While she usually commands $10 million+ for a movie, she is willing to receive only $500,000 for her role in Eucalyptus (2006). Produced by Fox Searchlight, its financing guideline shows that each actor signed on to its project can receive no more than $500,000 to keep the cost low. This movie will be produced in Australia which is another reason why Kidman decided to accept it.
Frequently does her own nude scenes, declining to use body doubles.
Replaced Rene Russo as Dr. Chase Meridian in Batman Forever (1995) when Val Kilmer replaced Michael Keaton.
Likes the poetry of Anne Carson and the writing of Phillip Larkin.
Writes short stories in her free time and hopes to publish them one day.
Her Chanel Number 5 ad is the most expensive ad to date costing $11 million a minute (The ad is three minutes long). This makes her a Guinness World Record holder for highest-paid television commercial actress (as of 2004).
Good friends with Russell Crowe.
