• Grace Van Patten portrays Knox and said she stayed in close contact with Knox during preparation, including learning Italian; Giuseppe De Domenico plays Raffaele Sollecito.
• Amanda Knox and former boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito appeared together at the New York red carpet premiere alongside the actors who play them.
• Italian reaction has been split, with Corriere della Sera calling the show a caricature and the Kercher family’s lawyer criticizing Knox’s continued earnings, while some commentators defend it as an indictment of Italy’s justice system.
