About “Malice” in a few words:

Malice (2025) is a psychological thriller on Prime Video. It centers on Adam Healey, a charming tutor who inserts himself into the wealthy Tanner family while they holiday in Greece. But things get sinister fast — when their nanny falls ill, Adam slips into their London home and begins manipulating every part of their lives.

Meet the characters from Malice

Adam Healey

Adam Healey is the quiet, uneasy center of the story — calm smile, restless brain, always five steps ahead and then suddenly reckless. He’s a brilliant professional whose skill is only matched by his tendency to make morally gobsmacking choices at three in the morning; honestly, he paces the kitchen with a mug he swears is empty but never throws out. Protective, stubborn, prone to guilt; he says he’s fine but he’s not — classic unreliable calm. Also, small detail: he hums old jingles when nervous and has a weird stamp collection he keeps in his wallet like it matters, and somehow it does.

Jamie Tanner

Jamie is electric — the person who drags a room into the scandal whether they meant to or not. Sharp, funny, maybe a little cruel but with pockets of genuine warmth, she (or he? the vibe changes) plays people like chess pieces while secretly rooting for the underdog, which is confusing but delightfully human. Schemer and truth-teller in equal measure: the one who unravels plots and also makes them, often wearing sneakers with formal wear because why not. Collects Polaroids of strangers and cries at bad sitcom finales, and will contradict their own perfectly laid plan with something wildly compassionate at the last second.

Nat Tanner

Nat is the anchor — steady, wary, the person who remembers birthdays and grudges with equal fervor. He (or she) has an old-soul skepticism that keeps the family from collapsing but also keeps them from trusting anyone new; reliable, not a flashy hero. Practical, sarcastic, secretly sentimental: there’s a box of unsent letters under the bed and a guilty love for cheesy pop ballads played on repeat when the house is empty. Occasionally shocks everyone with a spontaneous, borderline reckless trip or a poetic 2 a.m. rant nobody asked for but somehow needed.

April Tanner

April is a wildfire of contradictions: intense, fragile, brilliant in bursts, and utterly infuriating in others. She’s the wildcard—creative, irrational, and weirdly perceptive; notices patterns in chaos and burns dinner like it’s performance art. Loves daisies and skepticism, sleeps too little, hoards receipts, and speaks in metaphors when under pressure; instincts are messy but sharp. Tiny thing: she hates pigeons but carries a pigeon-shaped keychain she won’t explain, which probably means something.
