10th January 2012 Julia Roberts' Oscar-winning role as Erin Brockovich would not have been complete without her no-nonsense attitude and infamous push-up bra.
And perhaps that is what Catherine Zeta-Jones had in mind when she took on her latest project Lay The Favourite.
In a newly-released still from the film, the actress, 42, has had a busty and brassy makeover.
Catherine stars in the film as Tulip Heimowitz, a cocktail waitress who falls into the world of professional gambling.
The Ocean's Twelve star dons a fiery red wig for the role, and sports an eye-popping cleavage that would make Brockovich proud.
The film, co-starring Bruce Willis, Rebecca Hall and Vince Vaughn, is about a group of gamblers who learn how to work the system.
Tulip's gambling takes her to New York and the Caribbean - but her priorities change when she falls in love.
The vampy role is Zeta-Jones' first since her husband Michael Douglas' cancer diagnosis, and her own diagnosis with bipolar disorder.
Her last major role was in 2009's The Rebound, but she has taken a hiatus to be by Douglas' side during his illness.
With the Wall Street star, 67, on the mend, Catherine has taken on a number of projects over the next year.
She has also completed filming on comedy Playing The Field, in which she appears alongside an all-star cast of Gerard Butler, Uma Thurman, Dennis Quaid and Jessica Biel.
She also stars in the highly-anticipated movie musical Rock of Ages.
Catherine plays Patricia Whitmore in the big-screen adaptation, whose plans to transform the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles is opposed by rock enthusiasts played by Russell Brand, Julianne Hough and Alec Baldwin.
Tom Cruise also stars as past-it rock god Stacee Jaxx.
Catherine is currently filming crime thriller Broken City with Mark Wahlberg and Russell Crowe in New York.
