Nicole Kidman’s New Equestrian Drama Is Murderously Glamorous: ‘Girls and Their Horses’ Hits Prime Video

If you thought competitive horseback riding was just about braided manes and blue ribbons, Nicole Kidman is here to destroy that illusion—dramatically and fabulously. The Oscar-winning actress is saddling up for Girls and Their Horses, a sizzling, soon-to-be-streaming murder mystery series that dives deep into the cutthroat (literally?) world of elite equestrian competition. Developed by Amazon MGM Studios and Legendary Television, this Prime Video exclusive has all the ingredients of a binge-worthy hit: money, mystery, manipulation, and—oh yes—majestic horses.

Here’s everything you need to know about Nicole Kidman’s Girls and Their Horses TV show, including the premise, the creative team, and why this glossy thriller might just be your next obsession.

What Is Girls and Their Horses About?

Based on the novel by Eliza Jane Brazier, Girls and Their Horses is set in the opulent enclave of Rancho Santa Fe, California—a place where wealth whispers and secrets scream. The story centers around the Parker family, newly arrived and eager to cement their social status through their daughters' entry into the elite world of show jumping.

What starts as polished perfection and picture-perfect ponies quickly turns dark. Beneath the tailored riding jackets and gleaming saddles is a world of envy, ambition, and dangerous competition. Oh, and did we mention murder? Because someone winds up very dead.

Nicole Kidman: From Big Little Lies to Big Saddle Energy

Nicole Kidman isn’t just starring in Girls and Their Horses—she’s executive producing it too, because of course she is. Kidman has made a second career of taking bestselling novels and turning them into prestige television that looks like a Vogue spread and feels like a therapy session with a body count (Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers, The Undoing, anyone?).

In this new series, she’ll play the powerful and enigmatic Parker family matriarch. If we had to bet money, she’s either hiding a dark past, solving the murder, or maybe even committing it. Either way, we’ll be watching.

Behind the Reins: Who’s Making This Series?

The show is being helmed by Jenna Lamia, who previously worked with Kidman on The Perfect Couple for Netflix. Lamia is known for blending dark humor with suspense, and if her past work is any indicator, Girls and Their Horses will be more than just a pretty picture. Expect biting dialogue, twists you won’t see coming, and a visual aesthetic that could make a Ralph Lauren catalog blush.

Why Equestrian Drama Is Having a Moment

Let’s be real: horses + drama = timeless entertainment. From The Saddle Club to Mystic, there’s a niche market for equestrian-themed storytelling, but none have galloped into the psychological thriller genre quite like this. Girls and Their Horses is aiming for the sweet spot between Gossip Girl and Big Little Lies, with an extra dose of horse hair and haute couture.

If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if Yellowjackets and Downton Abbey went to pony camp together, this might be the show for you.

When and Where Can You Watch?

The series is still in development, and while no official release date has been announced, it’s expected to stream on Prime Video. Casting beyond Kidman remains under wraps, but expect a mix of up-and-coming talent and some seriously scene-stealing horses.

Saddle Up, This One’s Gonna Be Wild

Nicole Kidman’s Girls and Their Horses TV show promises to be a darkly glamorous dive into a world where teenage ambition, parental pressure, and murder mix in the most cinematic way possible. Whether you're in it for the suspense, the equestrian aesthetics, or just to see Kidman throw side-eye in a Hermès scarf, this show looks like a thoroughbred contender for your next binge-watch.

So polish your boots, prep your popcorn, and stay tuned—because in this arena, the stakes are as high as the fences.
