‘Expats’ Duo Nicole Kidman And Lulu Wang On The Emotional Toll Of Bringing Novel To Life


Nicole Kidman and the stars and writer-director of the Prime Video series Expats sat down April 28 at the Deadline Studio at Prime Experience.

Lee’s bestselling novel of the same name, Expats revolves around the lives of a group of expatriates in Hong Kong — more specifically, it’s story of three women from different backgrounds linked by a tragic event, grief, loss and complicated family issues. Kidman, who has become as prolific a producer through her Blossom Films as she is an actor, also just received the prestigious AFI Lifetime Achievement Award over the weekend, something celebrated by all her Expats colleagues as we began our studio session with them on the sidelines of Amazon’s FYC event. Wang, director of acclaimed feature films like The Farewell, shared just why she wanted to make this property her television debut, and especially getting to collaborate with Kidman.
