In the upcoming film “Destroyer,” Nicole Kidman is barely recognizable, donning prosthetics that change her nose and bone structure to play a Los Angeles cop traumatized by an undercover operation gone wrong. But Kidman told TheWrap she hopes her face doesn’t take the audience’s attention from her performance.
“As an actor, I’m so protective of my characters, so it hurts my feelings if the nose is…about that performance,” the actress said at the Toronto International Film Festival. “If it’s brought down to the physical, then I didn’t do my job properly.”
Kidman knows all too well how a physical attribute can cause a stir — having famously donned a bulbous prosthetic nose for her role as 20th-century author Virginia Woolf in the 2002 drama “The Hours.”
“It’s my job to push through all of that,” Kidman told TheWrap’s Matt Donnelly.
