Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet are reunited for the first time since “Titanic.” Brad Pitt is a man who ages backward. Benicio Del Toro portrays Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara in one, or possibly two, films.
These stars and their newest flicks are already some of the heavy favorites for next year’s Oscars.
Here’s a rundown:
* Past Best Actress winner Nicole Kidman will give it another try by reuniting with her “Moulin Rouge” director, Baz Luhrmann, for “Australia,” an epic World War II romance co-starring Hugh Jackman.
* Del Toro will star as Che in “Guerrilla,” set in 1964 New York City.
A companion piece, “The Argentine,” is set in 1956 Cuba and also stars Del Toro as Guevara.
* “Revolutionary Road,” a marital drama set in 1950s Connecticut, stars DiCaprio and five-time nominee Winslet.
* Cate Blanchett is cast opposite Pitt, the man who regresses to childhood, in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.”
* Tom Cruise plays a real-life Nazi colonel who led an attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler in “Valkyrie.”
* Two-time winner and 14-time nominee Meryl Streep shows her versatility by singing in “Mamma Mia!”
* Streep also stars in “Doubt,” as a nun who suspects a popular priest (Philip Seymour Hoffman) of molesting a boy.
* Frank Langella plays the ousted president in Ron Howard’s “Frost/Nixon,” a film version of the actor’s Broadway triumph.
* “Defiance” stars Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber and Jamie Bell as Jewish brothers who escape from Nazi-occupied Poland to join Russian forces.
* Russell Crowe and director Ridley Scott, who struck Oscar gold with “Gladiator,” go back to the well with “Body of Lies,” also starring DiCaprio as a former journalist who teams up with Crowe’s CIA official to find an al Qaeda leader in Jordan.
