First Look at Hulu’s “The Girl From Plainville” Starring Elle Fanning

Hulu has revealed a first look of the upcoming original limited series “The Girl From Plainville” starring and executive produced by Elle Fanning.

“The Girl From Plainville” is inspired by the true story of Michelle Carter’s unprecedented “texting-suicide” case. Based on the Esquire article of the same name by Jesse Barron, the limited series explores Carter’s relationship with Conrad Roy III and the events that led to his death and, later, her conviction of involuntary manslaughter.

Chloë Sevigny (Lynn Roy), Colton Ryan (Conrad “Coco” Roy III), Cara Buono (Gail Carter), Kai Lennox (David Carter), and Norbert Leo Butz (Conrad “Co” Roy II) will star alongside Elle Fanning (Michelle Carter).

From UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, the Hulu Original limited series is written and executive produced by co-showrunners Liz Hannah (“The Post”, “The Dropout”, “Mindhunter”) and Patrick Macmanus (“Dr. Death”), and also executive produced by Fanning and Echo Lake’s Brittany Kahan Ward. Consulting producers include Barron and Erin Lee Carr (“I Love You, Now Die”). Kelly Funke oversees for Macmanus’ Littleton Road Productions.
