With a straight-to-series pickup from NBC, two-time Oscar-winning actress Renee Zellweger is on board to make her broadcast TV debut as both star and executive producer of “The Thing About Pam,” the hard-to-believe, real-life story that became a worldwide true-crime phenomenon.
The Thing About Pam is based on the 2011 murder of Betsy Faria that resulted in her husband Russ’s conviction, but he insisted he did not kill her. His conviction was later overturned. This brutal crime set off a chain of events that would expose a diabolical scheme deeply involving Pam Hupp.
