Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman is a Hollywood actress who gained fame as a film star of our time. The directors appreciate her for her professionalism and versatility, the audience adores her for her sincere transformation into characters and interesting images.

Today she is an international star, winner of the Oscar, several Golden Globe, Emmy, Silver Bear and others.

Nicole Kidman was born in Honolulu, the capital of Hawaii on June 20, 1967. The Gemini symbol became her patronizing zodiac sign. Nicole's parents are of Scottish-Irish descent and have spent their entire lives in Australia. Anthony's father David Kidman is a biochemist who studied the problem of the appearance of cancer cells, at that time he worked in numerous scientific projects in the United States. Janelle's mother Anne McNeil devoted her time to editing her husband's books and participating in the Australian movement for equal rights for women.

When Nicole was 4 years old, her parents moved back to Australia, where the actress's father received a position at the Technical University of Sydney. In Australia, the younger sister Antonia Kidman was born, who gained fame as a journalist.

Remembering her school years, the actress admits that she was an extremely shy child. She even had a slight stutter, which eventually faded. When the girl was three years old, her parents took her to a ballet school. Dance and theater were the first serious hobbies of young Nicole. Throughout her school period, the girl participated in productions, revealing her natural talent on stage.

After graduating from high school, Kidman continued her studies at the Victorian College of the Arts at the University of Melbourne, as well as at the Phillip Street Theater, linking her entire future destiny with art. Studying acting, plastic arts and theater history, the future star finds in acting on stage a refuge from the crises of adolescence.

In 1984, Nicole's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, which forced the 17-year-old girl to temporarily interrupt her studies and get a job as a masseuse in order to be able to financially support her family, while Janelle Ann was undergoing treatment and rehabilitation.

Nicole Kidman's debut on the screen was her participation in the filming of the video for Australian singer Patricia Wilson "Bop Girl". Nicole's next work is filming in the movie "Bicycle Bandits" and the romantic comedy "Rider on the Wind". In 1988, Kidman was nominated for Best Supporting Actress by the Australian Film Institute for his participation in the screen version of David Williamson's play The Emerald City.

In her early youth, Nicole Kidman starred in the cult series "Bangkok Hilton", where her participation was noted by the public and critics. 1989 was marked for the actress by participating in the thriller Dead Calm, which brought Nicole Kidman her first world-class success. Her first film work in the United States was in Days of Thunder, in which she co-stars with Tom Cruise, who later became her husband.

In 1990, Kidman was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for her supporting actress in Billy Bathgate. The prestigious New York Times writes about the success of the young actress, noting Nicole's charm and sense of humor. She soon starred as Dr. Chase Meridan in Batman Forever and also starred in the black comedy Worth Die For. Workshops transforming the actress from role to role could not go unnoticed: Nicole Kidman received a Golden Globe.

The turning point in the creative biography of Nicole Kidman was the role of the courtesan Satine in the musical film "Moulin Rouge". The actress and her stage partner Ewan McGregor performed all the songs on their own. Critics greeted the film with enthusiasm, and Nicole Kidman received the long-awaited Oscar for her participation in it.

Significant for Nicole Kidman and her husband Tom Cruise was their participation in Stanley Kubrick's latest film Eyes Wide Shut. The shooting of this erotic picture lasted more than a year; Kubrick, a famous perfectionist, altered a lot and even changed actors after filming. Cruise and Kidman had a lot of time to be removed naked, as well as to get used to the role of spouses, whose feelings for each other cooled. Rumor has it that participation in this film finally undermined their relationship in real life, and soon after the release of the tape, the couple divorced.

Participation in the mystical thriller The Others directed by Alejandro Amenabar was the next step in the development of Nicole Kidman's career. The film is distinguished by a dark atmosphere, an intriguing plot with an unexpected ending and, of course, great acting.

Film director Stephen Daldry's "Watch" starring Kidman in 2002 brought the most prestigious awards, a second Oscar and a British Academy Award.

In 2003, Nicole Kidman starred in Dogville by Lars von Trier. After the premiere, the views of the audience were divided: in Europe, the picture was recognized as the highest achievement in the world of cinema, and in America, the opinions of critics were not so enthusiastic. At the same time, Kidman decides not to participate in von Trier's films anymore. The reason for this could be both the failure of the film in America, and the difficult relationship between the actors and the director.

Nicole Kidman starred in Cold Mountain, which received as many as 7 Oscar nominations. In the same 2003, the actress played the main role in the film "A tarnished reputation", which resonated with the audience.

However, few of the Hollywood stars managed in their careers not to stumble and not to participate in failed projects. Such were the films "The Witch" and "The Stepford Wives". For her role in the first film, the celebrity received the anti-award "Golden Raspberry", and the second failed at the world box office. But in 2005 the picture “The Interpreter” was released, in which the actress played with Sean Penn. True, all this creation was remembered not by the play of the actors, but by the fact that the film was filmed within the walls of the UN. Before that, films were not allowed to be filmed there.

Nicole's work in the film "Birth" was controversial. The picture, even before the premiere, which was planned at the Venice Film Festival, was condemned for manifestations of pedophilia. The reason was the information leaked to the press that Kidman's heroine should have sex with a 10-year-old boy. For this reason, the film never appeared in the United States, but it was shown in Europe. Moreover, the star was honored for her role in this film "Golden Globe". Another notable work was the main role in the fantastic thriller Invasion.

In 2011, Kidman co-starred with Nicolas Cage in the psychological film What Lies Behind. A year later, the film "Before I Sleep" was released with Kidman. The producer of the story about a woman who woke up every day without remembering herself and those around her was Ridley Scott himself, and the screen partner was Colin Firth.

From the last works of the actress, the public noted her participation in the biography film "Princess of Monaco", where Kidman appeared in front of the public as Grace Kelly. However, the tape was crushed by the press, and not a single representative of the princely Grimaldi family was present at the premiere. According to the heirs, the film was far from reality.

Nicole Kidman was noted not only for many roles in films, but also proved herself as a singer. Together with British pop idol Robbie Williams, Kidman sang the song Something Stupid, which was first performed in the 60s by Nancy and Frank Sinatra.

Kidman is one of the actresses who, along with the success in the cinema, have lucrative offers from advertisers. Kinodiva became the face of the Chanel No. 5 brand in the mid-2000s. The video featuring Nicole Kidman became the most expensive in the history of advertising; the actress received $ 4 million for shooting in it.

In 2016, the actress starred for a photo shoot for the Pirelli calendar, in which, in addition to Nicole, her colleagues - Uma Thurman, Robin Wright, Julianne Moore, Charlotte Rampling, Helen Mirren participated. A distinctive feature of the pictures was that all the stars of the screen appeared in the frame without makeup.

In the winter of 2017, the drama Leo, a sentimental story based on real events, was released in Russia. The film is about a lost boy who, as an adult, found his way home. In this film story, the actress plays the child's adoptive mother. On the eve of the premiere, the Kidman fan page on Instagram was full of photos from the presentation of the picture.

In the wake of protests over Donald Trump's coming to power in the United States, it was rumored that the actress fell into disgrace in the American public for her careless statement that America should support the president whom the people chose. They say that for this reason, two Hollywood studios broke contracts with her.

With her first husband, actor Tom Cruise, Nicole lived for over 10 years. The couple adopted two children - Isabella Jane and Connor Anthony. There were a lot of rumors around the crisis of their relationship, for example, religious differences, unsuccessful pregnancies and the terms of the marriage contract were mentioned. The actress herself speaks of her ex-husband warmly, recalling with gratitude their life together.

In 2005, the actress met her current husband, Australian singer Keith Urban. She has been married to him since 2006. Their wedding took place in Sydney. The spouse presented the bride with an original gift - the first edition of Emily Bronte's novel "Wuthering Heights" worth $ 200 thousand. And the newlyweds spent all the funds received from the guests of the evening on charity.

In 2008, the family had a daughter, Sunday Rose Kidman-Urban. After 2 years, the second girl was born - Faith Margaret, who was carried by a surrogate mother.

At the turn of 2016-2017, information appeared in the press that 49-year-old Nicole Kidman was pregnant. But given that the previous child was not borne by the actress herself, as well as the desire to adopt a boy from India, it soon became clear that speculation had no real basis. And all the conclusions regarding the "interesting situation" were made on the basis of her increased emotionality and undisguised happiness during the New Year holidays.

However, a possible child could help strengthen the family, which, again, according to rumors, was on the verge of divorce. Although at the beginning of 2017, a married couple glowing with happiness appeared at the Golden Globe awards ceremony, refuting the speculations of reporters.

From her youth, Nicole dreamed of the vocation of a writer and even started a hobby for herself - a personal diary in which she left notes every day. During her creative career, Kidman accumulated literary material, which she wanted to make into an autobiography.

In the book, in addition to the narrative about filming in her best films, she was going to reveal the secrets of her personal life. Including those concerning her marriage to Tom Cruise, relations with adopted children and the struggle of her current husband with drug addiction. According to rumors, a number of publishers offered the actress fabulous royalties for the opportunity to print her memoirs with them.

Leaving aside literary work for a while, the actress in 2017 again presented to the audience her production project - the drama series Big Little Lies, in which she also starred.

The project brought together a stellar cast, which included Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, Alexander Skarsgard. The film was successful, it was noted with several Emmy awards, and the actress herself won a number of television and film awards, including the Golden Globe and Sputnik.

Another work that added to Kidman's repertoire in 2017 is the Western "Fatal Temptation", created by director Sofia Coppola.

Kidman continues to work tirelessly. In 2018, the superhero film "Aquaman" was released. Aquaman is starring Game of Thrones star Jason Momoa, with Nicole playing his mother. Soon the artist's filmography will be replenished with the films "The Disappeared Boy" and "The Destroyer".

Today, the actress still displays a flawless appearance. With a height of 180 cm, its weight does not exceed 58 kg. At one time, Nicole became interested in cosmetic procedures, she used injections of hyaluronic acid, Botox, but soon gave up the manipulation.
