Academy Award-winning actress Nicole Kidman has reportedly been receiving death threats for her role in the controversial film The Golden Compass.
The film is based on a novel by British novelist Philip Pullman. It has been boycotted by Roman Catholic groups who believe the movie promotes atheism.
Reports have surfaced that aside from Kidman, her co-star Daniel Craig has also been receiving threats.
"The amount of hate mail has been unbelievable. There have been death threats. Most of the backlash has been aimed at Pullman but even the cast has had their fair share of abuse," says a source.
The current James Bond title holder defends the movie and the book and says they are not promoting atheism.
"I think the majority of people criticizing it haven't read it. These books are not anti-religious. Mainly they're anti-misuse of power - religious or political," Craig says.
