When Meryl Streep says do it, you do it!
may have come to a close, but Kidman's still all about taking the legendary actress' advice. in London on Tuesday, Kidman shared that she took her role as Gretchen Carlson in"I remember Meryl Streep saying to me, when I said, 'Oh, should I play Gretchen Carlson?' She was like, 'Yes, you should.' So when Meryl says, 'Yes, you should,' you do what she says," Kidman said with a laugh.
In all seriousness, the actress couldn't wait to sign onto a film with a story as important as the onetells. The movie centers on female employees at Fox News, and their allegations against founder Roger Ailes. Charlize Theron stars as Megyn Kelly, while Margot Robbie plays Kayla Pospisil. John Lithgow, Connie Britton, Rob Delaney, Kate McKinnon, Allison Janney and more also appear in the movie.
Kidman was honored for her acting work at Tuesday's event, which she said she hopes inspires other actresses to take risks with the roles they take. "A lot of the things that I do are not massive commercial successes, so being recognized allows, I think, parts to be carved for other actresses," she shared."I always want to say that to actors and actresses -- there's so many possibilities. You just have to be ready and... willing and believe in yourself."
