A Lifetime movie about the death of Gabby Petito is now in production.
The film, tentatively titled “The Gabby Petito Story,” has been rumored to be in the works for a while, but recent photos show production underway in Salt Lake City.
The film is based on Petito’s murder at the hands of boyfriend Brian Laundrie in Wyoming last year while on a well-documented road trip across the country.
The movie is being directed by Thora Birch, who will also play the role of Petito’s mother.
The Petito family has not publicly commented on the movie.
Attorney reveals Roberta Laundrie sent Brian an ‘odd’ letter Lifetime said the project is part of their “Stop Violence Against Women” campaign.
On Friday, a notebook reportedly belonging to Brian Laundrie, in which the author claims responsibility for killing Gabby Petito in September 2021, was publicly released by the Laundrie family attorney.
The notebook is a scrawled mix of a confession and suicide note in which the writer admits to taking Petito’s life.
“I ended her life, I thought it was merciful,” Laundrie reportedly wrote in the notebook. He claimed Petito was injured and in “extreme pain” before he killed her.
None of Laundrie’s claims in the notebook have been corroborated by investigators.
“Lifetime”
So it’ll be lurid and salacious all while staying within the confines of PG-13.
Starring Meredith Baxter Birney as Gabby, and Jason Alexander as Brian…
LOL!!!
I’d watch it…
Because we didn’t get enough the first time around 🤪
I don’t think I can watch that. The kid was cute as a button and the dirtbag murdered her. It’s just too sad to contemplate.
I wouldn’t really watch it, just having fun with my casting.
I’m, unfortunately, not surprised someone is trying to make money off of it.
The “man hater” channel.
It actually turned Meredith Baxter Birney into a lesbian.
Their ‘movies’ are just soppy fodder for the soap opera fan club.
No, no, Gabby will be played by a black lesbian and the dude by some transgender man, gotta do woke stuff.
Okay Gabby is played by Beetlejuice (Lori Lightfoot) and Brian by Elliot (Elaine) Page.
Better?…
We used to call Lifetime the Man Hater Network. So it figures.
LOL You nailed it. The channel for fat bitter divorced harpies, Hillary voters, and nasty man hating feminists. They sit each evening before the glowing screen, memorized as they clutch their sticky soup spoon and shlurp down ice cream straight from the carton.
She was so beautiful. I can’t help wondering how she would have aged. Crazy cat lady or some lucky man’s wife married happily 64 years. I think she finally realized that he was a big loser. Unfortunately, she tried to break it off where she had no protection from a OJ type of coward who couldn’t live without her.
🤣
