Hulu’s Murdaugh Murders Series Starring Jason Clarke and Patricia Arquette to Film in Atlanta

Hulu’s highly anticipated scripted series about the infamous Murdaugh family murders is set to begin production in Atlanta in March 2025. The series, which will delve into the crimes and controversies surrounding the prominent South Carolina family, has cast Jason Clarke and Patricia Arquette in the lead roles.

Production Details
The series will be filmed at Doraville’s Assembly Studios, a growing hub for major productions in the Atlanta area. According to a notice sent to IATSE 479 members, the union representing crew members in the region, the tentative production schedule spans from March 3 through June 13, 2025. Assembly Studios is also hosting other major productions, including NBC’s Grosse Pointe Garden Society and CBS’s Beyond the Gates.

The Story and Cast
Jason Clarke, known for standout performances in Oppenheimer and HBO’s Winning Time, will portray Alex Murdaugh. Murdaugh, a once-powerful South Carolina attorney, was convicted of murdering his wife and son in 2021 and is serving a life sentence. Alongside these crimes, Murdaugh admitted to stealing millions from his law firm and clients but continues to deny the murder charges, appealing his convictions.

Academy Award-winner Patricia Arquette will play Maggie Murdaugh, Alex’s wife. Arquette is celebrated for her roles in Medium, Severance, and critically acclaimed films such as Boyhood and True Romance.

The series, based on reporting by Mandy Matney, the journalist behind the popular Murdaugh Murders Podcast, will explore the family’s deep legal and political influence in South Carolina’s Lowcountry. Over the years, the Murdaughs faced allegations of fraud, corruption, and violent crimes, culminating in the shocking double homicide that captivated national attention.

Background on the Murdaugh Story
The Murdaughs were once a revered family in South Carolina, wielding significant power in the legal and political arenas. However, their fall from grace has been the subject of widespread media attention, including Netflix’s hit documentary The Murdaugh Murders and Lifetime’s dramatization The Murdaugh Murders: A Movie.

Why Atlanta?
Atlanta continues to solidify its reputation as a top filming destination in the United States, thanks to its generous tax incentives, world-class production facilities, and experienced crew base. With the production of Hulu’s Murdaugh series, Atlanta’s status as a hub for high-profile TV projects is further cemented.

Looking Ahead
With a gripping true-crime storyline and powerhouse performances from Jason Clarke and Patricia Arquette, Hulu’s Murdaugh Murders series is poised to become a must-watch. Filming begins in 2025, and viewers can expect a deep dive into one of the most scandalous family sagas in recent history.
