True crime fans will be delighted with this news. Dennis Quaid is set to helm the cast of the upcoming Paramount+ series, “happy face.’ This series, inspired by true events, delves into the dark narrative of a notorious serial killer and the profound impact on his family, especially his daughter.

happy face” is rooted in the telling true-life story of Melissa Moore, who discovered as a teenager that her father was the infamous serial killer named “happy face” for the smiley faces he drew on letters boasting of his crimes. This revelation rocked Moore’s life, causing her to change her name and keep her father’s identity a secret while he serves a life sentence in prison.
