Nicole Kidman isn’t just one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actresses — she’s also one of the wealthiest. With a career spanning more than four decades, the Oscar winner has built an empire that includes blockbuster movie paychecks, anthem television roles, lucrative producing credits and savvy real estate investments. In 2025, her fortune proves she’s still at the very best of her game.
What Is Nicole Kidman’s Net Worth in 2025?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Kidman’s estimated net worth sits at an astounding $250 million. The 58-year-old actress has made millions from her acting and producing salaries, endorsement deals, and property holdings across the U.S. and Australia. She was even named Hollywood’s highest-paid actress in 2024, according to Forbes.
Kidman first became a household name thanks to films like Moulin Rouge!, Eyes Wide Shut and her Oscar-winning performance in The Hours. More recently, she reprised her role as Masha in Nine Perfect Strangers Season 2, filmed in Austria. The actress admitted the freezing night shoots were “physically demanding,” and while her daughters joined her overseas, they preferred to stay away from set.
How Did Nicole Kidman Become Famous?
Although she’s famously Australian, Kidman was actually born in Honolulu, Hawaii, while her parents were living in the U.S. on educational visas. She got her start in Australian films such as Bush Christmas and BMX Bandits, before landing her Hollywood breakout in 1989’s Dead Calm. A year later, she starred opposite then-husband Tom Cruise in Days of Thunder. In 2003, she became the first Australian actress to win an Academy Award for Best Actress.
Despite her superstar status, Kidman told Vanity Fair in 2022 she’s still hesitant to embrace the “movie star” label. “I’m just still in that place of going, ‘I’m not quite sure what defines a movie star,’” she said. “My job is to stay feeling-centric, and emotional, and committed, and interested, and a seeker.”
Through her production company, Blossom Films, which she launched in 2010 with Per Saari, Kidman has produced acclaimed projects including Rabbit Hole, The Undoing, Nine Perfect Strangers and Big Little Lies. Speaking about producing, she told Parade, “One of the highlights of my life [was] having that and being able to bring it to the world in the way that we have.”
