It’s a format that’s been a hit for several years, and not just on Netflix. The anthology series, whose cast and plot changes each season, was especially popular with prolific Hollywood showrunner Ryan Murphy.

As for the next one, which is currently filming, it will focus on Ed Gein, who was the inspiration for the character of Norman Bates (Psycho, Bates Motel…).

Who Killed Mini-Miss?

The first season of Unspeakable will focus on a bad crime case that took place in 1996 in the United States. The death of John Bennett Ramsey, a little girl at the age of 6. The latter was famous for winning several beauty contests, to the point where the local press nicknamed her the new “Little Miss Sunshine”. Thirty years after the events, the police still have no evidence of the perpetrator of this terrible crime.

The series is about parents Patsy and John Bennett Ramsey, played by Melissa McCarthy and Clive Owen. The former is a former beauty queen, and the latter is a successful entrepreneur. Season 1 will explore their marriage, their complicated relationship, and how the drama destroyed the image of the perfect family they created.

No release date has been announced for Unspeakable, but if the quality is there, this new anthology could be a huge success for Paramount+.
