Nicole Kidman at the Golden Compass premiere

Nicole Kidman has been replaced by Amelie star Audrey Tautou as the face of Chanel's famous No.5 perfume.

In a deal rumoured to be worth around £4.3 million, the 29-year-old actress will take over from pregnant Nicole in TV and glossy magazine advertising for the iconic fragrance.

Just as Nicole was teamed with Baz Luhrmann, the director of one of her most successful films, Moulin Rouge, for her Chanel adverts, so Tautou will be reunited with Amelie director Jean-Pierre Jeunet, who will direct her for the new No.5 campaign.

i think Audrey is very sweet & elegant. I adored the beautiful Mermaid Chanel dress she looked stunning in for the Oscars.
There is something quite 'Silent Movie Star' about Audrey.
A true Classic Beauty with an Edgy twist.

I used to be Audrey's Personal Trainer and Chanel have made an excellent choice in Audrey as their ambassador for their brand. She'll look even more stunning than usual!
