Nicole Kidman as Masha smiling in Nine Perfect Strangers Nicole Kidman has reunited with Big Little Lies author Liane Moriarty for a television series adaptation of Here One Moment. In addition to Big Little Lies, Kidman starred in and served as an executive producer for Hulu’s adaptation of Moriarty’s novel Nine Perfect Strangers and in the upcoming Australian series adaptation of Moriarty’s The Last Anniversary. Kidman has also been involved in the early development of Big Little Lies season 3, while Moriarty is writing her own Big Little Lies sequel book.

Per Deadline, Kidman and her production company, Blossom Films, have now teamed up with Moriarty to adapt Here One Moment, which was published in September 2024. Bruna Papandrea and her production company, Made Up Stories, who were also involved in Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers, and The Last Anniversary, have joined the project as well. No casting details have been confirmed, although Kidman is likely to star in Here One Moment as she has in her previous collaborations with Moriarty. Check out Kidman’s comments below:

I’m so happy for the ongoing partnership with Liane and so grateful to count her amongst my closest friends and collaborators.

Less than a month after Here One Moment was published, development is already moving swiftly forward on the mystery thriller. Given the quality of the source material and the success of past Moriarty adaptations, especially with Kidman’s involvement in Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers, there is already tremendous confidence in Here One Moment. Having Kidman at the forefront of their latest collaboration is a natural choice given her distinct and powerful leading performances in Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers.

Here One Moment‘s story revolves around a flight where one of the passengers tells each of their fellow travelers how they are going to die in the future. Much like Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers, and the Moriarty adaptation Kidman was not involved in, Apples Never Fall, all have intriguing premises, and Here One Moment‘s premise makes it a worthy follow-up series. It is promising that Papandrea has reunited with Kidman and Moriarty as well, to ensure that Here One Moment will be another successful adaptation.

Our Take On The Here One Moment Adaptation

It Should Be Another Great Moriarty Adaptation

With many of the key individuals and production companies from Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers joining forces again, Here One Moment is poised to be another stellar Moriarty adaptation. Between Big Little Lies season 3, Nine Perfect Strangers season 2, and Practical Magic 2, Kidman has many upcoming projects in the works, but there should still be enough room for Here One Moment as well. There is no reason for it to not be another hit series for Moriarty and Kidman.
