'Happy Face' TV Adaptation from Robert and Michelle King Officially Picked Up by Paramount+


'The Good Fight' and 'Evil' creators are back again with Paramount+ with another drama series.

Robert and Michelle King are adapting the iHeartMedia and Melissa Jesperson-Moore podcast, 'Happy Face' into a true-crime drama series.

Jumping off from Melissa's true-life story, in the series for Paramount+, her father contacts her to take credit for another victim, and Melissa gets pulled into an extraordinary investigation of her father and his crimes. The series follows her as she discovers the impact her father's crimes had on the families of his victims, which ultimately leads to a reckoning of her own identity.

 
King Size Productions' Liz Glotzer, Melissa Jesperson-Moore, and iHeartMedia's Bob Pittman and Conal Byrne will also serve as executive producers. Jennifer Cacicio will write and also executive produce the series.

"Melissa's unique, deeply personal and utterly shocking story has captivated listeners around the world. We couldn't be more excited to have Jennifer at the helm of this project for Paramount+ alongside the incomparable Robert and Michelle King," said Nicole Clemens, President, Paramount+ Original Scripted Series. "THE GOOD FIGHT and more recently EVIL are two of the most successful series on our service, and we look forward to bringing our subscribers yet another series for fans to love."
