Deadline has reported that Elisabeth Moss’ true crime miniseries Candy has been picked by up Hulu.
Candy comes from The Act‘s Robin Veith and Nick Antosca, which was also a Hulu project. The limited series will see Moss as Candy Montgomery, a woman who killed her friend Betty Gore with an axe. The series is currently putting together its writer’s room.
In 1980 Texas, Candy Montgomery (Moss) seemingly had it all – loving husband with a good job, a daughter and a son, a nice house in the brand new suburbs – so why did she kill her friend from church with an axe?
Veith has written the pilot for Candy with Michael Uppendhal (Mad Men) directing. Moss will executive produce alongside Antosca, Lindsey McManus and Alex Hedlund.
