A second season of HBO's Big Little Lies is still up in the air, but Nicole Kidman told ET in March that she would love to do more.
"I would love to [do more TV] actually," she revealed. "I've really enjoyed it. I mean, the great thing about this is there were such fantastic roles for five women, but you know, people are watching it around the world, which is really fun. A couple of people in Australia are calling me [and have] been emailing me, texting me, going, ‘What happens next? What happens next?’ So, that’s fun."
