Gwyneth Paltrow and Brooklyn Peltz Beckham’s respective legal battles captivated our attention, so Discovery ordered a pair of investigative documentaries.
Warner Bros. Discovery UK & Ireland announced on Wednesday, July 12, that they ordered Gwyneth vs Terry: The Ski Crash Trial and Peltz-Beckham vs The Wedding Planners for its Discovery+ streaming platform, per Deadline.
“We’re excited about the breadth of this latest slate of commissioned programs, across discovery+ and linear [television], which span our viewers’ most-loved genres from property, reality, and food to true crime and paranormal,” Clare Laycock, SVP Head of Content, Networks & Streaming at WBD UK & Ireland, told Deadline in a statement. “We are delighted to offer both new and returning favorites laden with high-profile talent.”
Gwyneth vs Terry will highlight the 2023 lawsuit between Paltrow, 50, and retired doctor Terry Sanderson, who alleged the actress intentionally injured him during a 2016 ski collision and sued her for $300,000 in damages. Paltrow denied his claims and filed a countersuit for $1. The trial began in March at the Park City District Court in Utah, where Paltrow’s courtroom style and testimony made headlines.
The Goop founder even laughed off the assumption that her $1 amount had been copied from her “good friend” Taylor Swift, who was awarded the same monetary prize in August 2017 after accusing DJ David Mueller of sexual assault for allegedly groping her back in 2013.
“It’s an actual dollar that I’m asking for. It’s symbolic because the damages would actually be more,” Paltrow said during her March 24 testimony.
Paltrow — who shares daughter Apple, 19, and son Moses, 17, with ex-husband Chris Martin — was ultimately found not liable by
