Nicole Kidman is practicing what she preaches.
In a recent chat for Time magazine, the Academy Award-winning actress spoke candidly about exceeding her 2017 aim to work with a woman director every 18 months, following the peak of the #MeToo movement. Over the past eight years, she’s teamed up with at least 19 female filmmakers on various films and television productions.
The Oscar-winning actress discussed in a Time magazine interview how she surpassed her 2017 goal of working with a woman director every 18 months since the #MeToo movement’s peak. In the last eight years, she has worked with at least 19 female directors on movies and TV shows.)
As a gamer, I’ve noticed that female directors often face an unfair expectation to make their debut projects flawless. But here’s the thing – it doesn’t have to stay this way. The change we need can only come about by giving women a chance to direct more films.
The actress is determined to leverage her significant influence in Hollywood to drive change. Notably, she collaborated with director Halina Reijn on their 2024 erotic thriller, following which Reijn had praised Kidman for being one of the rare individuals who genuinely embodies feminism and supports women’s empowerment, as stated in her interview with The Hollywood Reporter for Kidman’s December issue.
As a dedicated gamer, I’m constantly on the lookout for exciting collaborations with talented directors, and it seems like I rarely take a break. I often accept roles not just for myself but to help create opportunities for others. As Jamie Lee Curtis, my co-star in our upcoming crime series Scarpetta, put it, “I’m working because Nicole is working.” In the gaming world, this translates to always being ready for the next level and opening doors for fellow gamers along the way.
Despite the fact that Kidman doesn’t typically view herself in such a manner, people often comment about her by saying, “You’re like a superwoman!” However, she strongly dislikes this notion.
As a devoted admirer, let me share that I’ve come to understand the actress known as Lioness confided she encounters struggles just like any other person. At times, she has even considered stepping away from acting altogether. In her own words, she described these moments: “When there was nothing captivating or pertinent on the horizon, when faced with harsh criticism or bullying, when one’s self-worth falters, when struck by immense sorrow or loss and you feel ‘I can’t bear to get out of bed. It’s too overwhelming.’
Yet, Kidman doesn’t seem to be leaving us any time soon, as she is involved in numerous upcoming ventures. These include a follow-up to the movie “Practical Magic” and another season of “Big Little Lies.
