Nicole Kidman Says Big Little Lies Season 3 in ‘Good Shape’

Nicole Kidman and her “Big Little Lies” co-star Reese Witherspoon reunited for a recent Vanity Fair video interview and briefly discussed a possible third season of their Emmy-winning HBO series. Kidman has repeatedly spoken publicly about the progress of Season 3 of “Big Little Lies,” to which Witherspoon has now said, “This one has already said too much.”

“I got excited,” Kidman admitted about letting news of Season 3 of “Big Little Lies” slip prematurely. ‘We must remain silent. There’s this whole thing about how you should never talk about something until you’ve done it, because if you talk about doing it, then it’s the dopamine hit of doing it and you feel like you’ve done it. It is a scientific study.”

But that didn’t stop Kidman from talking about “Big Little Lies” season 3 again, as she gave this update to fans: “We’re moving fast and furious. Vine [Moriarty] delivers the book. We are in good shape.”

Kidman told it Variety in January that she and Witherspoon were texting “every day” about a third season, and then she said in an interview with Elle magazine in March that her daughter, Sunday Rose, was partially responsible for getting season 3 of ‘Big Little Lies’. ground. Sunday demanded another season after finishing season 2 and even had some criticism of her mother’s character arc.

“My daughter is the one who watched both series and said, ‘Okay, there’s no question, there has to be a third one,’” Kidman said, adding that Sunday gave her notes on character development. “She says, ‘Celeste, she can’t handle it in the second one, what is she doing? I could somewhat understand Mary Louise’s point of view. ”

Celeste is the character played by Kidman. In the show’s second season, Celeste and her friends must keep the truth about the death of Celeste’s husband (played by Alexander Skarsgård in the first season) a secret from his bullying mother, Mary Louise (Meryl Streep).

HBO and Max content chairman/CEO Casey Bloys said Variety earlier this year that he is ready for season 3 of “Big Little Lies.”

“When you have all these stars, you have to get their schedules in order, we have to get it written,” Bloys said. “So there is still a lot to be done. It’s very early stages at the moment. The whole cast is doing shows and movies, and everyone is very busy. But it is a very special group. They like to work together. And if they come up with an idea, I believe they will make it happen. We are happy when they are ready, and we will take those steps when they are ready.”
