Bill Pullman’s Criminal Intent

Bill Pullman may have been the only person in America this May who had not heard of Alex Murdaugh, the disgraced South Carolina lawyer who’d been found guilty of killing his wife and son two months prior. “I guess I have a little filter that makes me not want to pay attention to every heinous murder that happens,” the actor tells Julie Miller with a shrug. Now, though, Pullman is an expert—and the star of Lifetime’s new movie about the Murdaugh murders (titled, naturally, Murdaugh Murders: The Movie.)  Elsewhere in HWD, Anthony Breznican has scoop on the future of Star Wars; David Canfield chats with Matt Bomerabout Fellow Travelers and Maestro; Savannah Walshcelebrates Twilight on its 15th anniversary; and Leah Greenblatt gets to the bottom of why we love Saltburn-esque scammers.
