Although Kidman definitely looks the part now, her casting decision came as a surprise to many fans.
One wrote on Instagram, “I can’t imagine her playing Lucy. Nicole is too genteel. Lucy was loud and blunt. We’ll see.”
Another commented, “Bad casting choice… she looks nothing like Lucy even with the makeup on. Should have been [Debra Messing].”

Despite some of these reactions, Kidman is excited about the role. “[Lucille Ball]’s an amazing woman,” Kidman told Variety. “I’m very excited for people to see what Aaron found out about her and the way he’s interpreted Desi and Lucy and the way that it’s so rich. I didn’t know any of this.”
