Nicole Kidman is not slowing down her acting career despite the personal upheaval of her split from singer Keith Urban after 19 years of marriage. The 58-year-old will team up with actress Elle Fanning for a new A24 legal thriller, Discretion, which she will star in and executive produce, Paramount+ announced Monday. The eight-episode drama series is set to follow legal summer associate Lenny (Fanning) as she discovers her powerful firm’s dark secrets, setting her on a collision course with the firm’s influential partner and her mentor Sharon (Kidman). The series is adapted from New York Times’ best-selling author Chandler Baker’s short story. Baker will be writing and executive producing the series alongside Susannah Grant, who wrote Erin Brokovich. Production will begin in 2026 and the series will launch on Paramount+. The news of the series comes after Kidman filed for divorce from Urban on Sept. 30 in Nashville, Tennessee, where they live and share a home with their two daughters. An insider told People magazine that the Oscar-winning actress “didn’t want this” and “has been fighting to save the marriage” since they separated over the summer. “She feels very betrayed,” a source told the magazine.
