Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman is once again heading to Amazon Prime Video for Things I Know to Be True, a drama series based on Andrew Bovell’s play. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Oscar winner will also executive produce the project under her first-look deal with the streamer. The plot of the story revolves around a married couple, Bob and Fran Price, who watch as their adult children make unexpected decisions that change the course of their lives.

Bovell will adapt his play and will executive produce with Kidman and Per Saari of Blossom Films; Amanda Higgs and Alastair McKinnon of Matchbox Pictures; and Jan Chapman. Kidman told the International media outlet that she had watched the play in Sydney and it was one of those transcendent theatre experiences. She said that Andrew’s play is exquisite and his scripts for the series are just as good. With Amazon’s belief, Jen Salke’s guidance, and an extraordinary producing team, we have big hopes for what this can be.
