Actress
Nicole
Kidman
revealed
that
much
before
she
became
an
Oscar-winning
actress
and
a
leading
actress
in
the
film
industry,
she
had
to
beg
for
roles.
Kidman
said,
she
had
begged
the
director
Gus
Van
Sant
for
the
role
in
To
Die
For,
which
proved
to
be
a
career-changing
move
for
the
actress.
"No
one
thought
I
could
do
it
and
I
think
the
studio
didn't
want
me,
and
I
think
it
went
through
a
bunch
of
other
actors,
I
called
Gus
and
I
said,
'please,
give
me
the
chance,
I
beg
you,'
because
the
writing
was
so
strong." Kidman
admitted.
"I
said,
'Please,
give
me
the
chance.
I
beg
you.
Because
the
writing
was
so
strong.
Buck
Henry
-
I
mean,
come
on.
Talk
about
great
writing," she
said.
"I'd
come
to
the
states
and
I'd
done
stuff
and
I
fell
in
love
and
I
got
married
and
that
was
really
...
I'm
always
driven
by
love
so
I
can
be
taken
way
off
my
course
of,
'Hey,
I
want
to
be
an
actor'.
I
go,
'Oh,
now
I'm
in
love,
yeah!
I'm
gonna
go
do
this
because
this
is
way
more
fun',"
said
Kidman.
However,
the
actress
said,
she
slowed
down
a
bit
at
the
acting
front
after
her
marriage
with
Tom
Cruise.
"Yeah,
and
also
my
desire
I
think
(got
refocused).
And
then
I
kind
of
got
antsy
and
was
like,
'Gosh
I
wish
I
had
something,
like
a
great
character
like
I
had
in
Australia
when
I
was
young
and
when
I
was,
like,
15."
Kidman
stated
further.
