New OTT releases to stream this September

The cliffhanger that Emily in Paris: Season 4, Part One left audiences at has made sure that we have a lot to look forward to this month with the second part set to stream on September 12.

There’s Ananya Panday making her web series debut in Call Me Bae in what seems like a role tailor-made for her, a murder mystery called The Perfect Couple that’s sure to leave us at the edge of our seats, and much more. 

The Perfect Couple

Fans of the murder mystery genre are in for a treat this month as Susane Bier, the show runner who gave us The Night Manager and The Undoing presents The Perfect Couple, a six-episode adaptation of Elin Hilderbrand's acclaimed novel. The official logline for the limited series is as follows: Amelia Sacks (Eve Hewson) is about to marry into one of the wealthiest families on Nantucket. Her disapproving future mother-in-law, famous novelist Greer Garrison Winbury (Nicole Kidman), has spared no expense in planning what promises to be the premiere wedding of the season—until a body turns up on the beach. As secrets come to light, the stage is set for a real-life investigation that feels plucked from the pages of one of Greer’s novels. Suddenly, everyone is a suspect. The show also stars Liev Schreiber and Ishaan Khatter.
