Nicole Kidman is facing criticism over her new crime drama Scarpetta after viewers and commentators accused the series of “glamorizing” violence against women through what critics describe as “nightmarishly graphic” scenes depicting murdered female victims.
The Oscar-winner, 59, stars in the new Prime Video series, an adaptation of the bestselling novels by crime writer Patricia Cornwell.
It follows forensic pathologist Dr. Kay Scarpetta, a medical examiner investigating a serial killer whose victims are women.
