A three-part documentary series called the Death of the Pastor’s Wife about the events leading up to Mica’s sudden and mysterious death and the fight for answers that continues today is coming to Netflix.
Netflix announced that Death of the Pastor’s Wife, directed by Julia Willoughby Nason and Mike Gasparro, will premiere on August 26. The series is going to include never-before-seen footage and direct accounts from friends and family speaking out for the first time.
At first, Mica Miller’s death was ruled a suicide after her body was found at a North Carolina state park on April 27, 2024. However, after evidence surfaced that Mica, the wife of pastor John-Paul Miller, had claimed that she was the victim of stalking, the case drew national attention. One of the pieces of evidence was her telling police officers she was “afraid for her life” a month before her death.
Death of the Pastor’s Wife is executive produced by Tom Cappello, Alana Goldstein, and Keely Walker Muse for Crazy Legs Productions; Nason and Gasparro for The Cinemart; and Yotam Guendelman for Silvio Productions.
Nason and Gasparro said: “What stayed with us about Mica’s story was how hard she seemed to be fighting to be heard.” They added: “We felt it was important to look closely at what she was experiencing and give the people who loved her the space to tell the story of the woman they knew. We made this series to ask difficult questions, listen closely to Mica’s own voice, and make sure that what she was trying to say is not forgotten.”
Executive producer Alana Goldstein said: “Although we never met Mica, the time we spent with her family and friends allowed us to feel her warmth and heart as a human who endured unspeakable pain. Our goal at Crazy Legs is to tell a deeply personal portrait of Mica — honoring her voice, uncovering the realities of emotional abuse and coercive control, and remembering her for the light she shared with the world through her faith.”
Netflix released the trailer and teased for more updates before the August 26 release date.
