Nicole Kidman has churned out an impressive number of television shows and films over the last two years.

In 2024 she appeared in the seductive blockbuster Babygirl, Netflix’s murder mystery The Perfect Couple, season two of Lioness, and the romcom A Family Affair.

The mom-of-four, who is married to Keith Urban, also starred in the Amazon Prime limited series Expats at the top of last year. Additionally, she did voice acting in the animated musical/fantasy film Spellbound, which was released on Netflix in the fall.

Fans will see her in two more projects confirmed for this year, and then, the 57-year-old Australian siren says she will be taking a well-deserved break. 

While promoting her latest film, called Holland, at the SXSW Film & TV Festival over the weekend, she shared she is ready to take a step back.

‘I was much more out there last year; this year I have Holland, I have Nine Perfect Strangers, and then I’m off for the rest of year. So, oh well!’ she exclaimed to The Hollywood Reporter.

Although Nicole only mentioned two roles to THR, last September Amazon Prime announced that she will star in the mystery thriller Scarpetta, expected to be released sometime in 2025.

She also has a role in David E. Kelley’s forthcoming Margo’s Got Money Troubles alongside Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer.

And viewers are still anxiously awaiting the third season of Big Little Lies (also written by Kelley), which has been confirmed while other details remain unknown. 

Kidman’s work has been so ubiquitous that she’s become the ʙuтт of jokes in the entertainment industry.

At the Golden Globes in January, host Nikki Glaser teased, ‘Thank you, Nicole, for working so hard! 

‘And thank you, Keith Urban, for playing guitar around the house so much that she wants to leave and make 18 movies a year. Keep strumming, you kooky Koala.’

Last November, when the actress celebrated her mention in British GQ’s Men of the Year issue, fans used the opportunity to opine that she has taken on too many roles.

Nicole’s movie Babygirl, directed by Halina Reijn, was unveiled at the 81st Venice Film Festival in August 2024, where it received a six-and-a-half minute standing ovation

‘Can you please give other actresses a chance and not be in every single movie out there??’ one person commented on the post.

‘I think you need to stop acting like you’re like 25 years old. It’s not a good look, just saying,’ another said. 

‘She seems to be in everything these days, and it’s annoying. And I think it has the opposite effect, people won’t watch it,’ a different critic added.

However, others defended the star, insisting Nicole deserves her many starring roles because of her talent.

‘Her talent is undeniable! She earns it. I wish she was in MORE MOVIES and MORE SHOWS. We can’t get enough of her. She’s legendary,’ one devoted fan declared.
