Kate Winslet Walks in NYC on February 24, 2008

Kate Winslet didn't seem too bothered about skipping the Oscars as she went for a stroll in NYC on Sunday. She's been hard at work on The Reader with Ralph Fiennes, the role she took over after Nicole Kidman dropped out. Next up for Kate is voicing the character of Juliet in Gnomeo and Juliet, an updated and animated version of the Shakespeare story with a little twist — it's about garden gnomes. Um, if anyone can pull it off it's definitely Kate? Really though, we're all just sitting tight until the fall when we get to see her back on the big screen with Leo. Swoon.
