Nicole Kidman Has Now Worked With 27 Women Directors in 8 Years; She Urges ‘Financial Mentors’ to Invest in Unknown Female Filmmakers and ‘Take a Risk’


Nicole Kidman joined the Kering Women in Motion Talks and Cannes to discuss her commitment to uplifting women directors.

Ahead of the awards dinner, Kidman joined Variety’s Angelique Jackson for a Kering Woman in Motion talk in which the Oscar winner spoke passionately about her commitment to uplifting female directors. It’s no surprise, then, that Kidman’s filmography since 2017 is a mix of industry veterans (Karyn Kusama, Susanne Bier) and newcomers (Halina Reijn, Mimi Cave). Her most recent theatrical release was Reijn’s “Babygirl,” and Cave’s suburban thriller “Holland” started streaming on Prime Video this spring.
