"As the investigation unravels, so does the truth about how even the closest relationships can change over time," the synopsis adds.
Based on a novel by Araminta Hall, the show comes from Physical's Annie Weisman, and also stars For All Mankind's Joel Kinnaman, Ant-Man's Corey Stoll, Wildcat's Audrey Zahn and Hamilton's Leslie Odom Jr.
Moss and Washington are also on board as executive producers, the former saying previously: "From the moment I received Araminta’s novel, I couldn’t put it down. It was such an electrifying read; I fell in love with it immediately.
"I’ve admired Kerry and her work as an actor and producer for many years, and have been looking for something to work with her on."
Washington added: "I could not have been more thrilled to get this call from Elisabeth. I have been an immense fan of hers – both as a brilliant actor and groundbreaking producer – for years."
Imperfect Women will premiere on Wednesday, 18 March 2026 with two episodes on Apple TV, with each subsequent episode following on Wednesdays.
