Winter Warmer Watchlist - The Last Anniversary - Miniseries

I've finally made my way back to The Last Anniversary.

Following Nine Perfect Stranger's random second season recently, Liane Moriarty is doing well on the small screen in 2025.

Directed by John Polson and is an adaptation by Samantha Strauss of the Liane Moriarty novel of the same name. 

It is executive produced by Nicole Kidman amongst other producers. 

Starring Binge favourite Teresa Palmer (also the lead in MixTape), Miranda Richardson, Danielle Macdonald, Helen Thomson, Susan Prior, Claude Scott-Mitchell, Charlie Garber, Uli Latukefu & Jeremy Lindsay Taylor.

Uli Latukefu is also currently starring as a lead in Amazon's action romp, Countdown.

So what's The Last Anniversary all about? Sophie Honeywell (Palmer) inherits a house on Scribbly Gum Island from her ex-boyfriend's great-aunt Connie. However the island has many secrets.

Apparently, Moriarty insisted that the novel be filmed in Australia, because according to producer Jodi Matterson the location where the book is set, on the Hawkesbury River in New South Wales, Moriarty considered to be a real character within the story.

Filming began in Sydney in November 2023, with the series streaming March till May this year.

It was an easy six episode watch. Filmed across beautiful sights around the Hawkesbury River.

Using great music across the six episodes, The Last Anniversary was a solid local production. Moriarty has now had a decent share of her books turned into series. With HBO apparently with the rights to Truly Madly Guilty.

I must say I enjoyed this more than Apples Never Fall that streamed on Peacock, in Australia Binge like The Last Anniversary.

Now we wait patiently for a third Big Little Lies and news of renewal for Nine Perfect Strangers. Nicole Kidman is 100% in demand right now!
