In March, Italy's supreme court ordered a re-trial for both - this time in Florence - following the first two trials in Perugia that were marked by controversy. An appeal court in 2011 acquitted both, overturning 2009 convictions by a lower court. In an exclusive interview Knox, now aged 26, explains describes her experiences and explains why she will not be returning to face another protracted series of hearings. — Image Credit: Disney

Nearly 20 years after she was imprisoned and wrongfully convicted of murder, Amanda Knox agreed to bring her story to the small screen. The new Hulu miniseries The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox explores her experiences, the murder case of Meredith Kercher and the falling out that Knox faced from the media and the court of public opinion. Lead cast member Grace Van Patten — who plays Knox — knew she had a responsibility in her performance.

“This is not a show about the worst experience of someone’s life,” Knox explained to The New York Times in August 2025, ahead of the show’s premiere. “This is the show of a person’s choice to find closure on their own terms and to reclaim a sense of agency in their own life after that agency has been stolen from them.”

Below, get to know the main cast in Hulu’s The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox and more about the show.
