The Nanny Diaries with Alicia Keys moves up to August release

Posted Jul 19th 2007 4:16PM by Wilson Morales
Filed under: It's All Reel

When it comes financial success at the box office, you have to strike gold on opening weekend because with from then on the numbers go down. So, in the seizing the best opportunity available, the Weinstein Co. will now release "The Nanny Diaries" on August 24th, instead of Sept. 7. The film stars Scarlett Johansson, Alicia Keys, and Laura Linney.

Based on the best-selling novel by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus this is the story of nine frantic months in the life of a young woman impulsively hired to care for the neglected 4-year-old son of a pampered wife and her near-absentee husband, whose marriage begins to disintegrate during the period. The young nanny is aptly named Nan and will be the role Scarlett will be in charge or occupying as she juggles the household's marital woes, her classes, a romance and a spoiled kid. Keys plays her best friend, Lynette.

6. STARRING ALICIA KEYS? WHERE? THIS TRAILER DID NOT SHOW HER SAYING OR DOING ANYTHING. NOT SURE IF I WANT TO SEE IT IF SHE IS JUST MAKING AN APPERANCE AND DOES NOT HAVE A SUBSTANCIAL ROLE.

PRECIOUS at 11:13AM on Jul 22nd 2007

7. I don't know. I might go see it at the movie. It doesn't sound like something I want to spend 7.50 on, but it sounds like it's worth checking out. Maybe I'll wait till it hits the dollar movie. lol. And as far as miss Keys goes, I was pleasantly surprised in 'smokin aces', so I'm sure she'll do a bangin job in this movie.

YOU ARE THE NUMBER ONE SINGER FOR YOUR GENERATION.

9. I'm very proud of Alicia, but after watching the trailer I realized I never saw her it any scenes. Of course I'm sure she is in the movie somewhere but what was the point of all this about her if she can't even have a scene in the trailer. Or did I blink and miss her?

tee at 1:27PM on Jul 22nd 2007

13. Alicia is doing her thang, she is an excellent actress...did anyone see Smokin Aces, I personally think the magic happened with her and Common--she's passionate, creative and a true professional. I will pay my loot to see her on the big screen just cuz, it's about support...when one makes it, it opens the doors for others...and she is a positive light...shine on Ms. Keyes

Battlecatt at 7:15PM on Jul 22nd 2007

14. Alicia ain't NO dyke! She has been in a relationship with a much older man for years. She is and has always been mature for her age! I really would like to see her in a black film like Eve's Bayou where a black actor can really shine w/o having to be a white actor's sidekick.

LaDominadora at 8:46PM on Jul 22nd 2007

15. Alicia Keys is a very great singer and actor. I think she will do really good
