The series, as reported by Daily Caller, will see McCarthy portraying Patsy Ramsey, the mother of the ill-fated child, while Owen will embody the character of John, the child's father. The production is slated to commence in Calgary, Canada, and will delve into the chilling story of the six-year-old pageant queen's disappearance and subsequent death.
