A-list Australian actress attempts to go incognito in Italy – so do you know who it is?

She may be attending one of the biggest film festivals in the world but Nicole Kidman ensured she was blending in with the locals this week.

The Australian actress made a glamorous appearance at the Venice Film Festival earlier this week but in between press duties for her new film Babygirl, Nicole ensured she was hard to spot.

The 57-year-old coveted up in a hoodie and cap, hiding her famous face in photos posted to Instagram on Sunday.

Other images showed Nicole glammed up in an evening gown but turning her back to the camera, and riding on a canal boat, again hiding her face. 

She also gave her fans a candid glimpse of her lifestyle behind the scenes, dressed to the nines and ready for her red carpet appearance. 

Nicole cut a glamorous figure as she arrived at the Hotel Excelsior during the 81st Venice International Film Festival on Friday. 

The film star looked incredible for the day as she slipped into a black midi dress with a plunging neckline that highlighted her lithe figure.

The garment featured short sleeves and ruffled shoulders while Nicole added height to her frame with a pair of white kitten heels.

Styling her blonde locks into a ponytail, the Oscar winner complimented her outfit with a pair of sunglasses. 

Babygirl sees Nicole star as a a high-powered New York business executive who starts a risky affair with her much-younger intern.

The actress recently admitted she’s not sure she has the ‘bravery’ to watch the movie at the Venice Film Festival. 

Speaking to Vanity Fair, she said: ‘There’s something in me going: ‘Okay, this was made for the big screen and to be seen with people. I’m not sure I have that much bravery.”

‘I’ve made some films that are pretty exposing, but not like this.’ 

Nicole added that Babygirl is the most ‘exposing’ film of her career to date.

 The Big Little Lies star told how she feels particularly anxious about people seeing the film’s racy sex scenes.

She said: ‘It’s like, golly, I’m doing this, and it’s actually now going to be seen by the world. That’s a very weird feeling.’ 

Nicole shared her apprehension over audiences seeing the sex scenes, admitting that the ‘vulnerable’ filming process left her feeling ‘ragged’.

Babygirl sees Nicole take on the role of Romy, a business executive who is balancing her career with trying to find fulfillment in her marriage to a theatre director (Antonio).

Cracks in their marriage appear when new intern Samuel (Harris) makes his attraction to Romy clear and they begin to explore a ‘forbidden sexual dynamic’.
