‘The Murder of JonBenét Ramsey’ Gets Netflix Release Date, First Look Photo
Netflix’s true-crime series follows the unsolved Boulder case and arrives with a first-look photo after Paramount+ passed on the project.
- Netflix will globally premiere the scripted limited series The Murder of JonBenét Ramsey on December 10, 2026, releasing a first-look image of Clive Owen and Melissa McCarthy as John Bennett Ramsey and Patsy Ramsey.
- Originally produced by 101 Studios, the project faced uncertainty after Paramount+ shelved it following a corporate takeover; Netflix acquired the completed series two and a half months ago.
- Showrunner Richard LaGravenese leads the production, which utilizes multiple perspectives to examine the 1996 Boulder, Colorado, murder; the series avoids a single narrative, aiming to unravel speculation surrounding six-year-old JonBenet Ramsey's death.
- Tying the premiere to the 30th anniversary of the crime, Netflix addresses a case that remains unsolved; despite nearly 30 years of investigation and more than 21,016 tips, letters, and emails, the killer has not been found.
- The project serves as a potential first installment of an anthology series examining infamous unsolved crimes, similar to Netflix's Monster franchise, reflecting the platform's broader true-crime dramatization trend.
