Melissa McCarthy, Clive Owen to Star in JonBenét Ramsey Limited Series at Paramount+


Melissa McCarthy and Clive Owen are set to lead a limited series on the JonBenét Ramsey case at Paramount+, Variety has learned.

At the heart of the series, it is the story of Patsy and John Ramsey – exploring the unbreakable partnership of these two complex people – as husband and wife, as mother and father – who had committed themselves and their children to building the narrative of a perfect, privileged life only to have it destroyed one Christmas night in 1996.” “The incredible talent of Melissa McCarthy, Clive Owen and the creative team led by Richard LaGravenese will illuminate her story with the acuity and nuance it deserves.” Owen was nominated for the Academy Award for best supporting actor for the Mike Nichols film “Closer” and received an Emmy nomination for best in a miniseries or movie for playing Ernest Hemingway in “Hemingway & Gellhorn.” He has recently starred in shows like “Monsieur Spade,” “Impeachment: American Crime Story,” and “A Murder at the End of the World” and previously led the period medical drama “The Knick.” He is known for his roles in films like “Children of Men,” “Croupier,” “Gosford Park,” “Inside Man,” “Sin City,” and “Shoot ‘Em Up.”
