Netflix's latest thriller, The Perfect Couple, landed on our screens this week – and viewers have wasted no time getting stuck into the series.

Featuring a star-studded cast, including Nicole Kidman, Eve Hewson and Dakota Fanning, the murder mystery follows Amelia Sacks (Hewson), who is about to wed into one of Nantucket's wealthiest families and her disapproving mother-in-law, novelist Greer Garrison Winbury (Kidman), has ensured the high-society wedding will be the biggest event of the season. But things take a dramatic turn when a body is discovered on the beach and everyone is a suspect.

While viewers have been loving the gripping episodes, some were a little distracted by Nicole's appearance.

Taking to social media, one person wrote: "Why did they give Nicole Kidman such a terrible wig? She deserves better!" while another added: "Nicole Kidman is another awful wig #ThePerfectCouple."

A third person commented: "This wig is a CRIME," while another agreed, writing: "The real crime in #ThePerfectCouple is Greer's wig."

Nicole has worn wig for many of her acting roles, including in 2019's Bombshell, in which she played journalist Gretchen Carlson, and in her hit TV show, Big Little Lies. 

However, not all fans took issue with Greer's hair, with one person praising the character's appearance. #ThePerfectCouple is HIGH camp and once again Nicole and her wigologist eat every time," they penned.
