Meet The Cast Of 'Nine Perfect Strangers' Series 2: Nicole Kidman, And A 'White Lotus' Star

You'll recognise all of these faces.

By Rhiannon Evans

We feel like we've just recovered from the mind-bending ending of series one of Nine Perfect Strangers, but the series is already back again for another outing. Yes, unbelievably Masha - played by Nicole Kidman - is still working as an experimental, retreat-running therapist and has persuaded nine more 'perfect' strangers to come to Austria with her.

All eight episodes of the show will be available to watch on Prime Video in the UK, and the streamer describes the plot of the show, as: 'Nine new strangers connected in ways they could never imagine are invited by mysterious guru Masha Dmitrichenko (Nicole Kidman) to join a transformational wellness retreat in the Austrian Alps. Over the course of a week, she takes them to the brink. Will they make it? Will she? Masha is willing to try anything in the interest of healing everyone involved, including herself.'

The first two episodes of the show will land on May 22, with new episodes airing weekly after that - and we guarantee that we'll each be left wondering what on earth is going on, and eager for more.

As with the first series, the show has attracted a stellar A-list cast.

  • Nicole Kidman as Masha
  • Henry Golding as Peter
  • Mark Strong as David
  • Lena Olin as Helena
  • Annie Murphy as Imogen
  • Christine Baranski as Victoria
  • King Princess as Tina

Masha returns for a second series as 'a woman on a mission to reinvigorate their tired minds and bodies' - but as viewers of series one will know, her methods can be somewhat questionable.

Nicole Kidman is the A-list star of everything from The Perfect Couple to Big Little Lies.
