The highly anticipated six-episode series, adapted from Elin Hilderbrand's smash hit, unveils a wedding turned into a nightmarish mystery. As the teaser trailer for Netflix's The Perfect Couple rolls, a picture of paradise is shattered by the grim discovery of a body on the beach, instantly casting suspicion on all the guests.
Nicole Kidman shines as Greer in this thrilling adaptation of Hilderbrand's New York Times bestseller, portraying Amelia Sacks, a bride destined to marry into the prestigious Nantucket dynasty. Amidst the lavish preparations for the so-called "premiere wedding of the season," the idyllic wedding day is abruptly marred by the discovery of a corpse.
Secrets begin to unravel, setting the stage for a real-life thriller that feels like it's sprung from the pages of a Greer novel. Suddenly, every guest is a potential suspect, as the police launch an investigation, questioning Kidman's Greer in particular. "Is there something you want to tell me?" an officer probes, while Liev Schreiber, portraying Tag Winbury, the groom's father, remains nonchalant, suggesting that it's all just an "accidental drowning."
As Dakota Fanning warns Hewson's Amelia, "The key to this family is to just stay on the periphery where it's safe." Amidst the drama, the star-studded cast including Billy Howle, Jack Reynor, Ishaan Khatter, Meghann Fahy, Sam Nivola, Michael Beach, Donna Lynne Champlin, Mia Isaac, and Isabelle Adjani bring this tense limited series to life.
Susanne Bier directs all six episodes and executive produces alongside showrunner Jenna Lamia. The Perfect Couple is executive produced by Hilderbrand alongside Shawn Levy for 21 Laps Entertainment, Gail Berman and Hend Baghdady for The Jackal Group, Kidman and Per Saari for Blossom Films, and Josh Barry. Prepare for an edge-of-your-seat thriller when The Perfect Couple premieres globally on Netflix on September 5.
