LOS ANGELES, March 7 (UPI) -- "Nicole in the Country," which lost its title when real-life Nicole Kidman joined the cast, has added more star power with the signing of Jack Black.

Jennifer Jason Leigh also is on board for the film written by Noah Baumbach, Daily Variety reported Tuesday.

Filming starts April 2 in New York about what happens when a young woman's sister and nephew pop in for a visit. Black will play the young woman's husband.

Black was recently seen in Peter Jackson's "King Kong" and just finished shooting "The Holiday," due out Dec. 8. Next on his slate is "Nacho Libre," coming out June 2 and "Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny," which hits theaters Nov. 17.
