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 at the New York premiere of Margo’s Got Money Troubles, donning a sheer Schiaparelli gown on the red carpet alongside co-star Elle Fanning, 28. The comedy series debuts on Apple TV+ next week, signaling her relentless pace shows no signs of slowing.
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. The previous year brought roles 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.
Impact on Personal Life
Kidman’s demanding schedule reportedly contributed to the end of her 19-year marriage to country singer Keith Urban, also 58. The couple announced their split in September, with the divorce finalized in January. Sources indicate Urban confronted her about her frequent unavailability in front of friends.
The pair share daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 15, who now reside primarily with Kidman at her $3.2 million Nashville home. She appeared blindsided by the separation.
Rumors of New Romance
Speculation surfaced last month that Kidman is dating Scarpetta co-star Simon Baker, 58. The duo held hands at the show’s New York premiere, where Kidman described their chemistry as one that “just vibrates.” Baker, known for The Devil Wears Prada, responded coyly: “I don’t kiss and tell.”
Baker’s ex-wife, actress Rebecca Rigg and Kidman’s childhood friend, expressed shock and confusion over the reports. A close friend of Kidman and Urban revealed the singer feels deeply hurt by the rumors, viewing them as a betrayal given the sensitivity around any perceived romance.
