Nicole Kidman’s Future Films
The later part of the decade has been rough for Nicole Kidman, with much scorn and criticisms thrown upon her, not to mention all the botox issues. After winning an Oscar in 2003 for The Hours, she was in a hot streak, winning acclaim in films like Dogville, Cold Mountain and Birth. However, 2005 was the start of Nicole Kidman’s downfall. She starred in Bewitched, remake of the classic TV series starring Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York. The film was panned by many critics, with Kidman potentially getting nominated for a Razzie. Her next film, Fur, did not receive much attention for its mediocrity. Her next film, The Invasion, was definitely a career-devastating piece of work. The film bombed at the box office and critics found it “putrid” or “rotten”. She was again a potential Razzie nominee but it did not push through. However, her next film, The Golden Compass, won her acclaim, as well as Margot at the Wedding. She next starred in Australia, the big-budget epic film directed by Moulin Rouge! director Baz Luhrmann. She was then criticized in the film, with some critics calling her performance “stiff”, “ludicrous”, “vapid” and “brittle”. Again, she was censured in Nine, with people saying her performance as “stiff” but the bashing was lesser. Her next film, Rabbit Hole, tells about a story of a mother who loses her son in a car accident only to find solace in the man who killed his son. The film sounds very promising, as it won Cynthia Nixon a Tony Award. Not only that, it is directed by a very brilliant director, John Cameron Mitchell. Special screenings have people say it is a good film, with Kidman giving a powerful performance. Indeed, she does. It is a drama film. She is good in that field. She will not disappoint us here. Her future film, The Danish Girl, which tells about the first man to ever have sex change, may be doubtful but hopefully it may turn out well. Another is Just Go With It, a rom-com starring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. Kidman plays a supporting role, maybe a cameo, similar to Tom Cruise’s role in Tropic Thunder. Hopefully, she gets the same fate as Cruise, getting nominated for a Golden Globe. If she gets nominated, it will be her eighth Golden Globe nomination. The Eighth Wonder, a big-budget film similar to Indiana Jones, is under wraps. This MAY become a box office failure, but maybe if moviegoers trust Kidman more, this will be a success. The Rivals, At The End of the Spectra and How To Marry a Millionaire is also on the way. Maybe Rabbit Hole may usher in a new decade for Nicole Kidman. A new start for Nicole Kidman. The Rebirth of Nicole Kidman.
