What is Nine Perfect Strangers about?
“The limited series takes place at a boutique health-and-wellness resort that promises healing and transformation in just a span of 10 days,” reads the synopsis. “It will follow the story of nine stressed city dwellers as they try to get on a path that will improve and better their way of living. Watching over them is the resort’s director Masha, a woman on a mission to reinvigorate their tired minds and bodies. However, soon they’ll realize that everything isn’t what it seems to be as these nine strangers have no idea what is about to hit them.”
Nine Perfect Strangers Season 1 was based on author Liane Moriarty’s novel. It also featured an all-star cast that included Melissa McCarthy, Luke Evans, Michael Shannon, Regina Hall, and Samara Weaving.
Nine Perfect Strangers was created by David E. Kelley (Big Littles Lies) and John-Henry Butterworth.
