Elizabeth Olsen Stars as Accused Axe Murderer Candy Montgomery in HBO’s ‘Love and Death’ Trailer
Jordan Moreau After playing a diabolical Scarlet Witch in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” Elizabeth Olsen stars as Candy Montgomery, who was infamously accused of axe murder in 1980 and later acquitted, in “Love and Death.” HBO Max released the first trailer for the upcoming limited series on Thursday. The seven-episode series premieres on HBO Max on April 27 with its first three episodes. New episodes will release weekly through May 25. Created by David E. Kelley (“Big Little Lies,” “Nine Perfect Strangers,” “The Lincoln Lawyer”), “Love and Death” “tells the true story of Candy and Pat Montgomery and Betty and Allan Gore — two churchgoing couples enjoying their small-town Texas life… until an extramarital affair leads somebody to pick up an axe,” the logline says.
