In 1997, Reena Virk, a 14-year-old Indian girl living in Canada, vanished after attending a party. Her disappearance sparked a massive search and investigation, which ultimately led to the discovery of her partially-clothed body near Gorge Inlet eight days later. The brutal nature of her murder, which included torture and drowning, sent shockwaves through the community and made headlines across the country.
The upcoming web series ‘Under The Bridge: The Reena Virk Story’ delves into the tragic events surrounding Reena’s death. Based on Rebecca Godfrey’s novel, the series will explore the circumstances leading up to her disappearance, the investigation that followed, and the impact of her murder on her family and community.
The series will star Vritika Gupta as Reena Virk, Riley Keough as Rebecca Godfrey, and Lily Gladstone as Cam Bentland. It is expected to shed light on the many unanswered questions surrounding Reena’s case and provide a deeper understanding of the factors that contributed to her untimely death.
The web series will premiere on Disney+ Hotstar in India on May 8th. It will also be available on Hulu for US viewers, where it premiered on April 17th with two episodes. New episodes will be released weekly on both platforms.
