Dennis Quaid Becomes the 'Happy Face' Killer in Trailer for New Paramount+ True Crime Series
The first trailer for Paramount+'s Happy Face has Dennis Quaid playing the real-life Happy Face Killer and attempting to re-enter his daughter's life.
Dennis Quaid is going from playing a slimeball in The Substance to a downright monster in the new Paramount+ series, Happy Face. The first teaser trailer for the true-crime show was just released, putting the Day After Tomorrow and Reagan star into the shoes of the real-life Happy Face Killer, Keith Hunter Jesperson. Though the prolific murderer's name is the source of the title, the harrowing drama is instead inspired by the story of his daughter, Melissa G. Moore, who discovered his identity when she was 15 and has since changed her name and tried to move on while keeping their relation a secret. However, the footage teases how her father finds a way to force himself back into her life despite being locked up for life without parole.
