Hulu's original mini-series "Pam and Tommy" will be premiering on February 2nd after being given the green light without Anderson's approval.


The series will star Lily James playing Anderson and Sebastian Stan playing Tommy Lee. Even though the show will be revisiting Anderson's own relationship, she said she:

"won't be watching," according to US Weekly.

The series will showcase

"the couples whirlwind romance, first documenting their wedding before the non-consensual distribution of their sex tape..." According to US Weekly.

Anderson also shared with a source from Entertainment Tonight that the series resurfaces "painful" memories of how "violated" she felt when the tape was stolen, released, and then exploited for profit. Sources say that neither Anderson nor Lee was involved with the creation of the show. An inside source also shared that:

"It is shocking that this series is allowed to happen without her approval," according to BuzzFeed News.

Since Anderson has spoken out about the miniseries, fans are threatening to boycott it in support of her. Fans have accused Hulu of "profiting off" women's trauma for entertainment purposes. Many compare it to Anderson and Lee's employee stealing the tape from them and selling it. A source discussed with BuzzFeed News

“the absolute weirdness in making a series about the non-consensual distribution of a sex tape without the subject's consent.”

Fans were originally excited and eager to watch the show but their opinions drastically shifted after finding out Anderson's feelings toward the show and shockingly that she had no part in it.

In May of 2021, a close friend of Anderson, Courtney Love, gave her opinion after seeing images of James and Stan in character. She shared in a now-deleted Facebook post that the show was:

"so f***ing outrageous" and caused Anderson "complex trauma," according to BuzzFeed News.
