It hails from\u00a0Greenblatt and co-executive producer Jon Wu via The Green Room banner and writer\/executive producer Joe Hortua. Flanagan is attached as a non-writing executive producer.<\/p>\n<p>Greenblatt stated: \u201cI appreciate Lionsgate\u00a0and\u00a0Hulu for taking on the tragedy of Tim Piazza\u2019s death due to a careless hazing incident at Penn State\u2019s Beta Theta Pi fraternity in 2017. It resulted in\u00a0one of\u00a0the largest criminal indictments\u00a0against a fraternity and its members in\u00a0recent\u00a0U.S. history. While hazing is illegal, there continue to be similar incidents around the country each year, and we want this to be a cautionary tale. Tim\u2019s bereaved parents, Jim and Evelyn, are now crusaders for reform, and last year, the Timothy J. Piazza Anti-Hazing Law was passed. We all hope this will be drama with a purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jim and Evelyn Piazza commented: \u201cWe are grateful and fully supportive of Lionsgate and Hulu taking on this project related to our son\u2019s tragic and very preventable death.\u00a0Given the reckless and deplorable behavior of fraternity members and their advisors, the lack of oversight by the University and the National Fraternity and the ongoing criminal and civil proceedings that continue five plus years later, we feel this is a story that must be told to prevent similar incidents from happening to another young man (or woman) and their family.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Death at Penn State, a limited series from Lionsgate Television and executive producer Robert Greenblatt, is in development at Hulu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":290,"featured_media":17637,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[5215,593,5216],"class_list":["post-17636","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-death-at-penn-state","tag-lionsgate-television","tag-robert-greenblatt","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
