Kiera Knightley in Boston Strangler movie

Keira Knightley stars in BOSTON STRANGER, based on the true story of the reporter who broke the case of the Boston Stranger. Check out the new trailer and poster. A true-crime companion podcast from ABC Audio, Truth and Lies: The Boston Strangler also dropped a new trailer for the three-part narrative series that will accompany the movie.

Produced by Ridley Scott, BOSTON STRANGLER also stars Carrie Coon, Alessandro Nivola, Chris Cooper and David Dastmalchian. The film follows Loretta McLaughlin (Keira Knightley), a reporter for the Record-American newspaper, who becomes the first journalist to connect the Boston Strangler murders. As the mysterious killer claims more and more victims, Loretta attempts to continue her investigation alongside colleague and confidante Jean Cole (Carrie Coon), yet the duo finds themselves stymied by the rampant sexism of the era. Nevertheless, McLaughlin and Cole bravely pursue the story at great personal risk, putting their own lives on the line in their quest to uncover the truth.

BOSTON STRANGLER premieres on Hulu on March 17.
