The 'Lost Girls', the narrative feature debut of Oscar-nominated filmmaker
Liz Garbus, has replaced its lead actor Sarah Paulson with Amy Ryan, reports The
Hollywood Reporter.
The series, a true-crime story, will now be with Netflix,
instead of Amazon Studios, as earlier conceived.
According to The Hollywood
Reporter, 'Lost Girls' follows the story of Mari Gilbert (essayed by Ryan), who
is searching for her missing daughter, trapped between law enforcement agents
and the convoluted mystery of unsolved murders of young female sex workers on
the South Shore barrier islands of Long Islands.
Interestingly, Ryan had
played a role along similar lines in the film 'Gone Baby Gone', which earned an
Academy Award nomination and several other recognitions.
The series is an
adaptation of Robert Kolker's novel of the same name. Michael Werwie is the
scriptwriter along with Anna Carey of Archer Gray and Kevin McCormick of Langley
Park Pictures as producers.
'What Happened, Miss Simone?', the documentary
which got Garbus her Emmy, was a Netflix original too.
