Fans of Making a Murderer have been eagerly awaiting something to satisfy real-life crime cravings since binge-watching the Netflix series a few months ago. Fortunately, the team behind the unprecedented series about Steven Avery is already working on something new.
The next TV project for Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos, the two directors behind Making a Murderer, will be a scripted drama produced by the one and only George Clooney. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the series, titled America’s Most Admired Lawbreaker, will follow “the true story of a venerable pharmaceutical company that created a powerful drug and marketed it aggressively to children and the elderly while allegedly manipulating and hiding data about its side effects.”
But, what about a second season of Making a Murderer and continuing to dig deeper into the case of Teresa Halbach? Well, a follow-up is still up in the air. During a recent panel discussion at New York’s IFC Center, Ricciardi explained, “We do know that two potential outcomes are that the judge could order Brendan’s release or he could order a new trial. So we are on the edge of seats about that. To the extent that there are significant developments, we would like to continue documenting this (case).”
So in other words: Stay tuned…
