Michelle Carter’s story, which is being depicted in the Hulu series starring Elle Fanning, there’s no denying the influence and its star Lea Michele had on the teenager who was ultimately convicted of involuntary manslaughter for the 2014 death of boyfriend Conrad Roy (Colton Ryan). After a brief moment, in which Carter recites a popular monologue in the premiere, episode four (“Can’t Fight This Feeling”) takes Carter’s fascination even further with a dream sequence involving Fanning and Colton performing a cover of REO Speedwagon. While speaking with ET, Fanning and Colton as well as creators Liz Hannah and Patrick Macmanus break down that unexpected musical moment and why bringing Carter’s pop culture obsession to life on screen was so important to the series. About halfway through the episode, after the Assistant District Attorney in Massachusetts opened an investigation into Carter’s involvement in Roy’s death and she’s no longer allowed to use the internet or communicate with anyone involved in the case, a lonely Carter goes for a walk outside.
