Nicole Kidman's Nine Perfect Strangers co-star opens up on 'intimate' scenes

Mark Strong, who stars in the second season of Nine Perfect Strangers, has opened up about his character David and his connection with Nicole Kidman's Masha. Nine Perfect Strangers star Mark Strong has dished some details about his experience working alongside Nicole Kidman in the hit series. Returning for a gripping second season with Nicole leading the cast, the suspenseful drama sees Mark playing the role of David, a wealthy dad on a transformative retreat with his son. ‌ The renowned Kingsman actor, 61, hinted Nicole helped get him onboard with the show, and teased their "intimate" storyline. ‌ While chatting on The One Show this evening (June 10), he hinted at a blossoming intimacy between their characters, quipping: "I'm sure she had to work out whether she wanted to get intimate with me. "The storyline that we have, without giving too much away, becomes quite intimate," he confessed. Host Alex Jones responded with "That's a huge compliment," to which Mark agreed. Earlier in tonight's episode of The One Show on BBC, Mark delved into his character, stating: "It was nice to play a billionaire, I've got to that age where I'm the guy who has everything or knows everything so that's a good place to be." He hinted at a significant plot development involving his and Nicole's characters, remarking: "There is a connection between his character and Nicole's character that comes out through the series." ‌ Expressing his enthusiasm for the series, he added: "Drama TV needs plot, get nine people in a room, with their own problems, give them a load of psychedelics, and then see what happens, that's essentially what she did." Jokingly concluding, he said: "Not my idea of a wellness retreat I have to say!" ‌ The latest instalment of the psychological drama is teased in the show's plot summary: "Nine new strangers connected in ways they could never imagine are invited by mysterious guru Masha Dmitrichenko to join a transformational wellness retreat in the Austrian Alps. "Over the course of a week, she takes them to the brink. Will they make it? Will she? "Masha is willing to try anything in the interest of healing everyone involved, including herself." The star-studded cast also includes Henry Golding, Lena Olin, Annie Murphy, Christine Baranski, Lucas Englander, King Princess, Murray Bartlett, Dolly de Leon, Maisie Richardson-Sellers, and Aras Aydin. The One Show airs weekdays from 7pm on BBC One and iPlayer. Nine Perfect Strangers is available to watch on Amazon Prime Video with new episodes dropping on Thursday.

Vick stressed on air that she didn't want to make a big deal out of her pregnancy. She said: 'This is not an announcement, by the way. People keep saying are you going to announce, are you going to announce? And I'm like, I'm not the King. 'I'll be honest, I struggle with anything that's personal or private. I will tell you a story about eating a kebab out of a bin, that's one thing. 'But there's a line and so I've never been that big on sharing. Particularly because I've just been enjoying this privately and quietly.'
