Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Monday that Josh Lucas will play Greg, the lawyer who is the husband of Nicole Kidman’s character’s partner in the eight-episode series.
- Elle Fanning stars as Lenny, a summer associate at a Dallas law firm who discovers she signed the same non-disclosure agreement she is investigating, a central plot point that drives the show’s focus on secrecy and power.
- Author Chandler Baker is adapting her short story for television and serves as writer and an executive producer alongside Nicole Kidman, Elle Fanning and veteran TV producer Susannah Grant.
- A24 is producing Discretion for Paramount+ after the streamer acquired the series straight-to-series in October 2025, and production is scheduled to start later in 2026 with a target premiere in 2027.
- The series is being positioned as a star-driven prestige project that draws on Baker’s real-world experience negotiating NDAs and reflects Paramount+ and A24’s push for high-profile limited drama on streaming.
