The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox is an eight-episode limited series retelling the gripping true story of Amanda Knox’s harrowing journey — from being wrongfully imprisoned for her roommate’s murder to her years-long battle to prove her innocence and reclaim her freedom.
Created by KJ Steinberg (This Is Us, Gossip Girl), the series is produced by 20th Television in association with The Littlefield Company. Executive producers include Warren Littlefield, Lisa Harrison, Ann Johnson, Graham Littlefield, Monica Lewinsky, Amanda Knox, Chris Robinson, and Michael Uppendahl, who also directs.
Grace Van Patten takes on the challenging role of Amanda Knox, earning high praise for her performance. As the London Evening Standard noted:
“Grace Van Patten is fantastic as Knox, capturing not just her mannerisms but her unfortunate blend of brash Americanism and kookiness that gave the police and the press so much room to twist the knife.”
The series also features Sharon Horgan, John Hoogenakker, Francesco Acquaroli, Giuseppe De Domenico, and Roberta Mattei.
Premiering on Hulu on August 20, The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox is co-produced by Ildikó Kemény and David Minkowski of Pioneer Stillking — marking another exciting collaboration by our amazing team in Budapest, Hungary.
