Nicole Kidman has immersed herself in work following her divorce from Keith Urban, landing nine film and TV roles over the past 18 months. The 58-year-old actress recently turned heads in a sheer Schiaparelli gown at the New York premiere of Margo’s Got Money Troubles, where she posed alongside co-star Elle Fanning, 28. The comedy series debuts on Apple TV+ next week, signaling Kidman’s relentless pace.
Recent and Upcoming Projects
In 2024, Kidman starred in the provocative film Babygirl opposite Harris Dickinson, who is 30 years her junior, and lent her voice to the animated feature Spellbound. Last year, she appeared in the psychological thriller Holland, Netflix’s hit series The Perfect Couple with Liev Schreiber, and the crime drama Scarpetta.
Four more projects lie ahead: Girls and Their Horses, Discretion, The Young People, and Practical Magic 2.
Marriage Breakdown and Family
Kidman’s demanding schedule contributed significantly to the end of her 19-year marriage to country singer Keith Urban, also 58. The couple announced their separation in September, with the divorce finalized in January. Sources indicate Urban confronted Kidman about her frequent unavailability in front of friends.
The former couple shares daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 15, who now reside primarily with Kidman in her $2.5 million Nashville, Tennessee home. Kidman reportedly felt blindsided by the split.
Rumors of New Romance
Last month, speculation arose that Kidman is dating Scarpetta co-star Simon Baker, 58. The pair held hands on the red carpet at the New York premiere. Kidman described their chemistry as one that “just vibrates.” Baker, known for The Devil Wears Prada, responded, “I don’t kiss and tell.”
Baker’s ex-wife, actress Rebecca Rigg—a childhood friend of Kidman—expressed shock and confusion over the rumors. Urban remains devastated, with a close friend stating, “It feels to him like it’s a betrayal because both Nicole and Simon know how much even the hint of a romance between them will hurt him.”
