Nicole Kidman 'up for' bringing together all her TV characters into one show
Nicole Kidman would be "up for" uniting all her TV characters into one show. The 57-year-old actress - who has appeared in programmes including 'Nine Perfect Strangers', 'Big Little Lies', 'The Undoing' and 'The Perfect Couple' in recent years - is always "game" for a new challenge and thinks it would be "hilarious" to bring all of her alter egos together. Asked about the possibility, she told People magazine: 'That's hilarious. I'd be up for it. 'As you know, I'm up for most things. I like to be able to say I'm game. So I'm always ready to try things. 'I have a huge passion for what I do. I love doing what I do, and I've been incredibly fortunate in my journey, and I'm just always a bit excited. I don't take any of it for granted. I'm like, 'Okay, thank you. Thank you, universe.' " Nicole can next be seen reprising her role as lifestyle guru Masha in a new series of 'Nine Perfect Strangers' and she was thrilled to get the chance to play such a "shark" again. Asked why she signed on for a second season, she said: 'Because she's fun and powerful, and [castmate] Maisie [Richardson-Sellers] said something like, 'Masha sharks it.' So I was like, 'What does that mean?' But I think that means she's a shark. She comes in, and I don't get to play sharks very often." Despite being "up for" most things professionally, Nicole insisted she won't be enlisting husband Keith Urban - the father of her daughters Sunday, 16, and 14-year-old Faith - to be her co-star in any of her TV shows or movies. She said: 'We're together in life, so we don't need to do our show together. Our life is a show.' The 'Babygirl' star - who also has Isabella, 32, and Connor, 30, with her ex-husband Tom Cruise - has also turned her attention to producing but teased recently that she is "still finding [her] voice behind the camera, and hopes her "best work" is still to come, having been mentored by the likes of former Paramound Pictures chief executive Sherry Lansing. She told HELLO! Magazine: "I love the involvement and the collaboration that being a producer offers. "I've had an amazing group of mentors and people who have pushed me. "But I'm still finding my voice, and I'm hoping that I haven't done my best work yet."

Sarah Jessica Parker 'Shocked' By Unpopularity Of ‘AJLT's Che Diaz, Says She Loved Working With Sara Ramirez
With the arrival of season three of And Just Like That, the sequel to Sex and the City, viewers have noticed the absence of Sara Ramirez as Che Diaz, a non-binary stand up comedian who was previously the love interest of Miranda (Cynthia Nixon). The character proved polarising with fans, with some critics describing her as a caricature of queer culture and an example of how the show has clumsily tried to update itself for the reboot.

Kelley Is "Hopeful" For 'Big Little Lies' Season 3: "We All Want To Do It Again" Sydney Sweeney Teases 'Euphoria' Season 3: "Cassie Is Crazy" Mickey Down & Konrad Kay Reveal The Tarantino-esque Series They Were Working On Before 'Industry' - SXSW London Now, star and producer Sarah Jessica Parker has said she was 'shocked' to discover the character was so deeply disliked. Parker told The Guardian newspaper this weekend: 'A friend of mine brought it up to me, and it's like: 'What are you talking about?' And he said: 'Yeah, there's all this conversation.' 'I've been an actor for 50 years, and I've almost never paid attention to peripheral chatter. I loved working with them.' As for her own character Carrie, on her enduring romantic rollercoaster supported by the more constant consolations of her friends and her love of fashion, Parker said she was delighted by the use of the word 'antihero' to describe her. 'I prefer that to any other description of her, because it allows her to be as male as the men have been. I love The Sopranos so much, and I look at all the times [Tony] was unlawful, and we loved him. Carrie has an affair and everybody falls apart. 'An antihero, to me, is somebody that's not behaving in conventional ways, and she hasn't ever… A lot of people love her too, though!' Sex and the City ran for 94 episodes between 1998 and 2004. The third season of And Just Like That is currently airing on HBO Max.

David E. Kelley Is 'Hopeful' For ‘Big Little Lies' Season 3: 'We All Want To Do It Again'
David E. Kelley is just as eager for the continuation of Big Little Lies as the cast and fans of the HBO serialized adaptation of the Liane Moriarty novel. In a recent interview with People, the veteran TV writer-producer said he is 'hopeful' about Season 3, which would come more than six years after the conclusion of the sophomore installment. More from Deadline 'Harry Potter': Bertie Carvel To Play Cornelius Fudge In HBO Series Sydney Sweeney Teases 'Euphoria' Season 3: "Cassie Is Crazy" Sarah Jessica Parker "Shocked" By Unpopularity Of 'AJLT's Che Diaz, Says She Loved Working With Sara Ramirez 'We're hoping it happens,' the show creator, who recently accepted the Visionary Award at the Gotham TV Awards, said. 'We had a great time doing the first two seasons and we all want to do it again. I'm hopeful it'll happen.' Though the main cast — Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern and Zoë Kravitz — have largely expressed interest in returning, the quintet of Monterey moms are not yet 'under contract.' In recent months, Kravitz has expressed that she is 'waiting by the phone' for any news of forward movement. 'You need to corral a lot of high-caliber talent and their publicists, but everyone is very committed to it,' the Presumed Innocent creator stated, adding that it was 'pretty nice to hear' that the actresses were game to return. News of a third season first began percolating when Kidman first let it slip that HBO was working on a continuation of the moody, seaside-set crime drama. In the fall of last year, HBO boss Casey Bloys said the delay was attributed to the need for sequel source material from Moriarty, who announced she was developing a followup to her original novel, which will feature a time jump and new characters. With Moriarty still penning the book, Kelley said the project is 'still very premature.' He concluded, 'We haven't really all gotten together to brainstorm yet, but again, it's a great stable of talent. Once we do [get together], I think we have a good shot of figuring it out.'

Walton Goggins' Wife Nadia Finally Breaks Silence on ‘Other Woman' Allegations About Aimee Lou Wood
Weeks after the news exploded about a reported feud between Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood, it seems it all dissipated. And now, Goggins' wife, Nadia Conners, is putting in her two cents, specifically about those romance rumors between her husband and Wood. Recently, Conners, with whom Goggins has been married to since Aug 2011, said in a recent interview with Hello! Magazine, what she thinks about those 'other woman' rumors. 'It's odd to see it, but it's an indication of how much people were invested in the fictional characters,' she said. 'I take it as a sign that he's become quite popular.' More from SheKnows Aimee Lou Wood & Walton Goggins Made This Subtle Move to Squash Rumors Ahead of the 2025 Met Gala Now, here's a recap that has internet sleuths going into overdrive. Earlier this year, Goggins and Wood unfollowed each other almost instantly after the season finale of The White Lotus aired, except fans noticed Wood still follows Goggins' one account: Walton Goggins Goggle Glasses. Before that, though, fellow co-star John Isaacs started feud rumors months prior in Feb 2025. Then came Goggins and Wood's starkly different responses to the White Potus SNL skit: where Wood called out how they portrayed her, and Goggins couldn't stop praising the skit even after Wood's feelings were publicized. There was also the possibility of them working together again soon, the Instagram story artwork, and him publicly praising her. However, at the 2025 Met Gala, they squashed feud rumors for good, but the romance rumors remained. The pair played on-screen lovers in The White Lotus, and everyone started to assume an affair took place after certain photos came out. Not only was there Goggins' majorly long post featuring selfie after selfie with Wood, but there were photos shared on a Reddit thread that were taken between takes, with the pair looking rather close. And now, Conners is coyly, but swiftly, shutting the rumors of SheKnows All the Best Photos of Jackie Kennedy With Her Young Kids JFK Jr. & Caroline Kennedy Kristen Stewart, Keke Palmer, & More Stars Who Had Dramatic Hair Changes Every Celebrity Who Put Their Own Spin on the Little Black Dress Trend
