Nicole Kidman’s co-star recalls ‘astonishing’ moment actress was taken to HOSPITAL after filming scenes for new show

Oh my god, you won’t BELIEVE this! Nicole Kidman, my absolute queen, was apparently SO sick, but she still pushed through filming her new show, ‘Margo’s Got Money Troubles’! Can you imagine? A true professional, obviously, but then she had to be rushed to the hospital! I’m so worried about her, but honestly, even sick, she’s a legend for working through it. I just hope she gets better soon!

Oh my gosh, you guys, I was reading People magazine and Nick Offerman – yes, the Nick Offerman! – was talking about working with Nicole Kidman! He said there was this astonishing moment on set, and I’m just dying to know what it was! He told People about it on Wednesday, and honestly, it’s all I’ve been thinking about since. I need details! It must have been incredible if he was so amazed!

Let me tell you, I was so excited to see Nicole Kidman join the cast! She plays Lace, a really interesting character – a former pro wrestler who’s reinvented herself as a lawyer. She made her first appearance alongside Nick Offerman and Elle Fanning, and the scene was fantastic. It’s great to see such a talented actress take on a role with so much depth.

Offerman described a large-scale scene involving hundreds of extras where Kidman’s character, Lace, and his own character, Jinx – both retired wrestlers – met again during a fan convention, specifically in a wrestling ring.

He explained that they’ll be starting their day with warm-ups, and some of the team will be participating in wrestling matches. They’re also pairing up and working with partners.

The film’s pivotal scene nearly didn’t happen when everyone found out Nicole Kidman was down with the flu.

He remembered being told that Nicole was sick with the flu and might not be able to come. They were really disappointed because they’d put a lot of effort into preparing for just this one day.

We received the news around 8:00 a.m. Then, around 11:00 a.m., we found out Nicole was on her way.

Kidman kept her promise and arrived on set, but Offerman quickly noticed she was very ill.

The actress looked ‘so pale, shaken,’ according to Offerman. ‘She just had the flu really so bad.’

Despite battling the flu, Kidman ‘showed up and made sure that we got every shot of her.

He raved about her dedication, saying Nicole Kidman gave them everything they needed to fully realize her character without any compromises.

Once the shooting wrapped for the day, Kidman ‘was literally taken to the hospital for an IV.’ 

Kidman’s resilience and commitment to the show left Offerman in total awe of her.

I told her I already thought highly of her, but that’s what separates someone like Nicole Kidman – consistently showing up and ensuring her work doesn’t lose its impact, even for a moment.

‘It was so generous. It was astonishing,’ Offerman said.

Margo’s Got Money Troubles is the latest in a string of new projects for Kidman.

The show, featuring Michelle Pfeiffer, centers around a young mother who is having a hard time financially.

The movie follows a woman who starts an OnlyFans account after getting unexpected advice from her distant father, a former professional wrestler. While she finds success online, she begins to question whether the price of internet fame is worth it.

The new series Margo’s Got Money Troubles, created by David E. Kelley – known for Big Little Lies – launched on April 15th with its first three episodes available to watch.

Episodes will air on Wednesdays on Apple TV+ until the series finale on May 20. 

Before news about Margo’s financial difficulties surfaced, Nicole Kidman attended the premiere of her Amazon Prime Video thriller, Scarpetta, where she stars as forensic pathologist Kay Scarpetta.

Fans of Nicole Kidman were thrilled recently when the trailer for the highly anticipated sequel, Practical Magic 2, finally dropped online.

Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock are returning as their characters Gillian and Sally in a new movie that continues the story from their popular 1998 film.

This romantic comedy tells the story of two sisters who go to live with their family after losing their parents.

Raised by their quirky aunts in a small town, two siblings with a talent for practical magic must navigate prejudice and a curse that could prevent them from finding true love. They’ll need to use their gifts to overcome the challenges they face.

The cast of Practical Magic 2 includes Dianne Wiest, Stockard Channing, alongside younger stars Joey King, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña, and Solly McLeod.
