And whilst there are no hard feelings, Kravitz admitted to finding the Aussie actress quite intimidating.

"(Nicole) can be quiet and shy, which is interesting because the best of an actress that she is is so loud and clear. She's so good that sometimes it was distracting. After every take, I wanted to just stop and say, Wow," Kravitz said.

Kidman and Kravitz reportedly began dating between 2003 and 2004. The actress told Vanity Fair in 2007 that she was once engaged in the time before she met her now husband, Keith Urban, and following her divorce from Tom Cruise.
