Melissa McCarthy and Clive Owen are set to lead the Paramount+ limited series currently titled JonBenet Ramsey. The planned series will be written by Richard LaGravense and series creators Harrison Query and Tommy Wallach. The Hollywood Reporter has stated that shiw limited series will follow the real-life case of a 6-year-old beauty pageant contestant JonBenet Ramsey, who was killed in her family home in December 1996. The murder case remains unsolved to this day.
Per the show’s description, the series will follow the Ramseys “as they go through the painful loss of a child while facing intense public scrutiny caused by a media frenzy that caused this case to captivate an entire nation. 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.”
