Is Nine Perfect Strangers based on a true story?
Nine Perfect Strangers isn’t based on a true story but on Liane Moriarty’s 2018 book of the same title. Still, there are still true parts to the show. In an interview with Good Housekeeping, director Jonathan Levine explained that the show is based on a lot of real research on wellness retreats and that Kidman’s performance could be based on Gwyneth Paltrow, the founder of Goop.
“We definitely researched wellness retreats, and we had consultants from many of them,” Levine said.“We certainly talked to people who can help us with the authenticity of the show.” He added, “I’ve read that Nicole is doing a Gwyneth Paltrow impression or something like that. I was surprised to hear it, it was never our intention.”
He also confirmed that the show was filmed at a real wellness retreat in Australia, which added to the authenticity on set. “We shot in a real wellness center, so we were essentially living the show,” he said. “Everyone was drinking their juices every day, everyone was eating that food that was presented to them; you can’t overstate how much realer it feels when you’re in an actual space.”
He continued, “There was a point when we were going to shoot in Los Angeles, and it was going to be done in three separate residences and eight rooms built on a soundstage, but that wouldn’t have had the same feel as all of us showing up at the same wellness retreat every day, eating in the same room, doing all these things that were consistent with the reality of the show.”
While the show, for the most part, was inspired by Moriarty’s book, Levine did hint that were some creative differences made. “The only time we would think beyond our story was when it came to the relatability of the struggles of these characters,” he said. “There wasn’t any sort of winking in what we were doing, beyond that notion that we were going to have fun with the material. We were going to try to be entertaining, we were going to take big swings, and we were going to be totally ambitious. But I can’t think of a time when we were trying to subvert that or make fun.”
How many episodes is Nine Perfect Strangers?
Nine Perfect Strangers has eight episodes. The first three episodes were premiered on August 18. One new episode is released each week on Thursdays until the finale on September 22.
