The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox Streaming on Hulu
The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, a limited series that revisits the widely publicized wrongful conviction of then-college student Amanda Knox, began streaming on Aug. 20 on Hulu.
Episode Release Details
The first two episodes were released together on Aug. 20. Grace Van Patten portrays Knox, who also serves as an executive producer and co-writer on the final episode. Monica Lewinsky is credited as an executive producer as well.
The eight-episode drama tracks Knox’s 16-year struggle after being convicted in the 2007 murder of Meredith Kercher in Perugia. Knox spent nearly four years in an Italian prison before her acquittal, and the series examines both her fight to clear her name and the public and institutional forces that judged her.
Material Not Widely Known
Cast and creatives have suggested the show includes material not widely known to the public. Van Patten said the production revealed “new information,” and creator K.J. Steinberg noted that, as the series progresses, viewers will see Knox take a more active role in pursuing her freedom.
