Nicole Kidman Inks First-Look Deal With Amazon Studios For TV, Film & Digital
Nicole Kidman has signed a first-look deal with
Amazon Studios for features, television series and digital content. Under the pact,
Amazon and Kidman’s
Blossom Films will develop original series that will be available exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, as well as movies for theatrical release.
“Nicole is a force of nature as both an actress and a producer,” said Jennifer Salke, Head of Amazon Studios. “She understands the focus of bringing addictive, entertaining and compelling television to our Prime Video customers as well as movies that will connect with film audiences. Stay tuned for many exciting projects to come in the very near future!”
Blossom Films, created by Kidman and Per Saari, executive-produced the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning limited series
Big Little Lies for HBO. In 2010, they produced the feature film
Rabbit Hole, which earned Kidman both Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations, as well as the film
The Family Fang. Blossom Films is now filming the second season of
Big Little Lies, directed by Andrea Arnold.
Among Blossom’s development titles is an adaptation of off-Broadway vampire hit
Cuddles. With their
Big Little Lies co-producers Reese Witherspoon and Bruna Papandrea, Blossom Films is also adapting Liane Moriarty’s novel
Truly Madly Guilty into a limited series.
Big Little Lies is currently in production on season two for HBO. Blossom’s next project is David E. Kelley’s limited series
The Undoing for HBO, which will go into production in 2019 and star Kidman.
“I’m excited to start working with Jen Salke and the Amazon team.” said Kidman. “Our goal at Blossom Films is to create important and entertaining content across multiple platforms, and I can’t think of better collaborators with which to accomplish this.”
