Overview

• The first two episodes of The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox are available on Disney+, with weekly installments scheduled through October 1.
• Amanda Knox is credited as a producer on the eight-part series, which explicitly sets out to tell her version of the 2007 Perugia case.
• Meredith Kercher’s relatives, speaking via lawyer Francesco Maresca, criticized the show as an attempt to “rimescolare le carte” and to keep the case going.
• Critics fault the show’s romanced tone and the marginalization of Kercher, while Grace Van Patten’s portrayal of Knox has drawn praise.
• The series depicts early interrogations, including one later condemned by the European Court of Human Rights, and references the case’s outcomes for Knox, Raffaele Sollecito, and Rudy Guede.
