All Lead Actors in The Perfect Couple

Amelia and her fiancee, standing in front of guests, in The Perfect Couple.

Nicole Kidman as Greer Garrison Winbury

Nicole Kidman plays Greer Garrison Winbury, mother of the groom, who’s kind and loved by all. I’m kidding of course. This being a crime series, Kidman’s mystery novelist is pretty terrible. She’s a complete snob, looking down on bride-to-be Amelia and her family. Kidman has a filmography as long as your arm, including Eyes Wide Shut, To Die For, and Nine Perfect Strangers.

Liev Schreiber as Tag Winbury

Tag Winbury is Greer’s husband, a member of an old money family and far more chilled out than his wife. However, he does have to deal with a member of his family approaching him for a loan to cover for their own financial misadventures. Tag is played by Liev Schrieber who, apart from being that creepy police officer in Phantoms, played Cotton Weary in several Scream films and also voiced Kingpin in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

Eve Hewson as Amelia Sacks

Amelia Sacks is the future bride of Benji Winbury, provided she can avoid throttling her future mother-in-law. Outwardly, she’s very much in love with Benji (his family not so much), but she’s having second thoughts. She’s played by Eve Hewson who was nurse Lucy Elkins in medical series The Knick, though her screen debut was with a gothed-up Sean Penn in This Must Be the Place.

Billy Howle as Benji Winbury

Amelia’s fiancĆ©, Benji, comes across as a thoroughly decent person, though you’ll have to watch to see if there are any skeletons in his closet. He’s played by Billy Howle, who you may have seen in the Andrew Garfield-led crime drama Under the Banner of Heaven.

Dakota Fanning as Abby Winbury

Dakota Fanning, who you’ll know from many, many movies (including The Equalizer 3) is Amelia’s future sister-in-law. She’s currently pregnant, and despite marrying into the Winbury family looks down her nose at Amelia just like Greer.

Michael Beach as Chief of Police Dan Carter

Dan Carter is the chief of police who, having got used to the quiet life, now finds himself tracking down a murderer amongst a family who all have their own daggers to wield. Fans of Netflix’s now-cancelled Dead Boy Detectives will have seen him as Tragic Mick.

Donna Champlin as Detective Nikki Henry

Donna Champlin (Paula Proctor in Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) is Detective Nikki Henry, who teams up with Dan to get to the bottom of the death. They don’t always see eye to eye, but you can be sure they’ll unravel things eventually.
