The first two episodes of Expats have landed, but when can we expect more?
Nicole Kidman leads the cast of new drama, Expats, which has now landed on Prime Video with quite the bang.
Directed by Lulu Wang and based on the internationally bestselling novel The Expatriates by Janice YK Lee, the new six-part series centres on a group of three American women – Kidman as Margaret, Ji-young Yoo as Mercy and Sarayu Blue as Hilary Starr – whose lives intersect after a family tragedy.
According to the synopsis: “The series interrogates privilege and explores what happens when the line between victimhood and culpability becomes blurred.”
Like many other original Prime Video series, the new drama is unfolding over the course of the next weeks, with its eerie darkness sure to keep viewers gripped to find out what becomes of the women.
But the show is also one that can be viewed in a random order, according to director Wang who told The Guardian: “I’m sort of curious to talk to people who start with different ones. It’s my little experiment, I guess, to see if they bring different things.”
With two episodes of the series already released, when can we expect more? Read on to find out more about the release schedule for Expats.
