Written and directed by Reijn, Babygirl will center on a successful CEO who starts an illicit affair with her much younger intern. This film marks the second collaboration between A24 and Reijn, whose horror comedy was met with positive reviews and starred Amandla Stenberg, Maria Bakalova, Rachel Sennott, Lee Pace, and Pete Davidson.

The cast of Reijn’s next film will be even more star-studded, and it includes Nicole Kidman (Big Little Lies), Antonio Banderas (Pain and Glory) and Harris Dickinson (The Iron Claw), Sophie Wilde (Talk To Me), and Jean Reno (Léon: The Professional).

David Hinojosa of 2AM is producing the film alongside Reijn, while Julia Oh, Zach Nutman, and Christine D’Souza Gelb of 2AM are coming on board as executive producers.

Babygirl joins A24’s ever-expending slate of A-list projects, which also includes several more star-studded films announced in recent weeks, starting with Death of a Unicorn, starring Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega and Opus, led by Ayo Edebiri and John Malkovich.

Based on Liane Moriarty’s book of the same name, Nine Perfect Strangers takes place in a lavish health-and-wellness resort that promises healing and transformation, but its guests quickly learn there’s something off about this resort and its mysterious founder Masha.

Nine Perfect Strangers will take The White Lotus-like approach with Season 2, and move the events to a new location—from sunny California to the ice-cold Swiss Alps. The general formula remains the same, and the series will center on a group of stressed city dwellers trying to get a fresh start during a 10-day retreat at Tranquillum House.

The first season featured the likes of Melissa McCarthy, Michael Shannon, Luke Evans, and Samara Weaving, but they won’t be back for another round. Season 2 will feature a brand-new cast of titular strangers, including two-time Oscar nominee Liv Ullmann, the Emmy-winning The White Lotus actor Murray Bartlett, along with Dolly de Leon (Triangles Of Sadness), and Maisie Richardson-Sellers (DC’s Legends of Tomorrow).

The series is based on Elin Hilderbrand’s bestselling novel and it centers on Nantucket native Celeste Otis, who’s getting ready to get married to one of the wealthiest men in the area. The wedding of the year turns into a murder scene when a body is discovered floating in the harbor and everyone at the party is suddenly a suspect.

Kidman plays the lead role, and she’ll be joined by Liev Schreiber (Ray Donovan), Meghann Fahy (The White Lotus), Dakota Fanning (The Alienist), and the Flora and Son duo of Eve Hewson and Jack Reynor.

This will mark the second collaboration between Kidman and Bier, and it looks pretty promising given the success of their previous project together. The Emmy-winning star played the lead role in Bier’s The Undoing on HBO alongside Hugh Grant, for which she earned a Golden Globe nomination. Fanning also previously worked with Bier, playing Susan Ford in her anthology drama series The First Lady last year.

Kay Scarpetta is the protagonist in 26 books written by Cornwell, which sold over 100 million copies over the years, starting with Postmortem in 1990. Scarpetta is a medical examiner, who often relies on forensic science in her investigations.

The Oscar-winner Nicole Kidman will portray the titular character, while Curtis will play the protagonist’s sister Dorothy. Her involvement doesn’t come as a surprise after Curtis’ Comet Pictures and Blumhouse Television secured the right for this book series in 2021.

“Patricia Cornwell is a bonafide literary trailblazer, and collaborating with her to bring her beloved character Kay Scarpetta to life through the power of television and to introduce her to an entirely new audience is exciting,” said Curtis in a statement.

Liz Sarnoff, best known for her work on Barry, will write the series and serve as its showrunner. According to Deadline, Kay Scarpetta is nearing a two-season straight-to-series order at Prime Video, with eight episodes per season, but Amazon is yet to make things official.

The untitled film follows “a surprising romance which kicks off comic consequences for a young woman, her mother, and her movie star boss as they face the complications of love, sex, and identity.” The shooting is expected to start later this year, and Netflix will reveal more details about the project in the meantime.

In addition to directing, LaGravenese (P.S. I Love You, Beautiful Creatures) also co-wrote the script with Carrie Solomon. Joe Roth, Jeff Kirschenbaum, and Alyssa Altman are producing the project for Roth/Kirschenbaum Films.

This film comes a decade after Kidman and Efron’s first collaboration together – the crime drama The Paperboy from 2012. The former Disney star recently collaborated with Netflix on the Ted Bundy biopic Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile. Joey King is also somewhat of a Netflix veteran, having previously starred in The Kissing Booth franchise.

As for Kidman, this romantic comedy will mark her second collaboration with Netflix. She previously appeared in Ryan Murphy’s The Prom from 2020 alongside Meryl Streep and James Corden.

The film follows Lucille Ball (Kidman) and Desi Arnaz (Bardem) during a production week on the set of I Love Lucy from a Monday table read through an audience shot on Friday. Along the way, Ball and Arnaz face challenges that could end both their career and marriage.

The trailer gives a look at the iconic couple’s life with Kidman’s voiceover and the recreation of Ball’s grape storming scene.

The biopic won’t be a remake of I Love Lucy, rather it will tackle series themes including racial barriers that the couple faced with Desi being discriminated against for being Cuban and Lucille fighting to keep him on the show.

“The strange thing about Lucille Ball is that everyone thinks we’re remaking the ‘I Love Lucy’ show, and it’s so not that,” Kidman told Variety. “It’s about Lucy and Desi and their relationship and their marriage. It’s very deep, actually.”

The screenplay was written by Sorkin and Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal, and Steve Tisch are producers. Jenna Block, David Bloomfield, Stuart Besser, Lucie Arnaz, Desi Arnaz Jr., and Lauren Lohman are executive producers.

The movie will be released in theaters on December 10 and on Amazon Prime Video on December 21. Watch the trailer below.

Nine Perfect Strangers is off to a strong rating start, and it set the record on its premiere day and kept the no. 1 spot after five days on the service. As usual, Hulu failed to release any actual viewership numbers, so we’ll have to take their word for it until Nielsen releases their streaming ratings.

Nine Perfect Strangers is based on Liane Moriarty’s novel of the same name, and its star-studded cast is led by Nicole Kidman. This project sees the Oscar-winning actress joining forces with David E. Kelley, who previously developed her shows Big Little Lies and The Undoing.

Nine Perfect Strangers is set in a seemingly perfect wellness resort, where nine strangers gather for a 10-day retreat and quickly come to learn this place is not what it seems.

This series is a brainchild of Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch, who also signed an overall deal with Apple TV+. It’s expected to feature eight half-hour episodes, told from a female point of view.

There’s a potential for more episodes in the future—this series is based on Cecelia Ahern’s book of short stories Roar: Thirty Women, Thirty Stories, originally published in 2018.

This isn’t the first adaptation of Ahern’s work. Her debut novel PS, I Love You was adapted into a hit romantic 2007 drama, starring Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler. Romantic comedy Love, Rosie with Lily Collins and Sam Claflin was also based on one of her novels, and she also served as one of the co-creators of the sitcom Samantha Who? led by Christina Applegate.
