The town of Chatham in Massachusetts is set to double for the miniature island of Nantucket in Netflix's new limited series The Perfect Couple.
The show stars Nicole Kidman, Liev Schreiber and Dakota Fanning in the six-part murder mystery drama based on Elin Hilderbrand's 2018 novel.
It also stars Eve Hewson, Billy Howle, Meghann Fahy, Ishaan Khattar, Jack Reynor, Sam Nivola, Mia Isac, Donna Lynne Champlin, and Isabelle Adjani.
The official logline reads: “Amelia Sacks (Hewson) is about to marry into one of the wealthiest families on Nantucket. Her disapproving future mother-in-law, famous novelist Greer Garrison Winbury (Kidman), has spared no expense in planning what promises to be the premiere wedding of the season — until a body turns up on the beach. As secrets come to light, the stage is set for a real-life investigation that feels plucked from the pages of one of Greer’s novels. Suddenly, everyone is a suspect.”
A character description states that Schreiber will play Tag Winbury, the Groom’s Father; Howle will play Benji Winbury, the Groom; Fanning will play Abby Winbury, the Sister-in-Law; Fahy will play Merritt Monaco, the Bride’s Best Friend; Khattar will play Shooter Dival, the Groom’s Best Friend; Reynor will play Thomas Winbury, the Groom’s Brother; Nivola will play Will Winbury, the Groom’s Brother; Isaac will play Chloe Carter; the Chief of Police’s Daughter; Champlin will play Nikki Henry, the Detective; Adjani will recur as Isabel Nallet, the Family Friend.
Production will commence this week in the US town of Chatham, which is doubling for Nantucket, a small island 30 miles south from Cape Cod.
Jenna Lamia serves as showrunner and executive producer, with Susanne Bier directing and executive producing. Kidman and Per Saari will executive produce for Blossom Films. 21 Laps Entertainment's Shawn Levy and Josh Barry also executive produce alongside Gail Berman and Hend Baghdady for The Jackal Group. Hilderbrand is also an executive producer.
