The actress – who recently became attached to Clint Eastwood’s forthcoming movie ‘J. Edgar’ in the role as his secretary Helen Gandy – is set to play the iconic screen siren in an adaptation of Andrew Dominik’s ‘Blonde’ and she admits the nerves about the part are getting to her.
She said: “It’s a huge pressure. We all feel we know her. I’m very, very scared about that.”
It is not the only movie role she is nervous about – she also felt “daunted” to be playing real life CIA agent Valerie Plame – whose cover was busted by the White House when her husband wrote an anti-Bush editorial piece – in ‘Fair Game’.
Asked about her feelings she said: “Daunting. I’m a lot more fragile than she is. To me, she seems almost invincible.”

I'm sure this is going to be a great film and an awards ticket for Naomi. Good Luck!
She is being humble. As talented and versatile as Ms. Watts, I'm sure she can tackle this role without difficulty. And ahe has got the MM look as an added advantage.
