The grieving murderer! Nicole Kidman dons all black for funeral as new stills emerge for her upcoming horror film Stoker 

She is playing a murderous mother.
But Nicole Kidman's character in Gothic horror movie Stoker may be quite the actress herself after appearing grief stricken at a funeral.
Evelyn is sitting next to her daughter India, played by fellow Aussie Mia Wasikowska, in what seems to be the moment her husband is laid to rest following a tragic car crash.

However it remains to be seen whether the desperately sad looking actress' character is being genuine, or if it is just a performance to throw off any suspicions activity.
The movie follows what happens to the creepy Stoker family after the accident.
Soon afterwards the previously unheard of Uncle Charlie, played by Brideshead Revisited star Matthew Goode, moves in with India and her emotionally unstable mother.
But while she comes to suspect that this mysterious, charming man has deadly ulterior motives, the teenager also becomes increasingly infatuated with him.
Written by Wentworth Miller of Prison Break and co-produced by Ridley Scott and Michael Costigan, Stoker is the first English language film from Korean Oldboy director Park Chan-wook.

Although influenced by Bram Stoker's Dracula, writer Wentworth has clarified the film is 'not about vampires: 'It was never meant to be about vampires but it is a horror story. A stoker is one who stokes, which also ties in nicely with the narrative,' he said.
It is a big year for ageing beauty Nicole, 45, as she also has two other high profile projects scheduled.
First she will play Patti, the wife of Second World War prisoner of war Eric Lomax, in The Railway Man, opposite Colin Firth.
Next, as is fitting for one of Hollywood’s most illustrious leading ladies, she will portray Grace Kelly in Grace of Monaco.
'I feel like I’m in drama school doing Lady Macbeth one night, Nina from The Seagull the next and then some raunchy comedy,' The 45-year-old told the Express.
'I like stepping into many different characters and trying to be them. I’m in a place of abandonment right now and it feels great.'
