The Perfect Couple Creator & Netflix Reveal Plans for More Nantucket Adaptations

As a devoted fan of Elin Hildebrand’s enchanting narratives, I am absolutely thrilled to witness the remarkable journey her stories are taking on Netflix. The captivating mystery of “The Perfect Couple” has undeniably left its mark, and I can hardly wait to see how they adapt another masterpiece from this exceptional series.


They are fully committing to their adaptations of Elin Hildebrand’s novels, spurred by the extraordinary success of “The Perfect Couple.” Starring the likes of Nicole Kidman, Liev Schreiber, Eve Hewson, Dakota Fanning, Meghann Fahy, Billy Howle, and Jack Reynor, this six-episode Limited series is an adaptation from Hildebrand’s book with the same title. It delves into a baffling murder at a luxurious estate in Nantucket. “The Perfect Couple” is one of the installments in Hildebrand’s extensive Nantucket series, which consists of stories subtly connected, all set on the island.

According to Deadline, Elin Hildebrand and showrunner Jenna Lamia have already begun adapting another novel from the author’s series. They haven’t disclosed which of the remaining three books this new project will focus on or if it will continue in the same limited series format as “The Perfect Couple.” It’s interesting to note that “The Perfect Couple” is actually the third book in the Nantucket series, released in 2018. The first book, “A Summer Affair,” was published in 2008, and the last novel, “Swan Song,” came out this year. Lamia has confirmed that this new project will adapt another of Hildebrand’s books but will not be a direct sequel to “The Perfect Couple,” as it was intended to be a standalone limited series.

Jenna Lamia also confirmed she’s collaborating again with the star of The Perfect Couple, but she hasn’t disclosed any specifics about this new venture. However, she did mention that this project is distinct from her ongoing work on the Nantucket series.

The popular show titled “The Perfect Couple” has been a massive success on Netflix. Upon its premiere, it swiftly climbed to the number one spot on Netflix’s weekly viewership chart and has continued to stay in the Top 10. In its inaugural week alone, the series attracted an astounding 3.4 billion minutes of viewing time. In contrast, Amazon Prime Video’s series “The Rings of Power” managed just 372.2 million minutes watched during the same period (as reported by Variety). After a week, “The Perfect Couple” was bumped from its top position by Ryan Murphy’s contentious series, “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story“. Remarkably, even when Netflix’s teen sensation “Emily in Paris” debuted the second half of its fourth season, “The Perfect Couple” managed to hold onto its number two position on Netflix.

To date, “The Perfect Couple” has amassed over 52 million views. To crack Netflix’s Top 10 most-watched shows list, “The Perfect Couple” will need to aim for doubling its viewership. Meanwhile, season 2 of “Bridgerton” is holding down the 10th spot with approximately 93 million views. However, these views were accumulated during a 91-day span post-release. Consequently, the challenge facing “The Perfect Couple” may not be as insurmountable as it appears, given that it’s still in its third week on Netflix and audience engagement statistics indicate continued interest in the series.
