The toxicity of wellness is on full display when you watch Nine Perfect Strangers online. The new limited series comes from some of the team behind Big Little Lies, including star Nicole Kidman, creator David E. Kelley and author Liane Moriarty. Guess Reese Witherspoon was busy!
The first three episodes of Nine Perfect Strangers are streaming now on Hulu.
In Nine Perfect Strangers, the titular group embarks on a 10-day retreat at the health and wellness resort Tranquillum House. However, the resort is the sunny, healing place it purports to be; there's darkness lurking under the surface. And the guests begin to discover disturbing secrets about each other and the resort's host, Masha (Kidman).
If that sounds similar to HBO's recently-concluded White Lotus, well, you're not wrong.
This is Kidman and Kelley's third project together, following Big Little Lies and The Undoing. Their BLL collaboration was an acclaimed sensation, earning the Emmy and Golden Globe for miniseries as well as lead actress for Kidman. Could the combination of Kidman, Kelley and Moriarty strike gold again?
