Nicole Kidman can castrate bulls

Actress gets hands-on with the beefcake for new role

Nicole Kidman has been learning how to castrate young bulls.

The Hollywood actress - who will star as a 1930s English aristocrat who inherits a cattle station in new movie Australia - will be required to be hands-on with the livestock, including neutering cattle.

'I don't know if I'll actually have to do that, but it's best to be prepared,' the 39-year-old told a press conference.

The role will see the Cold Mountain star return to her roots as much of the story is set in the outback Down Under. Nicole was born in Hawaii to Australian parents. Her family moved back to Australia when she was four.

The actress will star alongside Hugh Jackman, who plays a cattle baron and Nicole's love interest.
