Hulu’s limited series Dopesick, centered on the opioid epidemic in America and the pharmaceutical companies behind it, made a splash on the morning of the Emmys nominations announcement when it picked up six noms, including for outstanding limited series and lead actor. For THR Presents, powered by Vision Media, creator Danny Strong, writer and executive producer Beth Macy and cast members Katelyn Dever and Peter Sarsgaard (all of whom are Emmy nominees this year) spoke about the production and reception of this gargantuan project.
Strong, a previous Emmy winner for writing and producing 2012’s Game Change, was approached to tackle this story of the opioid crisis by fellow producer John Goldwyn. “I started researching it — there have been a number of articles written on it, a big New Yorker profile,” he recalls. “Once I started dipping my toe in the water, it goes from,...

Dopesick, the Hulu drama series starring Michael Keaton, Kaitlyn Dever and Peter Sarsgaard, tells the story of the opioid crisis in the U.S. between 1996 and 2007.
Creator Danny Strong said during a panel discussion at Deadline’s Contenders Television: The Nominees event that there’s still a chance of justice against Richard Sackler and his family, owners of OxyContin producer Purdue Pharma.
Contenders TV: The Nominees — Deadline’s Complete Coverage
He said he hasn’t given up thinking that there will be justice as activists still are trying to get a U.S. attorney to indict the family for the crimes documented in the eight-part series.
“People haven’t given up,” he said. “I don’t want to call it retribution, but [if that happens], I would just say justice will have maybe finally happened. For some loved ones, they’ll be thrilled if that happens, but it’ll never truly be true justice without [their] family members.

Gold Derby can exclusively reveal the episodes selected by the seven nominees for Best Movie/Limited Supporting Actor as their 2022 Emmys episode submissions.
There are three nominees representing the Hulu limited series “Dopesick.” Michael Stuhlbarg, who was previously nominated in this category for “The Looming Tower” (2018), plays pharmaceutical executive Richard Sackler. He submitted to Emmy voters the fifth episode of the eight-episode series, “The Whistleblower,” in which Richard makes a play for power within Purdue Pharma, angling to become the company’s president while planning the release of a new 160mg dosage of OxyContin despite how addictive it is.
Rookie Emmy nominee Will Poulter plays drug sales representative Billy Cutler in “Dopesick” and submitted the seventh episode, “Black Box Warning,” in which Billy becomes disillusioned with Purdue Pharma after learning of a plan to use an Fda warning as a marketing tool to increase sales; he ends up stealing incriminating...

“We have to hammer on the abusers in every way possible.” This quote from Richard Sackler, the man widely considered to be the “godfather” of OxyContin, perfectly exemplifies how his company, Purdue Pharma, got away with addicting millions of people through lies and deception — by blaming the victims for Purdue’s crimes.
As the creator of the Hulu limited series Dopesick, I was shocked and outraged by the obscene criminality of Purdue Pharma, which was owned and managed by members of the Sackler family. The company’s “big lie” was to aggressively market an addictive narcotic while significantly understating the risk of addiction by using misleading studies, manipulated blood charts and deceptive slogans and by pushing “expert” testimony regarding OxyContin’s safety from “independent” doctors who were in actuality on Purdue’s payroll.
These actions that created the opioid crisis might be the greatest crime in U.

Anyone who has been following the news knows that the Sackler family faced little to no legal retribution when it came to holding them, and their company Purdue Pharma, culpable for America’s opioid crisis.
While the finale of Hulu’s limited series Dopesick made that fact abundantly clear Wednesday, the closing installment also emphasized the billions of dollars the OxyContin manufacturer has to pay in settlements.

One of the most revealing scenes in Dopesick Episode 6, which premiered Wednesday, is when DEA Deputy Director Bridget Meyer left a much-needed marriage counseling session with her husband to meet with the Fda about Purdue Pharma.
Bridget tried once again to get Fda officials to admit they had mistakenly listed OxyContin as less addictive than other opioids by bringing numerous articles about deaths the drug had caused and mounting public pressure to make it less obtainable.

The opioid crisis has ravaged many American communities, and small-town America, for sure, never saw it coming.
John Hoogenakker is playing Assistant U.S. Attorney Randy Ramseyer on Hulu's series, Dopesick, based on the book Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors and the Drug Company that Addicted America by Beth Macy.
Randy was instrumental in bringing the crisis to light and is one of the most sympathetic characters on the show. We had a chance to chat with John about being a part of such an essential piece of work.
John called from Western North Carolina, where he has moved his family and enjoys spending time with his kids while they're still of an age to find hanging with dad to be a cool pastime.
That also places him in an area that is still greatly affected by the opioid crisis, so it's no wonder that Beth's book so moves John.

Peter Sarsgaard has played real people in the past. The list includes journalist Chuck Lane in 2003’s Shattered Glass and Robert Kennedy in 2016’s Jackie. Despite this, Sarsgaard is always aware of the awkwardness of portraying non-fiction characters.
The actor is once again eschewing his comfort zone in Hulu’s limited series Dopesick, in which he plays former Ausa Rick Mountcastle. Just as the real Mountcastle did, his character spends years building a case against Purdue Pharma, the makers of OxyContin, alongside his fellow Assistant U.S. Attorney Randy Ramseyer (Castle Rock‘s John Hoogenakker).

This week on Hulu’s limited series Dopesick, some characters made progress… while others took two steps backward.
Bridget Meyer certainly evolved. Not only did the DEA agent figure out a way to spark a media war with Purdue Pharma in Episode 5, but she fought sexism among her all-male coworkers. Bridget had to pick her battles, though, so she agreed to let a white male coworker handle a press conference because he comes across as nicer than her.

There are many moving pieces in Hulu’s new limited series Dopesick. What makes it a compelling watch is the way the drama focuses on the residents of a small and fictional Appalachian town ravaged by opioid addiction.
Key among them are Dr. Samuel Finnix (Michael Keaton) and his patient Betsy Mallum (Kaitlyn Dever), whom viewers got to know in Wednesday’s premiere. Finnix is a trusted figure in his community, but the well-intentioned widower is also overwhelmed by all of the pain and injuries the myriad of local coal miners need him to treat. By the first installment’s end,...

“Dopesick” announces itself right off the bat. In a dark room, his face half cloaked in shadow and standing next to a throne-like chair he’ll eventually inherit, Richard Sackler (Michael Stuhlbarg) whispers his diabolical plan to a small group of powerful men. Soon, we’ll learn the squinting skeptics clad in bow ties and ascots are Richard’s relatives, all of whom “work” for the family pharmaceutical company, Purdue Pharma, and all of whom stand to profit immensely if his plan to “redefine the nature of pain” comes to fruition.
Knowing that “Dopesick” is based on a true story means also knowing that Richard’s proposal to end an “epidemic of suffering” means starting an actual epidemic of opioid addiction, but even viewers entering Hulu’s limited series with only a tertiary knowledge of our national health emergency will recognize the telltale signs of villainy afoot. The Sacklers are...
