Tired of Hollywood hassle, Kidman craves farm life
13/12/2007 10:45

After she finishes filming "Australia" and performing in "Need" with Naomi Watts, Nicole Kidman says she's going to "disappear" from the Hollywood scene and "hang out" on a farm in Tennessee.

"Actually, I'm not that interested in working right now," Kidman told The Times UK. "I think that a lot of my wish to work was about wanting to get lost, not wanting to be in the world."

During the last year the actress spoke openly about her plight with depression, but following the rocky start of her marriage to Keith Urban, she's left her dark days behind.

"I have a reason to be in the world now and that reason is Keith," she explained.

The part of the world Kidman wants to be in is the "spiritually satisfying" farm she and Urban purchased in Tennessee.

"We just have our own little bubble that we exist in. And I can completely disappear. I'm really good at it and I don't need much."

Wanting to get away from it all isn't new for Kidman. People magazine reported it took two persuasive letters, one from "The Golden Compass" director Chris Weitz and one from the book's author Philip Pullman, to convince Nicole to appear in her latest film.

"I actually just didn't want to work," the actress said in a press conference. "I was just in a place in my life where I was in Tennessee and I was just feeling a little lazy and wanting to hang out."
