Amid rumours it wouldn’t be finished in time, Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman turned out for the world premiere of Baz Luhrmann’s new epic Australia in the country itself yesterday.

The stars - accompanied by their other co-stars including Bryan Brown and 12 year old Brandon Walters, and director Baz - attended a press conference and photocall ahead of the premiere in Sydney today (first row of pictures) before the red carpet event in the evening (local time).

Nicole Kidman was accompanied to the premiere by husband Keith Urban and sister Antonia Kidman.
