Catherine Zeta-Jones' planned musical movie about her native Wales has been delayed because of the struggling US dollar.

According to the Internet Media Database, the film, "Coming Out", which the star is planning to act in and produce - with her brother Lyndon - was due to begin shooting in Wales this month.

But the film has been hit by the falling value of the US dollar against the British pound.

The shooting schedule has now been reduced to 42 days and director Joel Zwick hopes to recruit a host of Welsh-born stars to join the lead pair Zeta-Jones and Scot Alan Cumming.
