Nicole Kidman wouldn’t find herself in the same situation as the characters on her new series, "Nine Perfect Strangers," thanks to her husband’s distaste for wellness retreats.
Speaking about the series on "Good Morning America" Wednesday, Kidman discussed her character in the series, which premiered on Tuesday. Kidman plays an eccentric guru named Masha, who runs a retreat called Tranquillum House and may have more nefarious intentions in mind than simply addressing the nine members’ mental health.
In her interview, Kidman noted that she would be susceptible to the kind of manipulation or wellness promises that her character is making in the show. In fact, she notes she’s been to similar retreats.
"If someone had said that to me, ‘come give me yourself for 10 days and I will heal you,’ I’d be like ‘I’m in!’" she revealed.

She added: "I’ve checked into places when I was younger and I also went, maybe about a decade ago."
However, she explained that her relationship with Urban would prevent her from getting too far down the rabbit hole as the characters in "Nine Perfect Strangers" do.

However, when it comes to secluding themselves at wellness retreats, Urban’s tolerance is apparently much lower than Kidman’s.

"I’ve also checked in and checked out after two days because my husband never wants to go to some retreat with me," she said. "He’d be like ‘no way!’ That’s something you do with your girlfriends.’ I would definitely go to Tranquillum House."
