A move that is part of Kidman's broader effort to fight for women's representation in Hollywood.

In a recent interview he gave to the magazine Glamour, the Australian actress talked about her decision to work, from now on, with a female director, every 18 months.

"As an actor, you are as good as the suggestions you get," Kidman said. "And there were no women to offer me things."

"If you analyze this fact, you realize that there are no women to offer you jobs because they do not have the opportunities to do so. I work to raise money for women's cancers. I use my voice against violence against women. "So I thought, 'I need to be part of a movement that, ideally, will change the statistics in my field,'" Kidman said.

The actress had originally made that promise in May, in Cannes, thus responding to the statistics for women directors in cinema and television.

"Only 4.2% of women directed major films in 2016," she told The Beguiled. "There were 4.000 TV series last year, and only 183 women directed them. That says it all".

Kidman used two of her upcoming projects as an example to show her efforts to change the landscape for future female directors, such as her daughter.

Let's go "," OK Karyn Kkusama "-it will be the next one I will work with-" we may not have a huge budget, but let's do it. I will enter the trenches with you ". My 9 year old daughter wants to become a director now. He has the view that "the whole world is mine". He does not realize that, in fact, he is not. "

Kidman co-stars with Karyn Kusama in "Destroyer," a police thriller, and with Rebecca Miller in "She Came To Me," a modern-day opera-comedy starring Steve Carell and Amy Schumer.
