Renowned actress Nicole Kidman recently opened up about her former husband Tom Cruise in a revealing interview with the Los Angeles Times. The pair famously starred together in Stanley Kubrick’s film “Eyes Wide Shut,” which celebrated its 25th anniversary this year.
Kidman shared insights about working with Kubrick on the challenging film, noting how the director expertly navigated the complexities of their on-screen relationship. She also reflected on the unique dynamics on set, including the close bond between Cruise and Kubrick.
The actress recalled spending two years shooting the film, during which she and Cruise lived in a modest trailer. Despite having a home nearby, they embraced the immersive experience of filming and even picked up some cooking skills from their co-star Sydney Pollack.
Kidman and Cruise were married for 11 years, sharing two adopted children before divorcing in 2001. Despite rarely discussing their relationship in public, Kidman candidly shared her emotional journey following their split, including her struggles and subsequent search for love.
Following their divorce, both Kidman and Cruise found happiness in new relationships. Kidman met musician Keith Urban at a G’Day USA event, and they tied the knot in 2006. Cruise married actress Katie Holmes the same year, welcoming their daughter Suri into the world.
These days, Kidman and Cruise have both moved on to new chapters in their lives, but the legacy of “Eyes Wide Shut” and their time together continues to be a poignant part of their shared history.
