Jessica Biel is axe murderer Candy Montgomery in trailer for Hulu true crime drama Candy

March 17, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Hulu has released the first trailer and images for the upcoming crime drama Candy. The limited series is based on the true story of Candy Montgomery (Jessica Biel), a housewife who brutally murdered her friend Betty Gore (Melanie Lynskey) with an axe in the small town of Wylie, Texas in 1980. Watch the Candy trailer here…

Candy Montgomery is a 1980 housewife and mother who did everything right—good husband, two kids, nice house, even the careful planning and execution of transgressions—but when the pressure of conformity builds within her, her actions scream for just a bit of freedom. With deadly results.

Candy premieres on May 9th on Hulu and features a cast that also includes Timothy Simons, Pablo Schreiber, and Raúl Esparza.
