Despite success as a producer, Nicole will not direct a movie

Nicole Kidman
When Nicole Kidman was honoured with the AFI (American Film Institute) Life Achievement Award recently, she spent a considerable portion of her speech thanking the directors she has worked with over the years. However, the respect for the job does not mean she has any desire to step behind the camera herself.
“I feel like I would be a terrible director because I always have so many ideas. A director has to make choices, and that’s not my strong suit,” Kidman told an international publication during the AFI red carpet, noting that a producer’s duties much more align with her interests. She elaborated, “I am good at being passionate and supporting the voices, reading a script and going, ‘I love this script,’ or seeing somebody and going, ‘I love this actor, I love this director, how do I support them?’
