A new gig for Aaron Eckhart

Variety has the story:

Aaron Eckhart is in talks to star opposite Nicole Kidman in Fox Searchlight's bigscreen adaptation of David Lindsay-Abaire's Broadway play "Rabbit Hole."
John Cameron Mitchell ("Shortbus") is directing and Kidman's producing through her Fox-based Blossom Films banner. The deal for Eckhart comes two years after Kidman signed on (Daily Variety, Jan. 5, 2007).
Lindsay-Abaire's adapting his story of a happily married couple whose lives are disrupted after their 4-year-old son is killed in a traffic accident and the redemptive journey they must undertake to regain happiness.
Eckhart's starring in "Rum Diary" alongside Johnny Depp, Richard Jenkins and Giovanni Ribisi.
-Nice pairing, to me...thoughts?
