Hulu is rounding out the cast of “Nine Perfect Strangers” Season 2.
PvNew has learned that Henry Golding, Mark Strong, and Lena Olin have all signed on to the second season of the series. The show was officially renewed back in June 2023, with Nicole Kidman set to return as resort director Masha as well as in her capacity as executive producer.
Additional Season 2 cast members include Murray Bartlett, Annie Murphy, Christine Baranski, Maisie Richardson-Sellers, Dolly De Leon, King Princess, Aras Aydin and Lucas Englander.
Season 1 was based on the book of the same name by Liane Moriarty. Exact plot details for Season 2 are being kept under wraps, but the first season saw the titular nine strangers meet at a health and wellness resort run by Kidman’s Masha.
Golding will play the character Peter. Golding broke out with his starring role in the blockbuster film “Crazy Rich Asians.” He has since starred in projects like “Last Christmas,” “The Gentlemen,” and “Snake Eyes.” He is also set to appear in Guy Ritchie’s “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.”
