In Prime Video’s upcoming drama series “Expats,” Nicole Kidman portrays Margaret, an American expatriate living in Hong Kong. The story unfolds as Margaret embarks on a journey of self-discovery after her son goes missing on foreign soil. The recently released trailer offers a glimpse into Margaret’s life before and after the tragic incident.
The trailer begins with Margaret expressing her desire for independence, emphasizing that she doesn’t want to be defined solely as someone’s wife or mother. Despite feeling at home in America, Margaret’s life takes a traumatic turn in Hong Kong, leading her to reflect on her past and the challenges she faces.
Margaret is shown as part of a tight-knit group of expat friends in Hong Kong, including Hilary (Sarayu Blue), who is dealing with marital issues, and Mercy (Ji-young Yoo), seeking a fresh start at 24. Together, they navigate the complexities of their personal and professional lives.
As the trailer unfolds, it is revealed that Mercy bears responsibility for Margaret’s loss, intensifying Margaret’s guilt and straining her relationship with Clarke, portrayed by Brian Tee. “Expats” explores themes of loss, guilt, and self-discovery against the backdrop of expatriate life in Hong Kong.
