Grace Van Patten to Play Amanda Knox in Hulu Limited Series Following Margaret Qualley’s Exit


Grace Van Patten will play Amanda Knox in Hulu's upcoming Knox-produced limited series following Margaret Qualley's exit due to scheduling conflicts.

Per the official description, the eight-episode limited series is “based on the true story of how Knox was wrongfully convicted for the murder of her roommate Meredith Kercher, and her 16-year odyssey to set herself truly free.” She also starred in David E. Kelley’s Hulu limited series “Nine Perfect Strangers.” Other credits include the films “A Violent Heart,” “Good Posture,” “Under the Silver Lake” and “Mayday.” In 2017, she was named on Variety ‘s list of 10 Actors to Watch for her performance in Noah Baumback’s “The Meyerowitz Stories.” Kate McKinnon was originally attached to play Elizabeth Holmes in the 2022 limited series “The Dropout,” though the role later earned an Emmy for Amanda Seyfried.
