Premise

Nine strangers from the city gather for a 10-day retreat at Tranquillum House, a health and wellness resort in the fictional town of Cabrillo, California, [7] which promises to transform and heal the guests who stay there. The resort is not what it seems to be, and the guests are about to discover many secrets about each other and the resort's host. One of the controversies arising between the guests and resort director Masha starts when she tells them during a meal conducted at a large table that they are all given a psychoactive drug, namely Psilocybin, in very small but relevant doses in their food without their consent or even knowledge, about which the guests are upset and assume it to be a crime.

Development

On May 1, 2019, it was reported that Hulu had given the production a straight-to-series order. The series was created by David E. Kelley, who developed the series with John-Henry Butterworth, both of whom also served as executive producers along with Nicole Kidman, Per Saari, Bruna Papandrea, Steve Hutensky, and Casey Haver. Kelley and Butterworth also served as co-showrunners. Production companies involved with the series are Made Up Stories, Blossom Films, and Endeavor Content. [3] On January 7, 2020, Melissa McCarthy joined the series as an executive producer. [11] On July 29, 2020, it was announced Jonathan Levine was set to direct all eight episodes of the series as well as serve as an executive producer, while Gillian Bohrer joined the series as producer. [12] Yves Bélanger served as cinematographer. [13]

Despite being conceived as a limited series, it was announced in June 2023 that the series was renewed for a second season. [6]

The second season received €10m from the German Motion Picture Fund (GMPF), which accounted for almost 25% of the €44.8m distributed by the Berlin-based fund in 2023. Furthermore, the production obtained the maximum allocation of €7.5m from Austria's FISA+ program, designed to attract international productions to the country. The second season is being developed as a collaborative effort between the USA, Germany, and Austria, with production led by the USA's Fifth Season alongside Germany's Supernix and Austria's Supernix Austria. [14] In the second season, Masha will lead a fresh ensemble of nine strangers, who seek sanctuary from their hectic lives with a 10-day stay at a resort nestled in the Swiss Alps. [15] [16]

Casting

The initial series announcement reported that Nicole Kidman was cast in a lead role.

Filming

On July 8, 2020, Evans revealed that filming would take place in Australia. All actors were required to quarantine for fourteen days in the city of arrival in Australia, due to regulations imposed by the Australian government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, all actors were required to be tested during the quarantine before filming could begin. [29] Principal photography began on August 10, 2020, in Byron Bay, New South Wales. [30] On December 21, 2020, Kidman announced that filming had wrapped. [31]

Kidman met most of the other nine actors right when filming their first scene together, and stayed in character as Masha during production. [32]

Production on the second season took place over six months, from January to June 2024, following the conclusion of the 2023 WGA strike and 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. [33] Kidman's availability was delayed until after January, as she was committed to a different work during that time. [34] The second season was filmed in various locations, including the Swiss Alps and Munich. [35] [36] On July 20, 2024, Golding confirmed that the second season filming had wrapped. He also said that Kidman occasionally kept the accent even when she wasn't filming. [36]

Reception

Critical response

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports a 59% approval rating with an average rating of 6.1/10, based on 111 critic reviews. The critics consensus reads, "A meandering mystery may muddle its impact, but strong performances across the board from its eclectic ensemble mean Nine Perfect Strangers is never less than watchable." [43] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 54 out of 100 based on 35 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". [44]

Ben Travers of IndieWire called out the series was a "disappointing limited series. There's nothing special here, and whatever juice was stirred into Liane Moriarty's bestselling novel of the same name, that's been squeezed out of this languid, lost eight-episode drama". [45] Alison Herman of Theringer pointed out one of the biggest mistakes of the show was that it followed the HBO's big hit The White Lotus "too soon" and was "overstuffed and undercooked". [46]

Alexis Nedd of Mashable compared the show to "smoothies" and commented that "the individually good pieces are some wonderful performances, an interesting premise, and a visually stunning location. Someone just forgot to hit blend." [47] Make a comparison to the previous hit show Big Little Lies, which combined the same elements as Nicole Kidman starred based on a best-selling novel from Liane Moriarty and adapted by David E. Kelley, Rachel Cooke of New Statesman called out "this time around, however, the glossy algorithm has failed to work. [48]

Kevin E G Perry of The Independent called out "the stellar cast's obvious chemistry helps elevate a script that grows increasingly melodramatic as each of their character's secrets are brought to light." [49] David Bianculli of NPR praised the performance of leading lady Nicole Kidman as "it's yet another deep and challenging role she's inhabited since opting to focus on TV miniseries as well as movies" even though it "is more of an ensemble than a solo turn." [50]

Audience viewership

On August 24, 2021, it was reported that the premiere was the most-watched Hulu original at the time. [51]
