‘Expats’: Nicole Kidman Faces the Unimaginable in Official Trailer (VIDEO)

Expats may not premiere until early next year, but Prime Video has finally released the official trailer after previously releasing photos from the series based on the internationally best-selling novel The Expatriates by Janice Y. K. Lee.

Expats, starring Nicole Kidman, Sarayu Blue, Ji-young Yoo, Brian Tee, and Jack Huston, is a six-part limited series created, written, and directed by Lulu Wang. The show had its world premiere screening of the feature-length penultimate episode at the Toronto International Film Festival in September, and will officially debut for Prime Video subscribers on Friday, January 26, 2024.

“Set against the vibrant and tumultuous tapestry of 2014 Hong Kong, Expats centers on three American women — Margaret (Kidman), Hilary (Blue), and Mercy (Yoo) — whose lives intersect after a sudden family tragedy,” according to Prime Video. “The series interrogates privilege and explores what happens when the line between victimhood and culpability becomes blurred.” Tee plays Margaret’s husband Clarke, and Huston plays Hilary’s husband David.

“There are certain projects that feed the soul, fill the heart, and connect with you in ways you never thought possible. I believe for me, this is one of them,” Tee told TV Insider of this series in January 2022.
