This time, the story follows the wealthy Menendez brothers who are on trial for shooting their parents in Beverly Hills, claiming self-defense after years of abuse, while prosecutors argue that greed was the motive.

Cooper Koch was chosen to portray Erik, while Nicholas Alexander Chavez plays Lyle. Both have delivered strong performances and shared the screen with figures such as Javier Bardem, Molly Ringwald and Chloë Sevigny.
