Ishaan Khatter says Nicole Kidman is one of the most iconic film stars as he forays into Hollywood with The Perfect Couple: “It’s been a great experience”

Back in March 2023, it was reported that Ishaan Khatter will make his Hollywood debut in an upcoming Netflix limited series The Perfect Couple. Starring Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber, the series also stars Eve Hewson, Billy Howle, Dakota Fanning, Meghann Fahy, Jack Reynor, Sam Nivola, Mia Isac, Donna Lynne Champlin, and Isabelle Adjani. Marking his Hollywood debut, the actor is excited about this project.

During an interview with PTI, Ishaan Khatter said, “I’ve shot a large part of it and it’s my foray into Hollywood. It’s been a great experience. Of course, Nicole is one of the most iconic film stars that we all know and we love in India as well. So, I understand that there’s a lot of curiosity about her. And there are many more awesome cast members, wonderful actors. And that will also be out for the people to see on Netflix next year.”

He added, “Working there is not very different from what it’s like to make movies and tell stories in India. It’s just a great opportunity. I taped my audition and they liked it which is why they called me I guess.”

Ishaan Khatter will essay the role of Shooter Dival, the best man of the groom played by Benji Winbury. It will be a six-episode limited series which was greenlit in August 2022.

As per Variety, the official logline reads, “Amelia Sacks (Hewson) is about to marry into one of the wealthiest families on Nantucket. Her disapproving future mother-in-law, famous novelist Greer Garrison Winbury (Kidman), has spared no expense in planning what promises to be the premiere wedding of the season — until a body turns up on the beach. As secrets come to light, the stage is set for a real-life investigation that feels plucked from the pages of one of Greer’s novels. Suddenly, everyone is a suspect.”

The Perfect Couple began the shoot on the series in April 2023. Shawn Levy and Josh Barry of 21 Laps Entertainment will executive produce along with Sussanne Bier who is directing as well. Jenna Lamia will serve as showrunner and executive producer.

Meanwhile, Ishaan Khatter is set to star in Pippa. Based on ‘The Burning Chaffees’ written by Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta and scored by Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman, Pippa is a tank battle film that underscores the bravery of Brigadier Mehta, a veteran of the 45th Cavalry tank squadron, who, along with his siblings, fought on the eastern front during the Indo-Pakistan War of 1971, which led to the liberation of India’s neighbour Bangladesh. Produced by RSVP and Roy Kapur Films, Pippa stars Ishaan Khatter, Mrunal Thakur, Priyanshu Painyuli and Soni Razdan.
