WITH just over a month until the Emmy Awards, serious buzz is building that Nicole Kidman could come home with the best actress gong.

The Aussie is nominated for her role in the confronting Foxtel drama Big Little Lies.

Kidman said it was an honour to just be nominated and, win or lose, she will be having a fun night.

“It’s amazing. I was so excited that we all got nominated. It will be a big night for us no matter what happens,” Kidman said in an interview with Foxtel Magazine.

Kidman is also receiving critical acclaim for her latest production, Top of the Lake: China Girl, which broke Australian pay TV records with its first episode on Sunday night.

The first episode was the highest-rating show ever for the BBC First station and was the second most-watched drama on Foxtel this year after Game of Thrones.

It has been a huge year for Kidman with both TV shows received extremely well.

Fans are begging for a second season of Big ­Little Lies.

“We’re looking at a season two for Big Little Lies,” she said.

“We don't know if that’s going to come to fruition, but we are working hard on it and Liane (Moriaty, who wrote the novel) has been so helpful in saying that she’s willing to try to come up with some storylines for us.”

The Emmy Awards will air live on Foxtel on September 18.
