FILE - Honoree Nicole Kidman speaks during the 49th AFI Life Achievement Award tribute to her, Saturday, April 27, 2024, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The tribute will air on TNT on Monday.
“She was this, like, mystic creature. And I was just so taken by her grace and her beauty and her talent," Teller said. “After the first day of filming, Nicole comes up to me and she gives me a hug, and she says, ‘Oh, Miles, that was such a great first day.’ I can still remember that moment. I was on top of the world.”“The next time I show up on set, I see Nicole and she’s kind of across the room, and I wave to her and I say, ‘Hi, Nicole.
Two years later, Teller auditioned to appear with Kidman again, in “The Paperboy.” But he didn’t get it.. He's about the same age as Teller, but already had dozens of credits. The role opposite Kidman would push him past the pigeonholing from appearing in three “High School Musical” films and “Hairspray.”
“It was terrifying and it was thrilling," Efron said."And as my character and I were looking for guidance, there she was.”
