Nicole Kidman makes a comeback to television screens in the Apple TV+ series “Margo’s Got Money Troubles” following a challenging year, but viewers may find it hard to recognize the renowned actress. The news of Kidman’s split from her spouse of 19 years surfaced last September, revealing that they had been living separately since the beginning of summer.
In her first major TV role post-divorce, the 58-year-old will portray a enigmatic character mediating between Margo (played by Elle Fanning) and her former partner Mark (Michael Angarano) in the much-anticipated drama adapted from Rufi Thorpe’s novel.
The plot revolves around Margo Millet, the offspring of a wrestler and a Hooters waitress, who turns to OnlyFans after becoming pregnant by her college professor. Initial images of Kidman in the wrestling-themed show alongside WWE legend Chris Jericho surprised fans, eliciting reactions like “I thought Nicole Kidman in the ring was AI!”
Additional sneak peek images from Elle magazine showcase Elle Fanning in unconventional attire, Michelle Pfeiffer as Shyanne (Margo’s mother), and a stellar cast including Nick Offerman, Thaddea Graham, and Greg Kinnear.
This project marks Kidman’s fourth collaboration with TV producer David E. Kelley, following their work on successful series like “Big Little Lies,” “Nine Perfect Strangers,” and “The Undoing.”
Amidst her divorce, reports surfaced of Kidman feeling blindsided as her ex-husband Keith Urban allegedly moved on with a younger partner shortly after their separation. The couple, who share two daughters, finalized their split citing irreconcilable differences, with Kidman reportedly feeling hurt and betrayed, having fought to salvage their relationship.
Following the divorce announcement, Urban modified lyrics of a song inspired by Kidman to reference his new female guitarist, a move that stirred further speculation and emotions surrounding their separation.
