Nicole Kidman is reuniting with the ‘Big Little Lies’ author for a new series

It's not clear yet whether Kidman will star in the show or just produce it.

Few actresses have taken the transition to television more in stride than Nicole Kidman. Although she was a movie star for decades, Nicole is now all over the small screen after first jumping over with Big Little Lies. Now, the actress has announced her latest small screen project, an adaptation of Liane Moriarty’s Here One Moment.

Moriarty’s adaptations have been all over Netflix in recent years, including Big Little Lies, Apples Never Fall, and Nine Perfect Strangers, among others. Kidman has worked on two other Moriarty adaptations, but on this one, it isn’t yet clear whether she will also have a role on camera or not. For now, she is just producing the adaptation along with Per Saari, as well as Made Up Stories’ Bruna Papandrea and Steve Hutensky, according to Deadline. It’s worth noting, though, that Kidman has ended up starring in the past two Moriarty adaptations that she was a part of.

The novel tells the story of a flight in which one women predicts how much time various passengers have before they die. Her predictions turn out to be eerily accurate.

Regardless of whether she joins this adaptation, though, it’s clear that Kidman is still enjoying her job. In 2024 alone she has starred in Expats and The Perfect Couple on the small screen, and also had roles in movies A Family Affair, Babygirl and Spellbound. 

Here One Moment is also far from the only project the actress has on the horizon. She’s also set to star in a sequel to Practical Magic, another movie called Holland, Michigan, and a number of other projects. In the end, the question of whether she appears on screen in Here One Moment may have more to do with her schedule than anything else.

January’s top picks: What to stream on Apple TV+
Apple TV+ has an impressive library that includes great movies and shows

When computer company Apple announced that it was getting into the streaming TV game, there were plenty of people who were skeptical about the company's ability to pull it off. Why would the tech giant, which is most known for the Macintosh and the iPhone, have any credibility in making television shows? It doesn't seem the two ideas would mesh in any meaningful way, but in the years since Apple TV Plus launched, the company has come up with some pretty impressive original shows, and it picked up a Best Picture Oscar on top of that.
What's even more impressive is that these Apple TV+ shows and movies run the gamut from comedy to drama, and they are all set in wildly different and imaginative places. Any loyal Apple customer, and I am definitely one, will tell you that they buy their stuff because it's simply better than the alternative. As it turns out, the same thing is true for the streaming service.
If you're looking for more great stuff to stream, you should also check out our lists of the best shows on Netflix, the best shows on Hulu, and the best shows on Disney+.

Your guide to the best movies on Max this January
New to Max? Here are the top movies to start with

Now that HBO Max has rebranded as Max, it's the right time to get acquainted with all of the great movies to watch on the streaming service. In addition to large portions of the Warner Bros. catalog, it also has tons of seminal, classic films, as well as plenty of foreign releases. Because the catalog is so big and rich, there are about 250 titles that could go on this list. There's a wealth of options to choose from whether you're into action movies or comedies, and you shouldn't feel limited by the selection below.
Max is, in my estimation, the best service to turn to for a complete history of cinema. The streamer doesn't have every great movie, but it has more than any other streaming service, and it's been crucial in filling in some blindspots for me.
Instead, you should treat it as a jumping-off point of HBO Max movies, which will hopefully allow you to explore many of the titles that didn't quite make the cut. Max has great movies in every genre and from every period of film history. This is just a sampling of the best movies on Max. And if you're looking for more Max content, we've rounded up the best shows on Max to watch right now.

Top picks for January: The best movies on Hulu
Hulu is the place to watch movies across a wide array of genres

There's a lot of competition out there in the streaming world, and it can be hard to shuffle through the services to find the best movies to stream right now. Though there are plenty of great movies on Netflix and Amazon still has the platform beat in terms of overall quality, many of the movies on Hulu can't be streamed anywhere else.
Hulu may, especially from today's vantage point, seem like a vestigial arm of Disney that doesn't have its own identity anymore. That's why I was surprised to discover just how many great movies the service has, including the kind of adult fare that Disney doesn't allow anywhere else. If you want something grisly or scary, like I often do, then Hulu is a great place to find it.
The best movies on Hulu can be gritty, family-friendly, and even sci-fi-oriented films. So, if you're looking to expand your binge-watching horizons, we've found the best movies to watch on Hulu right now.
