Nicole Kidman and her “Being the Ricardos” co-star Javier Bardem opened up about what it was like to get to know the real-life characters they embody, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz.
"I mean, all of it. All of it," Kidman said when asked by CBS Sunday Morning what surprised her about Lucille Ball. "The way [she and Desi] built a production company, how they were such a team. I didn't know how clever she was, how she'd always say she wasn't funny. So, I mean, you name it, I didn't know it!"
Bardem, meanwhile, noted that he was struck by the "powerful love story" at the heart of one of America’s most beloved sitcoms.
