Jessica Biel and Elizabeth Banks navigate familial tension, secrets, and murder at home in Prime Video's adaptation of Alafair Burke's crime novel The Better Sister.
In the eight-part series, with a trailer out today, the pair play estranged sisters Chloe and Nicky, whose lives are very different. Chloe is soaring at the top of her executive job and living a seemingly idyllic family life. Conversely, Nicky is in a pretty bad place, struggling with addiction. But the kicker is that her ex Adam (Corey Stoll) is now Chloe's husband and they live together with and Nicky's teen son Ethan (Maxwell Acee Donovan) — essentially, Chloe is living what could have been Nicky's life.
When Chloe returns home after a fancy event to find Adam murdered, Chloe and Nicky find themselves reunited and wading into some family truths while Detectives Nancy Guidry (Kim Dickens) and Matt Bowen (Bobby Naderi) investigate his death. Matthew Modine, Lorraine Toussaint, Gabriel Sloyer, and Gloria Reuben also star.
The last time Jessica Biel was in a crime thriller series about sisters everything turned out fine, right?
The Better Sister is streaming on Prime Video on May 29.
