Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis elevate new crime drama Scarpetta, which is streaming now

The author’s first novel was considered for a movie way back in 1989, even before it was published. However, it’s taken 37 years for the main character, Dr. Kay Scarpetta, to finally appear on screen. Over the years, many famous actresses – including Jodie Foster, Helen Mirren, Demi Moore, and Angelina Jolie – were considered for the part. Now, Nicole Kidman will be playing Dr. Scarpetta.
