"Making a Serial Killer About 'Why'" FirstLook Studio's Steele Hanrahan added: "This is a proven winner with True Crime audiences and our partnership with Radial is one we value as an example of extraordinary editorial, commercial and strategic collaboration."

Katie Carroll and Gugino are executive producers for Radial and Harhan is executive producer for FirstLook Studios alongside Graham Smiles and Rachel Boehring, series producers.

The multi-territorial deal was negotiated by Carroll, principal and business development director at Radial, and Lucy Middlebaugh, commercial director at FirstLook Studios. The pair have been partnering since their inception.

For Radial, this news is the third announcement this week at MIPCOM. Yesterday, it ordered new episodes of Forensic Files to US studio ITV and Content Partners, news that comes after it acquired the rights to Season 4 of World's Most Wicked Prisoners and resurrected A Haunting at New Dominion Pictures.
