Nicole Kidman brings murder mystery "The Perfect Couple" to the small screen in a new Netflix mini-series in which she plays a matriarch of a wealthy American family with plenty of secrets.
The six-part show, adapted from the 2018 novel by Elin Hilderbrand, stars Eve Hewson as zookeeper Amelia Sacks who is marrying into one of the richest families on Nantucket.
Kidman plays her disapproving future mother-in-law, murder mystery novelist Greer Garrison Winbury, who has organized a lavish wedding at the family home over the Fourth of July holiday weekend.
When a body washes up ashore on the day of the nuptials, however, secrets unravel and an investigation begins.
"I grew up on (murder mysteries) and... I haven't seen one like this for a while, so it was really exciting to be a part of it and to be able to produce it as well," Kidman told Reuters at the series' UK premiere in London on Monday.
The Oscar winner said the role was "so different" to the one she plays in "Babygirl," an erotic drama she premiered at the Venice Film Festival last week.
"(Greer is) strong and, and powerful and that was exciting to play... I'm always on this quest to find things that I haven't done or have different experiences," she said.
