Hulu Acquires “Murder By Medic”
Disney has picked up the US rights for a new true-crime series called “Murder By Medic”, which has been created by UK producer, FirstLookTV.
The documentary dissects the true story of a murderous physician as told by those who witnessed the case unfold.
They are the men and women we trust with our lives, but there are rogue medics who use their medical know-how to commit crimes – they try to get away with murder. Doctors, nurses, paramedics, dentists, and psychiatrists are trained to save, care, and cure, but what happens when evil enters their hearts? Each episode of Murder By Medic dissects the true story of a murderous physician as told by those who witnessed the case unfold, alongside medical experts and leading criminologists who delve deep into the psyche of the killer. What drives those who take an oath to save lives to kill instead?
The fifty episode series has also been picked up by other networks around the world including Shout! Studios, Hearst Networks’ Crime and Investigation Channel in the UK and Ireland, Greece, CEE, Benelux and Middle East; T+E for Blue Ant in Canada, Sky Deutschland for Austria, Germany and Switzerland and Palatin for Austria, Germany and Switzerland.
Lucy Middelboe from FirstLookTV said in a statement regarding Hulu picking up the series:
“We’re delighted that Shout! Studios and Hulu have acquired Murder by Medic. This series is proof that there are opportunities out there for compelling content when produced with the international market in mind.”
“Murder By Medic” is out now on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+.
