Peacock Releases Trailer and Announces Premiere Date for Gripping New Docuseries Anatomy of Lies
Peacock’s New Docuseries Anatomy of Lies Unravels the Shocking Web of Lies Told by Former Grey’s Anatomy Writer Elisabeth Finch
Gripping New Three-Part Docuseries Produced by Vanity Fair Studios and Dorothy St. Pictures Premieres Tuesday, October 15
Premiering October 15 on Peacock, Anatomy of Lies reveals the rise and fall of Grey’s Anatomy star writer Elisabeth Finch, whose jaw-dropping lies fooled Hollywood for years, and became fodder for many high-profile episodes of Grey’s. The story is told by some of her closest contacts, many speaking for the first time.
Originally reported in the Vanity Fair article “Scene Stealer,” the docuseries reveals how Finch, a master of manipulation, saved her best fiction for her own life story and exploited the empathy of those around her. Her final mark was trauma survivor Jennifer Beyer, who entrusted Finch with her deepest secrets. But as Beyer uncovers the web of lies that deceived Hollywood for years, she faces a daunting challenge: can she reclaim the narrative from a convincing storyteller who showed no signs of stopping?
Anatomy of Lies is directed and executive produced by Evgenia Peretz and David Schisgall. It is produced by Vanity Fair Studios and Dorothy St. Vicki Cooper, Melanie Archer and Julia Nottingham of Dorothy St. Pictures; Helen Estabrook, Sarah Amos, Claire Howorth and Samantha Smith of Vanity Fair Studios serve as the executive producers.
