The Oscar-winning actress has joined the cast of Amazon’s adaptation of Pretty Things, a novel by Janelle Brown. Kidman will star as one of the leads in the story about “Two wildly different women—one a grifter, the other an heiress—are brought together by the scam of a lifetime.”

Brown will adapt the novel to series with Handmaid’s Tale helmer Reed Morano attached to direct. 

Amazon won the rights to the novel following a highly competitive race with multiple bidders. The series will be produced under the Kidman’s Blossom Films production company.

Despite being some of the industry’s most successful and respected actresses, Nicole Kidman, Viola Davis, and Gal Gadot might be out of jobs soon, thanks to their very own offspring.

The trio’s children are making their big screen debuts in the upcoming sequel to Angry Birds.

Angry Birds 2 sees the ruler of the Bad Piggies plot revenge against the Angry Birds, who form an alliance with the Pigs against a bird named Zeta.

11-year-old Sunday Rose and 8-year-old Faith Margaret Urban, who are the daughters of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, will be providing the voices of hatchlings Lily and Beatrice.

They will be joined by the daughter of How to Get Away with Murder star Viola Davis, Genesis Tennon, who is 9, as well as Gal Gadot’s 7-year-old little girl, Alma Varsano.

“Looks like I’m out of the job… so proud of my little Hatchling Alma and all her hard work on Angry Birds 2,” wrote the proud Wonder Woman mom on Instagram.

Angry Birds 2 is out on August 14th.

Who wouldn’t when Ryan Murphy is hosting?!

The American Horror Story producer is planning to adapt the stage musical The Prom for a broader audience on Netflix.

Murphy will both direct and executive produce the project, which boasts a rather phenomenal cast.

Among those who will be getting their corsages in order are Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, Ariana Grande, James Corden, Awkwafina, Kegan-Michael Key, and Andrew Rannells.

The story revolves around a big musical which flops leading to the actors involved deciding to support a high school girl who can’t go to her prom because she is gay.

“The Prom is one of the most uplifting, heartfelt and special musicals I have ever seen on Broadway. It’s truly an original that celebrates the underdog and says in a loving spectacular way that LGBTQ rights are human rights,” Murphy stated previously on Instagram.

This is not the first time that many of the cast have acted alongside one another. Streep and Kidman are currently starring opposite each other in Big Little Lies, while Streep and Corden were both in Into the Woods.

The Prom will premiere in 2020.

The ladies from Big Little Lies walked the red carpet on Wednesday night, and you know what that means, right?

Season 2 is coming very soon.

Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern, and Zoë Kravitz all showed up at the premiere for the second — and final — installment of the HBO show, along with Adam Scott and series newcomer, Meryl Streep.

During a panel discussion, Nicole also dropped what seems to be a big little spoiler…

When asked about Alexander Skarsgård, who played her husband in season 1 (and came to a bit of a messy end…), the Aquaman actress said, “He was the most incredible acting partner, and then he came back for season 2.”

At that point, fellow executive producer, Reese, motioned to her co-star to stop talking and Nicole continued by saying, “He has a little bit of a part in the sense of… the basis of… okay, I’ll be quiet. He didn’t abandon us. We’ll put it that way.”

We guess all will be revealed when Big Little Lies returns on June 9th.

The first season of the drama, based on the book by Liane Moriarty, ended on quite a dramatic note.

The characters played by Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern, and Zoë Kravitz are now suspects in the murder of Nicole’s abusive husband, played by Alexander Skarsgård.

And his mother, played by newcomer Meryl Streep (you may have heard of her), won’t let them forget it.

“My son is dead,” she says to Reese’s character Madeline. “And I want to know what happened that night. Very tempted to ask you, but I don’t think I would get the truth, would I?”

Eeek. Ladies, play nice…

The teaser also revealed that season two of the hit series will return to HBO on the 9th of June.

Nicole Kidman has given us hope.

Fans of Big Little Lies have eagerly anticipated the 2nd season of the series which follows the seemingly perfect lives of Celeste Wright, Madeline Mackenzie, and Jane Chapman, played by Nicole, Reese Witherspoon, and Shailene Woodley, respectively.

The multiple award-winning show, which is based on the novel of the same name by Liane Moriarty, was never supposed to have a second season but created one due to the series’ popularity.

The sophomore installment has also added Meryl Streep to its cast as Celeste’s mother-in-law, Mary-Louise.

Nicole made a surprise appearance on CNN’s New Year’s Eve Live with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen on New Year’s Eve where she was asked when we would could expect the return of the HBO hit.

“It’s looking like June. I think June,” the Boy Erased actress replied.

Let’s hope she’s not lying.

Filming of season 2 of the hit show Big Little Lies has come to an end and the leading ladies of Monterey celebrated the conclusion of the shoot with heartfelt messages. 

Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon both took to social media to thank their on-screen families of the HBO drama. Witherspoon shared never-before-seen behind-the-scenes pics alongside co-stars Shailene Woodley, Zoe Kravitz, Laura Dern, Meryl Streep, and Kidman. Steep is a new addition to the series, joining the cast for season two as Mary Louise Wright, mother of the recently deceased Perry Wright (Alexander Skarsgard), Kidman’ on-screen husband.

“Feeling so grateful to my #BigLittleLies family on our last day of shooting Season 2! You have all inspired me, supported me, made me laugh & cry,” the 42-year-old actress captioned the pics. “Making the second season even more exciting than the last (I can’t wait for y’all to see it!!). Thank you @HBO and our amazing Director Andrea Arnold! Big love to my sisters @nicolekidman @lauradern @shailenewoodley @zoeisabellakravitz and #MerylStreep. ,” she added.

Kidman posted a b&w pic of herself clad in a shirt with the names of the female characters of the series. 

“That’s a wrap on #BigLittleLies Season 2 filming! What a beautiful journey this has been with my Monterey 5 sisters and our passionate dedicated crew,” Kidman captioned the photo. “Thank you HBO for the amazing opportunity and thank you, Andrea Arnold, for being our fearless leader, and of course the one and only Meryl Streep for believing in us. I love you all. xx.”

The release date of Big Little Lies 2 has yet to be confirmed.

Kidman will produce the series based on the best selling novel by Janice Y.K. Lee and screenwriter Alice Bell via Blossom Films 

“After announcing our recent first look deal with Nicole and Blossom Films, we are thrilled to kick off this relationship by bringing this very popular novel from author Janice Y.K. Lee to Prime Video,” said Jennifer Salke, Head of Amazon Studios and added “The story weaves an addictive tapestry that follows a group of complex women and their lives as outsiders in Hong Kong. It’s a compelling exploration of the strength of these women as they persevere through struggles with marriage, career, parenting and unimaginable loss.”

Kidman also expressed her excitement for her upcoming show saying, “The Expatriates is just the beginning of our shared goal in making delicious stories with something meaningful to say about the world.”

Here’s the official logline: The Expatriates follows a close-knit expatriate community against the backdrop of Hong Kong “where affluence is celebrated, friendships are intense but knowingly temporary, and personal lives, deaths and marriages are played out publicly—then retold with glee. This is a delicious world of unusual alliances, heartfelt truths and mystifying superstitions; a place where fortunes are made and lost, families sundered and brought together, identities made and then remade in pursuit of an extraordinary life.”

Amazon has also given the green light to two seasons of horror event series THEM from Lena Waithe, and a new comedy Upload helmed by The Office’s Greg Daniels.
