Nicole Kidman is starring in (and producing!) a Hitchcock-style thriller set during Holland’s famous Tulip Time festival, hitting screens in March 2025.
She’s already got the towering Dutchie height down. 👇
But before you get too excited about seeing Amsterdam’s canals dripping in crime, we’ve got some disappointing news….
It’s not our Holland
Turns out, the movie is set in Holland, Michigan — a charming American town founded in 1847 by Dutch Calvinist separatists.
These folks were so obsessed with windmills and clogs that they decided to recreate the Netherlands… just with fewer bikes and more American accents.😬
Jokes aside, these Dutch pioneers escaped religious persecution and settled near the Black River, which flows into Black Lake (now Lake Macatawa), leading to Lake Michigan.
The city even has its own Tulip Time Festival, held every May, boasting over a million tulips, parades and all the Dutch heritage your klompen(clog)-loving heart could desire.
Hollywood, but make it Dutch
Alright, so this thriller might not take place in our Netherlands, but it still has plenty of tulips, clogs, and murder mystery fun.
🎥Here’s the trailer:
As The Hollywood Reporter spills, Kidman plays Nancy Vandergroot, a schoolteacher who suspects that her husband (played by Matthew Macfayden) is a serial killer.
Yep, sounds like a perfectly gezellig date night movie. 💀
Directed by Andrew Androski and Mimi Cave, the movie will officially drop on Amazon Prime on March 27, 2025.
So, if Kidman’s film doesn’t scare you off, maybe it’s time to book a trip and see some Dutch roots in action!
Will Nicole Kidman’s character solve the crime? And most importantly—will there be any Dutch people in this movie? 🤔 Drop your thoughts in the comments!
