Nicole Kidman and her Big Little Lies co-star Reese Witherspoon reunited for a recent Vanity Fair video interview and briefly touched upon a potential third season of their Emmy-winning HBO series. Nicole has spoken publicly on numerous occasions about Big Little Lies Season 3 moving forward, to which Reese now said: This one has already said too much.
I got excited,
Nicole admitted about letting some Big Little Lies Season 3 news slip out prematurely. We need to shut up. There’s a whole thing about how you should never talk about something until you’ve done it because if you talk about doing it then it’s the dopamine hit of doing it and you feel like you’ve done it. It’s a scientific study.
Moving Forward with the New Book
But that didn’t stop Nicole from talking about Big Little Lies Season 3 once again, as she provided this update to fans: We’re moving fast and furious. Liane [Moriarty] is delivering the book. We’re in good shape.
Nicole told Variety in January that she and Reese were texting every day
about a third season, and she then said in an interview with Elle magazine in March that her daughter, Sunday Rose, was partly responsible for getting Big Little Lies Season 3 off the ground. Sunday demanded another season after finishing Season 2 and even had some criticisms to share about her mother’s character arc.
A Push from Family
My daughter is the one who watched both of the series and went, ‘Okay, there’s just no question, there has to be a third,’
Kidman said, adding that Sunday gave her notes on character development. She’s like, ‘Celeste, she’s not coping in the second one, what is she doing? I could kind of see the point of view of Mary Louise.’
Celeste is played by Nicole. In the show’s second season, Celeste and her friends have to keep the truth about the death of Celeste’s husband (played by Alexander Skarsgard) a secret from his pestering mother, Mary Louise (Meryl Streep).
The Network’s Stand
HBO and Max content chairman/CEO Casey Bloys explained earlier this year that he’s ready for Big Little Lies Season 3.[To proceed with a new season] Where you have all these stars, you’ve got to get their schedules in line, we have to get it written,
Bloys said.So, there’s a lot that needs to be done. It’s very early stages right now. The entire cast is doing shows and movies, and everybody’s very busy. But it’s a very special group. They love working together. And when they land on an idea, I believe they will make it happen. We’re excited when they’re ready, and we will take those steps when they’re ready.
