A BELOVED thriller is returning after five years off screens as Nicole Kidman announces its comeback against all the odds. <\/p>\n
Nicole, 56, revealed the exciting news<\/span> during an on stage interview after she was asked about her favourite roles.<\/p>\n She said: "I loved Moulin Rouge, but I loved Big Little Lies."<\/p>\n As the audience cheered in approval, she continued: "It sort of came along in a time in my life where I had my children and I was thinking I was going to retire, and then this situation came along where Reese Witherspoon and I were able to produce that show and create that show.<\/p>\n "Then all of you watched it and made it a massive success."<\/p>\n She then added: "We\u2019ll be bringing you a third one just FYI."<\/p>\n Big Little Lies starred Nicole and Reese, as well as Zoe Kravitz, Laura Dern, Meryl Streep and Shailene Woodley. <\/p>\n The series is based on Liane Moriarty\u2019s novel and follows a group of upper-middle-class mums in a small Californian town, whose lives are rocked by a murder.<\/p>\n The first series aired in 2017, while the second followed in 2019. <\/p>\n Season one received 16 Primetime Emmy nominations – winning eight – as well as four Golden Globes, including Best Miniseries or Television Film<\/span>. <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n However, co-star Zoe had previously expressed her doubts at the show returning for a third series following the death of the show's director, Jean-Marc Vall\u00e9e. <\/p>\n Jean-Marc died in 2021 at age 58 due to a fatal cardiac arrhythmia, and Zoe said in a TikTok video last year: "I don't think it is [returning].<\/p>\n "We talked about doing a\u00a0season three\u00a0a lot and, unfortunately,\u00a0Jean-Marc Vall\u00e9e, our\u00a0incredible director, passed away this last year and\u00a0I just can't imagine going on without him."<\/p>\n She added: "He really was the visionary for that show. So, unfortunately, it's done."<\/p>\n
