Nicole Kidman to Star in TV Series "Girls and Their Horses"

Nicole Kidman is set to star in and executive produce a series adaptation of the Eliza Jane Brazier novel “Girls and Their Horses”.

The project is currently in development and will be co-produced by Legendary Television and Amazon MGM Studios for Prime Video.

Brazier will write the pilot and executive produce. Jenna Lamia will serve as showrunner and executive producer.

Kidman will executive produce along with Per Saari under their Blossom Films banner.

“Girls and Their Horses” marks a reunion for Kidman and Lamia.

Lamia previously developed and showran the hit Netflix series “The Perfect Couple,” based on the novel by Elin Hilderbrand, in which Kidman starred and executive produced.

The official logline for “Girls and Their Horses” reads, “A murder-mystery set in the beachside equestrian community of Rancho Santa Fe, California, ‘Girls and Their Horses’ follows the newly wealthy Parker family as they aim to position their teenage daughters in the rarified, sometimes-deadly world of competitive horse riding.”

Should it move forward, this would mark the latest series role for Kidman, who has quickly become the hardest working actress in television.

In addition to “The Perfect Couple,” she has starred in the shows “Big Little Lies,” “Top of the Lake: China Girl,” “The Undoing,” “Nine Perfect Strangers,” “Lioness,” and “Expats” since 2017.

The second season of “Nine Perfect Strangers” recently debuted, while Kidman is also attached to star in the shows “Scarpetta” at Prime Video and “Margo’s Got Money Troubles” at Apple TV+. 

She also has a stellar film career, for which she has received five Oscar nominations with one win. Her recent film credits include “The Northman,” “Babygirl,” “A Family Affair,” and “Being the Ricardos.”

In addition to “Girls and Their Horses,” Brazier is also the author of the books “If I Disappear” and “Good Rich People,” both of which she is currently adapting for TV.

The former is set up at 20th Television, while the latter is at MRC. She is also working on a feature screenplay based on her novel “It Had to Be You” at Sony.

This is the latest collaboration between Legendary TV and Amazon MGM Studios in recent weeks.

It was reported back in April that Legendary’s “Pacific Rim” TV series is now set up at Amazon, while the two studios, along with Pacesetter Productions, have struck a deal to develop a series based G. T. Karber’s murder mystery puzzles “Murdle.”
