Hulu is developing Murdaugh Murders, a crime story about a real-life family made infamous by Mandy Matney’s popular Murdaugh Murders podcast.
Deadline first reported on the project in April when it was picked up by UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group. The series aims to be the definitive account of Alex Murdaugh, a member of the prominent South Carolina legal family who has faced dozens of embezzlement and other criminal charges. He has been named a person of interest in the gruesome murder of his wife and son and alleged co-conspirator with his oxycodone supplier in an assisted suicide and insurance fraud attempt. Murdaugh’s sons and other members of the family have also been linked to two deaths, while the passing of his housekeeper is considered suspicious, too.
