    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 Paramount Pictures chief ex ecutive 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."
