Nicole Kidman starrer 'Big Little Lies' has been receiving rave reviews and recognition since its release. And now, branching out to the production side of things, the Australian actress' Blossom Films and Bruna Papandrea’s 'Made Up Stories' have finally closed a deal for movie and TV rights to Liane Moriarty's upcoming novel “Nine Perfect Strangers.” So far, Kidman is set to star in the highly anticipated novel's future production, and she will executive produce it too, along with Per Saari for Blossom Films, while Papandrea will do the same with Steve Hutensky for her 'Made Up Stories' banner.

Moriarty, who is also the author of “Big Little Lies,” will also serve as executive producer — meaning, she and Kidman are set to collaborate once again. While it is unknown whether the upcoming book will be turned into a film or a TV show, it is going to hit shelves on November 6 this year.
