Painkiller director and executive producer Pete Berg addresses the unfortunate timing between the opioid crisis show with Hulu's acclaimed Dopesick.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT With the two shows covering the same topic, Painkiller director and executive producer Pete Berg has addressed the coincidental timing between his show and Hulu's Dopesick. Like the latter miniseries, Painkiller takes a look at the opioid crisis in its early days, namely Purdue Pharma's ties to the drug epidemic.

“We were sort of moving at the same pace. Both shows were in development around the same time, which happens every once in a while and our business. They went first. I think we have a very different tone, and we can exist nicely with a really outstanding show. It’s a really complicated big issue that can support multiple content.”
