having a huge problem preparing for her upcoming film version of BEWITCHED - she can't twitch her nose like original star ELIZABETH MONTGOMERY.

The statuesque actress has signed up to portray the beloved witch alongside WILL FERRELL, in the film - a remake of the hit sixties TV series - which is set to be released in 2005.

And while the Hollywood actress is elated to have landed the coveted role - which was also reportedly chased by REESE WITHERSPOON - she's unsure just how well she'll be at twitching her nose before casting spells.

She says, "Everybody keeps asking me if I'm gonna do it, so I guess I've got to get that down. It just doesn't come that easily. I don't know how (Elizabeth Montgomery) did it."
