Nicole Kidman Premieres “Australia” in NYC

Following an appearance on the “Late Show with David Letterman” earlier in the day, Nicole Kidman fit in a quick change of clothes before heading off to the New York City premiere of her new movie “Australia” on Monday night (November 24).

Held at the Ziegfeld Theater, the Oscar-winning actress struck a few poses on the red carpet solo before swapping back and forth between her hubby Keith Urban and co-star Hugh Jackman.

In theaters worldwide on Wednesday (November 26), “Australia” is an epic saga set in the days leading up to World War II. In the film, “Nicole plays Lady Sarah Ashley, and English aristocrat who reluctantly teams up with Hugh’s Drover, a rough-and-tumble local who guides her to the land she inherited.”

Talking about how tough it was shooting the film, Jackman told press, “Both Nic and I fainted; I fainted on the first day, which I think set the tone for the movie. There were dust storms, we had floods, and yet we loved every minute of it.”
