Nicole Kidman to Begin Filming Netflix Series in Massachusetts Next Week – What We Know!

We might need to borrow that Hollywood sign for a little while. Massachusetts is getting another major production as Nicole Kidman is set to begin filming on Cape Cod next week for a new Netflix project. It'll be a 6 episode murder-mystery limited series called The Perfect Couple, based on best-selling author Elin Hilderbrand’s 2018 novel of the same name.

Nicole Kidman, Dakota Fanning, Liev Schriber, and Meghann Fahy are all expected to be a part of the whodunnit which will begin filming in Chatham next week and will shoot through most of June.

Mass is becoming a hotbed of Hollywood activity as last week Matt Damon and Casey Affleck were all over Boston while filming their upcoming crime drama The Instigators.

Hey if any of these productions are looking for a stand-in lead guy....... don't look at me, I'm in radio. You know what they say about our faces. But if Keith Urban is visiting the set and gets bored send him to Waltham. He can hop on and guest host with me any afternoon! :)

And the celebs aren't just coming TO Massachusetts. We actually have a bunch of actors (up first), actresses (up second), and professional wrestlers (at the end of the list) FROM Massachusetts. Curious who?

Admiring and envying the world's biggest stars is easy to do on Instagram. From A-list movie stars and major musicians to pro ball players and comedians who landed their own sitcoms, there's no shortage of evidence of just how good the good life is. They post pictures of themselves with other big shots on rooftop bars, at exclusive clubs, at backstage parties, and at restaurants where regular people can't get a reservation.

But the vast majority of these celebrities were born and raised outside of Hollywood, finding their way to the bright lights and big money of superstardom from obscure beginnings in regular small towns or cities across the country.

Stacker compiled a list of actors that were born in Massachusetts from IMDb’s most popular list. For each actor, we included a movie poster image from a film he is known for (all movie poster images from OMDb). Keep reading to see which favorite actors are from your home state.

I'm a life-long wrestling fan. No, not collegiate or Greco-Roman, I'm not that classy. I'm a life-long fan of the bad-soap-opera-steel-chairs-and-barbed-wire-Jimmy-Superfly-Snuka-off-the-top-rope-the-flashier-the-better-sometimes-cringeworthy form of wrestling and I'm proud of it.

One thing I love about pro-wrestling is the fans' connection with the hometown guys and girls. Many times even if the wrestler is the biggest villain going, when they come home they get a hero's welcome. Boston has always been great to it's hometown stars of wrestling - BUT - some names on this list even surprised me and I consider myself a bit of a pro-wrestling O.G.
