Katie Holmes is devastated after being turned down for a role in a new musical film, it has been claimed. The former 'Dawson's Creek' star - who last year married Tom Cruise and gave birth to his daughter Suri - was desperate to appear in the movie adaptation of hit Broadway show 'Nine', but director Rob Marshall reportedly decided she wasn't right for the role.

A source said: "Katie desperately wanted to be in 'Nine'. It would have taken her back to the singing and dancing she did when she was growing up. She thought working with Rob would be a career breakthrough. She was heartbroken when she didn't get the part."

'Chicago' director Marshall's new project tells the story of famous film director Guido Contini and the women in his life. Catherine Zeta-Jones - who won an Oscar for her part in 'Chicago' - has been cast as Guido's muse, Sophia Loren will play his mother, while Tom Cruise's ex-girlfriend Penelope Cruz is to play his mistress. Tom's ex-wife Nicole Kidman was also tipped to appear in the movie, along with Gwyneth Paltrow, Renee Zellweger and Dame Judi Dench.

Since Katie, 28, married Tom it has been claimed he has to approve her scripts before she auditions.
