Renee Zellweger is murderer Pam Hupp in trailer for The Thing About Pam

February 8, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

NBC has released a trailer and images from the crime drama The Thing About Pam. Inspired by the 2019 hit podcast and based on the 2011 murder of Betsy Faria, the series stars Renee Zellweger as Pam Hupp, a woman who was implicated in at least two homicides between 2011-2016 and was eventually convicted after her diabolical scheming was exposed; take a look here…

NBC’s “The Thing About Pam” is based on the 2011 murder of Betsy Faria that resulted in her husband Russ’ conviction, although he insisted he didn’t kill her. He was later exonerated. This brutal crime set off a chain of events that would expose a diabolical scheme deeply involving Pam Hupp.

A thorough examination of the scheme was featured on several episodes of “Dateline NBC,” becoming one of the most popular topics to ever air on the hit franchise. It also became the subject of a popular 2019 podcast, “The Thing About Pam,” which remains one of the most downloaded podcasts on Apple Podcasts.

The series also stars Josh Duhamel, Judy Greer, Katy Mixon, Glenn Fleshler, Gideon Adlon, Sean Bridgers, Suanne Spoke and Mac Brandt.

The Thing About Pam premieres on NBC on March 8th.
