Arguably, no name is more synonymous with modern true crime than Amanda Knox. Wrongfully convicted of killing her roommate, Meredith Kercher, while studying abroad in Italy, a then-20-year-old Knox faced torrents of tabloid misogyny and four years in prison before she was ultimately exonerated.

Amanda Knox was just 20 years old in 2007 when her British roommate was found dead in their apartment. A new Hulu series dramatizes the story of her wrongful murder conviction.

The latest example is The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, a new Hulu series starring Grace Van Patten as the 20-year-old American college student, who, while studying abroad in Italy, was wrongfully accused of the murder of her roommate, Meredith Kercher, in November 2007.

Amanda Knox's wrongful murder conviction in Italy is back in the spotlight as a new Hulu limited series, "The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox" premieres on Aug. 20. Grace Van Patten portrays Knox in the eight-episode series, in which Knox is an executive producer alongside her husband, Christopher Robinson, and Monica Lewinsky.

The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox release schedule, including the time it lands on Hulu, episode details, and how to watch it for free.

After signing on to star in Hulu's "The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox," the actor only had two months to prepare for the role: "It was nice to kind of have a fire under me."

"Tell Me Lies" star Grace Van Patten reveals what made her want to tackle the role of Amanda Knox in "The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox." The series is streaming on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+.

The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox is Hulu's coming-of-age biographical drama that revisits one of the world's most hotly disputed trials over the last two decades.

Sharon Horgan told UPI she wanted to star in "The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox" because it is a nuanced family drama as opposed to a salacious true-crime saga.

Sharon Horgan had a complicated history with Amanda Knox's trial before being cast as her mom, Edda Mellas, in Hulu's 'Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox'
