A captivating actor as effervescent on-screen as she was off, Murphy was a rising star whose movies helped define a generation. But in 2009, Murphy’s untimely passing ended her promising career, while the mysterious circumstances surrounding her death quickly became fodder for speculation and conspiracy theories.

Sensitive and nuanced, the docuseries explores the legacy of a unique talent.

Heather’s Review:

Although I learned a lot that I didn’t know about Brittany Murphy before her passing, I had recently heard many stories about the theories behind her death. I don’t think this particular docuseries covered it all, although they alluded to it early on in the show. There are only two episodes, so it’s a quick watch. Both of them kept me entertained and had me hoping for more.

I give What Happened, Brittany Murphy? on HBO Max 4 out of 5 stars.
