There are so many thriller films slated to come to Netflix this year, and we can’t wait to watch every single one! The Good Nurse is a thriller film everyone should be on the lookout for because of the amazingly talented cast and story. If you’re just as excited as us to see the upcoming original movie, you must know everything there is to know about it.
The Good Nurse is helmed by Academy-nominated director Tobias Lindholm from a script written by Krysty Wilson-Cairns. It’s based on the 2013 novel titled the same name by Charles Graeber. FilmNation Entertainment and Protozoa Pictures produced the film.
Lionsgate was initially set to distribute the movie before the entertainment company bowed out sometime in 2020. In 2021, Netflix bought streaming rights to the film for $25 million at the Berlin European Film Market, and now the thriller is a Netflix original movie.
