'The Girl From Plainville' first-look images reveal Elle Fanning's transformation into the role of Michelle Carter for the Hulu true-crime limited series.

In 2014, the county of Fairhaven, Massachusetts was shocked to hear about the death of an 18-year-old boy who committed suicide. As the reasons why started to mount up, an even more shocking slate of news and an infamous trial proposed a serious question: can someone be prompted to end their life through text messages? This is what Hulu’s limited series The Girl From Plainville is set to discuss.

Fully told in an Esquire article by Jesse Barron, the story revealed an unprecedented case that showcases how the judicial system is trying to catch up with modern times, in which social media and texting non-stop play a huge role in affecting our mental health. Carter reportedly encouraged Conrad to commit suicide multiple times until the very end of his life.

Aside from Fanning and Mosley, The Girl From Plainville’s cast also features Chloë Sevigny, Colton Ryan, Cara Buono, Kai Lennox, and Norbert Leo Butz. “The Girl From Plainville” is inspired by the true story of Michelle Carter’s unprecedented “texting-suicide” case. Based on the Esquire article of the same name by Jesse Barron, the limited series explores Carter’s relationship with Conrad Roy III and the events that led to his death and, later, her conviction of involuntary manslaughter.
