Overview
- The six-episode limited series is written by Bash Doran and will star and be executive produced by Anne Hathaway.
- Producing partners include MGM Television, Toluca Pictures, Vanity Fair Studios and Hathaway’s Somewhere Pictures, with members of the Palm family also serving as executive producers.
- Fear Not adapts Julie Miller’s Vanity Fair feature about Margy Palm and serial killer Stephen Morin, framing a true-crime story through faith and survival.
- It is among the first major buys under Cindy Holland and Jane Wiseman as Paramount+ expands a female-forward slate that recently added the legal drama Discretion.
- Deadline reports the project was fast-tracked after delivery of a pilot rewrite, a backup script and a series bible in December, with timing influenced by Hathaway’s limited fall 2026 availability following a development path that began with a 2023 bidding war and an initial setup at Prime Video.
