Nicole Kidman explains why she said 'hell yeah' to Special Ops: Lioness
Nicole Kidman and Zoe Saldana are big names with lots in common - they’ve both played superheroes, they’re international superstars and they’re acting together in Paramount+ thriller Special Ops: Lioness. However, it was the pair’s identical star signs that ultimately forged their friendship on set.
The duo star as CIA agents in this spy drama, with Zoe playing Joe - a spook tasked with surveilling the daughter of a notorious terrorist. Working under the agency’s Lioness Programme, which is inspired by a real-life US Military project, Joe must operate undercover alongside an aggressive Marine Raider to prevent the next 9/11 from happening.
“I approached it first and foremost because of [creator Taylor Sheridan] and Nicole. That was a premium package,” the 45-year-old says. “When it was first coming to fruition and Taylor was writing it, it was great because we would feed him ideas and he would run with it,” the 56-year-old says. “To see what he was going to do with these women with this background, I was like, ‘Hell yeah!’”
