Nicole Kidman recently opened up about her decision to star in blockbuster movies like Batman Forever and Aquaman, despite having a prestigious body of work in her career. In a recent interview with L’Officiel magazine, the Oscar-winning actress shared that she was questioned by many about her involvement in Batman movies, to which she humorously responded that she did it because she got to kiss Batman.
Kidman emphasized that her choice of roles is not solely based on financial gain but also on the opportunity to explore different genres and work with talented directors. She portrayed Dr. Chase Meridian in Batman Forever alongside a star-studded cast, and later took on the role of Queen Atlanna in Aquaman, citing her desire to collaborate with director James Wan.
Expressing her interest in classic horror films, Kidman revealed her aspiration to delve into the genre in the future. Despite her success in television with projects like Big Little Lies, The Undoing, and Nine Perfect Strangers, she expressed a newfound appreciation for the long-format storytelling in TV series.
In her upcoming project, Netflix’s The Perfect Couple, Kidman plays the character of Greer Garrison, a novelist entangled in a mysterious murder investigation that disrupts her family's celebrations. The limited drama series promises a gripping narrative that unfolds as secrets unravel and suspicions arise among the characters.
Kidman's versatility as an actress and her willingness to explore diverse roles across film and television continue to captivate audiences and showcase her range as a performer. With a blend of mainstream blockbusters and character-driven projects, Kidman remains a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, constantly challenging herself and pushing creative boundaries.
