Based on the Breakout True Crime Podcast, Series Hails from Universal Cable Productions, in association with Los Angeles Times Studios and Atlas Entertainment

Los Angeles, CA – July 11, 2018 – Julia Garner (“Ozark”) and Juno Temple (“Vinyl,” “Wonder Wheel,” “Black Mass”) have joined the cast of Bravo Media’s “Dirty John” as the daughters of Debra Newell (Connie Britton), who are both skeptical about their mother’s relationship with John Meehan (Eric Bana). Joining the previously announced Jean Smart who will play Debra’s mother Arlane, Garner will star as Terra Newell, while Temple will star as Veronica Newell. The scripted anthology series, based on the articles and breakout true crime podcast of the same name from Los Angeles Times reporter Christopher Goffard, tells the true story of how Debra’s romance with the charismatic John Meehan spiraled into secrets, denial and manipulation.

The series is produced by Universal Cable Productions (UCP), in association with Los Angeles Times Studios and Atlas Entertainment, and will be executive produced and written by Alexandra Cunningham (“Chance,” “Desperate Housewives”). Richard Suckle and Charles Roven will serve as executive producers for Atlas Entertainment; Mark Herzog, Christopher G. Cowen and Chris Argentieri will serve as executive producers for Los Angeles Times Studios; Britton and Bana will also serve as executive producers.

Garner is a talented dynamic young actress who recently gave a breakout performance that received critical praise as the scrappy and conniving “Ruth Langmore” opposite Jason Bateman and Laura Linney in Netflix’s “Ozark,” which will return for a second season in August. This fall, Garner will also co-star in the Netflix series “Maniac” opposite Emma Stone, Justin Theroux and Jonah Hill. The series is written and directed by Cary Fukunaga. In 2015, Garner received critical recognition for her performance as a pregnant teenager in Paul Weitz’s “Grandma,” which she starred in opposite Lily Tomlin. Other film credits include memorable performances in “We Are What We Are,” “Electrick Children” and “Martha Marcy May Marlene. On the small screen, she has been praised for her work on FX’s “The Americans,” and was recently seen appearing in HBO’s “GIRLS” and in Netflix’s “The Get Down.” She was also recently seen in The Paramount Network’s six-part event series “WACO” opposite Michael Shannon and Taylor Kitsch.
