I think it's promising. 3 season of this famous 100M sales series are way better than 3 more 9PS or something to fill that Amazon deal.
it's her Wallander (a Kenneth Branagh producing + leading Swedish best seller adapted detective fiction), a bit safe yet not boring and got the big hit potential.
safe is not ideal, but consider Amazon's quality control, I think this is exactly what she needs through the whole contract.

I think the best case scenario would be a moody thriller series like Mare of Easttown or True Detective etc, that meets the expectations of the thousands of readers and fans of the books.
The worst case scenario is a bad, soapy, cheap procedural drama like CSI Cyber etc that everyone will shit on, haha.
Who knows.

I think should be the last or one of the last projects from the contract she made with Amazon, but I'm not sure. Let's see how this goes.

Is your sense that the script is all ready?

I'm trying to remain positive about this, but it's hard. Like most of you here, I'd love for her to take a leading role in a daring and artistic feature that asks a lot of her - in other words, I want Nicole's answer to Tar!
But! Here's what I'm telling myself about this project.
Helen Mirren built up a lot of actorly street-cred on television in the 90s playing a detective in Prime Suspect. That was over many seasons, too.
Carey Mulligan was still in the "hot" phase of her career (age-wise) when she did a well-received detective show on TV a few years back. Collateral. That didn't hurt her trajectory.
These are two actresses that I hold in the very highest esteem. Kidman, Mirren, Blanchett, Mulligan, Streep. All equals.
And while I'm unfamiliar with the source material, we've seen what Nicole can do with a detective role in Destroyer, a film that's in my top three favourite Kidman movies.

Let us all look towards optimism. There was a time where the best roles kidman could get were Trespass and Just go with it and that was all we kidmaniacs had to sustain us for a couple of years!

OK, I did not have any hopes for this project.
I thought Jamie Lee Curtis was an OK actress until I seen her performance in The Bear.
Just phenomenal and think with Nicole's talent, this could be something special.
Though I still want her to do the murderous nanny project first!!

she's killing it! I see The Bear as Shameless' sequel, but JLC in the EP is truly the William Macy of the show. luv it!!
