Nicole KidmanCharlize Theron has dropped out of "The Danish Girl." Nicole Kidman will play Danish painter Einar Wegener, who in 1931 became the first person to go through a sex-change operation to become a woman, according to Variety.com.

Einer became Lili Elbe following five operations over two years. She died three months after her last operation, which entailed a uterus transplant. Her cause of death is believed to have been transplant rejection.

The film will be produced by Kidman and Per Saari, head of Kidman's Fox-based Blossom Films.
