Recently picking up a Golden Globe for her role in Escape at Dannemora, Patricia Arquette (pictured) will continue her work in the true crime genre in Hulu's The Act. She plays Dee Dee Blanchard, a Louisiana woman who had a tenuous and toxic relationship with her daughter Gypsy. According to Dee Dee, Gypsy, portrayed by Joey King, suffered from illnesses such as leukemia, asthma, muscular dystrophy, and brain damage. Gypsy's search for independence eventually led to murder.
The shocking true story has already been made into a documentary and a made-for-TV movie, as well as inspiring an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Besides Arquette and King, the rest of the talented cast includes Chloë Sevigny, AnnaSophia Robb, and Calum Worthy.
Release date: March 20
