Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon showed Lily Gladstone is one of the best actresses in the world working today. Now she’s ready to show off her A-list star power with another leading role in a story about murder. Only this time she’ll be the one investigating it. Gladstone stars opposite Riley Keough in Under the Bridge, Hulu‘s upcoming series based on a terrible true crime with an intriguing trailer. This is a story that is too heinous to imagine.
We’ll watch anything Lily Gladstone is in, but she’s not the only thing Under the Bridge has going for it. This Under the Bridge trailer packs an enormous punch. This intense, unsettling look lets us know that something very evil happened and who did it. If you want to watch the show without knowing exactly what took place, though, here’s the series’ official synopsis from Hulu.
Under the Bridge is based on acclaimed author Rebecca Godfrey’s book about the 1997 true story of fourteen-year old Reena Virk (Vritika Gupta) who went to join friends at a party and never returned home. Through the eyes of Godfrey and a local police officer, the series takes us into the hidden world of the young girls accused of the murder — revealing startling truths about the unlikely killer.
Under the Bridge comes from Quinn Shepherd, who adapted it from Godfrey’s award-winning 2005 book. The two also serve as executive producers along with Samir Mehta, Liz Tigelaar, Stacey Silverman, Tara Duncan, and Geeta Patel (who also directs).
What Is the Premiere Date for Hulu’s Under the Bridge?
The series also features Chloe Guidry, Ezra Faroque Khan, Archie Panjabi, Izzy G, Javon “Wanna” Walton, and Aiyana Goodfellow, who we see in action in Under the Bridge‘s traler. The eight-episode season will premiere on Hulu on April 17, with its first two episodes. Episodes will then be released weekly. We’re confident they will also serve as the latest reminder Lily Gladstone is one of the best actresses in the world.
