Sex, Money, Murder: Release Date Revealed, Star-Studded Cast, Plot Teases — Everything You Need to Know
Sex, Money, Murder plunges into the bloody nexus of America’s strip club scene, unspooling real murders, mob control, obsession, and betrayal. Across eight hard-hitting episodes, the docuseries pairs exclusive interviews with relentless reporting to expose a shadow world few dare to enter.
Here we go: Hulu just dropped an eight-episode true-crime docuseries called 'Sex, Money, Murder' that pulls back the neon curtain on the strip club business and the very ugly crimes tied to it. It is not delicate. It is also hard to stop watching.
What this is
'Sex, Money, Murder' is a true-crime deep dive into murders connected to the strip club world across the U.S., from New York to Atlanta to Des Moines. The throughline is simple and bleak: when greed, lust, and ambition collide with cash-heavy nightlife, bad things happen. The series stitches together interviews with investigators, witnesses, families, and journalists (including investigative journalist Jonathan Green), then layers in reenactments and archival footage to map out who did what, why it spiraled, and how these clubs are run behind the glossy stage lights.
Where to watch
All eight episodes are streaming now on Hulu in the United States. The series premiered November 17, 2025, and Hulu released the whole thing at once.

Who shows up on camera
This is a documentary, so there is no lead actor. Instead you get the people who lived it: detectives and law enforcement who worked the cases, witnesses and families who were pulled into the fallout, and crime journalists and experts shaping the timeline. Jonathan Green’s reporting helps drive the narrative, and reenactment actors step in for key moments to put faces and movement to the stories.
Bottom line
If you are into true-crime with a focus on the business realities and the mess that follows the money, this is your next weekend binge. It is slick when it needs to be, grim when it has to be, and surprisingly granular about how power and profit can turn a stage into a crime scene.
