Can't lie, my heart sank when I read this news. Was really hoping for a film project and not two seasons of this!!

maybe she's preparing herself for an early retirement? otherwise how you can explain these countless mainstream tv shows for amazon/paramount... only money can explain these choices

I kind of guessed when she signed the first look deal with Amazon that they would want their projects quickly.
I was hoping though it would be a chance to work with exciting writers and directors on challenging material like the Expats and the Perfect Nanny.
Not this, it sounds very uninspiring.

I first went ew, having read a few of the Scarpetta novels - there are like 20 of them. FUCKING TWENTY (AND COUNTING). It's bad fiction. Just rubbish. Airport garbage read, if you may. I don't know what attracted her to it. This really really just means she's not getting anything offered.
Sigh. The only silver lining is. The Barry showrunner. Barry was a phenomenal show. Plus may be Blumhouse can do some horror projects with her?
I don't know. Hard to feel excited.I feel weirdly... defeated?

I’m not worried too much just yet. Not all of these announcements will come into fruition. That's always been the case with Nicole. However, I'm wishing for a new MOVIE announcement soon, not just one TV series after another...

The bad ones always came true... hahaha that's so true... well for the moment, the only sure thing is that she will film Holland, Michigan in just about 2 weeks and that she will star in the perfect nanny series because she posted this in her insta stories saying she was exited... now hoping for the moment she doesn't say anything about this project and dies peacefully and is never done (this is coming of someone that would love to see Kidman and Jamie lee curtis on a project, but not this!!!)

I understand your boredom with all these streaming projects, I really miss seeing her on the big screen. However considering that she is working on one series a year, if this ever comes out, maybe it is not scheduled for 2025 or beyond. The most immediate seems to me The Nanny for HBO. But now announce an auteur film, thank you.

,I am sad and annoyed at the same time. While other actresses gets interesting projects, Nicole seems a little lost and just looking for mostly mediocre tv projects, way below her talents...and the solution is in her hands, owning a production company, she can pick and choose roles, she doesn't have to wait for offers, that's how she brilliantly added Rabbit Hole and Big Little Lies to her resume. Once upon a time she was ambitious and aggressive, when pursuing movie roles. I believe that maturity and a more satisfying life may interfere with her career, who can blame her? but her followers and fans of her career, we want her to reach new heights, we want more roles. more accolades, at least one more oscar... we are insatiable creatures. I must confess that Kidman is my one and only obsession, As much as I like Charlize Theron, Monica Bellucci, Judy Dench or Jane Fonda. I only follow Nicole and she is still my favorite actress. I'm concern about the amount of projects, too many in my opinion. If what she wants is to take a break, she should... and then take back her career with some ambitious or at least polarizing movie "A la Kidman".

I for one am glad she's working with Jamie Lee Curtis, I think people should realize the medium is changing and for me more Kidman isn't necessarily a bad thing. From all her recent projects there is only one that I wholly hated and it was 9PS.
Yes we would love to see more auteur driven films more Blanchett type roles, but she never was respected as Blanchett and these big directors won't come to her. Its getting harder to have these films seen i mean Tar and to Leslie both flopped box office wise.
Also its not like she has given us a weak slate , she is coming off an academy award nomination and just did an auteur driven film last year "the northman " , where she gave a devious fascinating performance.
Then her upcoming projects to me are diverse with The expats tv ( suburb drama) The family affair (slap stick comedy) Holland Michigan (film noir thriller) Lioness (political thriller)
I'm sure we will get new film announcements soon but I also understand where alot of you guys are coming from and that this expectation is becoming quite heavy, I dont think she's forgotten her essence so I'm not worried, its just that post Oscar lull.

Jamie Lee Curtis shares on her Instagram, she says it was leaked and wasn't supposed to be announced but confirms kidman will play the lead role. https://www.instagram.com/p/CoasFeCSXpK I didn't realize they were taking a long time to get this book done. To be honest I've never even heard of it before.
