The 5ft 11in actor was once nicknamed Stalky but still conquered Hollywood. Now she wants to empower other women. <\/p>
You don\u2019t get much more Hollywood than Nicole Kidman. She has looked like a natural-born film star since the day, 36 years ago, when she walked onto the set of the psychological thriller Dead Calm. Now, four decades on, the Oscar-winning actress is as likely to be seen on the small screen as she is on film.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s extraordinary, beyond the fact that we now accept that Hollywood stars routinely turn up on television, is that in the 1980s someone like Kidman \u2013 who\u2019s 5ft 11in \u2013 could be told they were too tall to make it, as she reveals in her interview in this week\u2019s issue of Radio Times<\/strong> magazine and the Radio Times Podcas<\/a>t<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
