Nicole Kidman Faces A Lux Wedding And A Dead Body In "The Perfect Couple" Trailer

2 months ago 6

If there is one type of character Nicole Kidman is going to excel at playing, it's a rich woman with an enviable wardrobe who is at the center of a scandal. (To be clear, she's brilliant at playing all sorts of characters. That's why she's an Oscar winner and five-time nominee.)

As you'll recall, she won an Emmy for portraying a California woman battling abuse and grief in HBO's whodunnit Big Little Lies.

She also played an Upper East Side therapist whose husband is accused of murder in HBO's (other) whodunnit The Undoing.

Nicole is (thankfully) at it again as another stylish and affluent woman surrounded by controversy in the new Netflix series, The Perfect Couple, which is based on author Elin Hilderbrand's novel of the same name.

Even better, the trailer dropped on July 11, and the series looks so promising.

Bad Sisters' Eve Hewson stars as Amelia, a woman marrying into a wealthy Nantucket family.

Under the Banner of Heaven's Billy Howle plays her fiancé Benji.

Nicole and Liev Schreiber play the groom's high society parents, Greer and Tag Winbury.

With The White Lotus's Meghann Fahy as Amelia's best friend Merritt.

And Beyond the Clouds' Ishaan Khatter is Benji's best friend Shooter.

There's also Midsommar's Jack Reynor as Benji's brother Thomas, and Dakota Fanning as Thomas's wife, Abby.

As the trailer makes clear, the show follows the Winbury family in wedding fervor when a dead body is found on the beach near their home.

There's police questioning...

...and Liev making this face.

This image alone, of Nicole pensively removing her expensive-looking sunglasses, indicates that the series will likely be a must-watch.
