Netflix Is Bringing Zac Efron’s Chilling Ted Bundy Film to a TV Near You by Fall 2019
Apparently, Netflix heard their subscribers' calls for more true crime and are diving deep into the serial-killer abyss by sinking their claws into another Ted Bundy-focused project.
The Zac Efron-led Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival to fairly positive reviews and, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix is closing in on a deal to bring the feature film to the platform for $9 million.That's serious cash to spend on a Sundance acquisition (though not as much as Amazon paid for Mindy Kaling's Late Night), but the purchase would make sense.
The streaming service already has Conversations With a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes, a four-part miniseries that examines Bundy's life and crimes by using public statements, archival footage from the trial, previously unreleased interviews, and present-day interviews from experts, all to paint a fuller picture of just what kind of monster Bundy was.
