Nicole Kidman and cast didn’t want ‘The Perfect Couple’ opening dance scene

Nicole Kidman was not okay with the dance sequel that the director of the The Perfect Couple, Susanne Bier suggested for the opening scene of the Netflix murder mystery.

“Because I didn’t feel like Greer would dance! I felt like Greer would watch,” said Kidman, who joined a WhatsApp group made by the rest of the cast to protest against the idea, about her character, Winbury Matriarch Greer.

However, the actress later realised it was not that bad of an idea, as she “danced as Greer.” “I think it’s great and I’m so glad they got us all to do it. ‘Cause there’s some joy in it,” she said.

Despite Nicole and the rest of the cast’s mutiny against Bier’s idea, only Schrieber, who plays Greer’s husband Tag Winbury, was in from the start, as he revealed he “wasn’t in that [WhatsApp] chain.”

“The entire cast had a mutiny about this idea except for me, I was already in my trailer practicing the dance moves. I just like dancing and I was kinda disappointed when it came out that I’m not in it more because I thought I did it really well.”
