I'm sure being emotionally drained only helped her performance in Destroyer.
Oh God my expectations are so high with this performance, I hope I don't get disappointed.

Same, i just can't wait to see this film. and i really hope it lives up to the expectations. I'm only talking about the performance, it will be a nice treat if the film is as good as the performance, but most importantly for me personally is seeing Nicole in every frame for two hours in a powerful, different new performance.

Destroyer to open St. Louis International Film Festival on 01st of November Director & writer is going to be there, No Nicole. SLIFF’s opening night features “Destroyer,” directed by native St. Louisan Karyn Kusama (“Girlfight,” “The Invitation”), who receives SLIFF’s Charles Guggenheim Cinema St. Louis Award. “Destroyer” follows the moral and existential odyssey of LAPD detective Erin Bell (Oscar® winner Nicole Kidman, who also stars in “Boy Erased” at this year’s fest). As a young cop, Erin was placed undercover with a gang in the California desert with tragic results. When Silas (Toby Kebbell), the darkly charismatic leader of the gang, re-emerges many years later, she must work her way back through the remaining members to finally reckon with the demons that destroyed her past www.cinemastlouis.org/sliff/2018/opening-night-reception-with-destroyer

I think the trailer is really well received in social media, you have so many people posting videos reacting to the trailer , which i thought some of them are hilarious & talking about how shocking is her transformation, the comments online are very encouraging, people who into action films are loving the trailer, everyone talks Oscars nominations in the comments section, the media coverage is pretty full on once the trailer came out. The LA time here talks about the Trailer & Kidman's potential for Oscar Nods. www.nytimes.com/2018/10/19/movies/trailers-best-worst.htmlMs. Kidman could also be up for best supporting actress for her performance as the conflicted mother of a gay son in “Boy Erased,” but it’s her bracing turn as a Los Angeles cop haunted by an undercover operation gone bad in the director Karyn Kusama’s drama that might put her in the best actress ranks. The first trailer pours on the critical praise, and Ms. Kidman’s intense line readings and starkly deglamorized appearance seem to back up the raves.

Very nice review from London FF: www.theskinny.co.uk/film/new-releases/lff-2018-destroyer4/5 Kidman will be the subject of much press for this role, as beautiful actors who dress down for gritty roles usually are. She’s caked in makeup, looking like some kind of cross between Charlize Theron in Monster, Linda Blair in The Exorcist and Meg Ryan in In the Cut. And she stumbles across the screen snarling with rage – there’s an aggression to this performance unseen in her previous work.

I guess, it make sense... www.indiewire.com/2018/11/if-beale-street-could-talk-release-december-14-annapurna-oscars-1202018096/ And Kusama’s thriller will open in three theaters: the Arclight in Los Angeles, and in New York Landmark 57th St., and a downtown theater to be determined. It’s an awards run for Nicole Kidman, who gives an acclaimed performance, and the dates that follow allow Annapurna to capitalize on any attention with additional theaters January 4 in advance of a wider national break January 25.

Destroyer probably gonna miss the MLK day, and the super bowl weekend is a cold market. but no need to fight against giant competitors either. so with The Upside, two different Nic in theaters at the same time is very exciting.

Box office will be difficult especially if they're going to wait till the end of January to go semi wide. However, if Destroyer doesn't get anything awards recognition of note ie Kidman noms then it'll most likely end up on streaming platforms in February.
