\n\tNicole Kidman<\/a>, Elle Fanning<\/a> and A24<\/a> are teaming up for a legal thriller series. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe indie studio outbid several others for Discretion, based on a short story by best-selling author Chandler Baker. Kidman and Fanning are set to star in the project and will also serve as executive producers. The project is a reunion for Kidman, Fanning and A24, who are also behind Apple TV+\u2019s Margo\u2019s Got Money Troubles<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\n\tPlot details are being kept quiet, but the Dallas-set story is based in part on Baker\u2019s experiences as a corporate attorney. Baker will adapt her story with the intent for Discretion to become an ongoing series. A24 will shop the project to potential buyers soon. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe executive producers are Elle Fanning, Dakota Fanning and Brittany Kahan Ward of Lewellen Pictures; Kidman and Per Saari for Blossom Films; Baker; Susannah Grant (Unbelievable, Erin Brockovich); Jordan Cerf; and Joe Hipps, under his Cut To banner at A24.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe ever-busy Kidman is coming off the second seasons of Nine Perfect Strangers (Hulu) and Lioness (Paramount+) and limited series The Perfect Couple (Netflix) and has Scarpetta<\/a> (Prime Video) and potentially a third season of HBO\u2019s Big Little Lies<\/a> on the horizon in addition to Margo\u2019s Got Money Troubles. She also recently wrapped filming on Practical Magic 2<\/a> with Sandra Bullock.<\/p>\n

\n\tFanning stars in the forthcoming Predator: Badlands<\/a>, due for release in November, and is set to play Effie Trinket<\/a> in The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping. Her recent credits also include A Complete Unknown and Sentimental Value, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival earlier this month. <\/p>\n

\n\tBaker, meanwhile, is currently adapting her novel The Husbands for an Amazon MGM Studios feature starring Kristen Wiig. She also co-wrote the screenplay for Prime Video\u2019s upcoming holiday movie Oh. What. Fun.<\/a>, which is based on her short story. <\/p>\n

\n\tBaker is repped by CAA, Writers House, Linden and Jackoway Austen; Kidman, by CAA, Media Talent Group and Jackoway Austen; Fanning, by UTA, TFC Management and Hansen Jacobsen; and Grant, by UTA and Adam Berkowitz of Lenore Entertainment Group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nicole Kidman, Elle Fanning and A24 are teaming up for a legal thriller series.
