Using firsthand accounts and interviews with Mica’s friends and family, the documentary will examine the events leading up to her sudden death and the questions that still remain unanswered today.
Death of the Pastor’s Wife is an upcoming Netflix Original co-directed and led by showrunner and executive producer Mike Gasparro. The three-part series is co-directed by Julia Willoughby.
Executive producers Tom Cappello, Alana Goldstein, Keely Walker Muse represent Crazy Legs Productions, Julia Willoughby Nason, Mike Gasparro for The Cinemart, and Yotam Guendelman for Silvio Productions.
Netflix has released a logline for the documentary:
“Death of the Pastor’s Wife is a three-part documentary series examining the life and death of Mica Miller, wife of John-Paul Miller, the pastor of her family’s church in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Featuring never-before-seen footage and firsthand accounts from friends and family speaking out for the first time, the series explores allegations of control and manipulation, the events leading up to Mica’s sudden and mysterious death, and the fight for answers that continues today.”
In an interview with Netflix, the series directors, Nason and Gasparro, had the following to say about Mica’s story:
“What stayed with us about Mica’s story was how hard she seemed to be fighting to be heard. 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.”
Death of the Pastor’s Wife will be released globally on August 26, 2026.
Netflix has released an official trailer for the documentary.
Alana Goldstein, one of the docuseries executive producers of Crazy Legs Production, shared with Netflix her thoughts on the series:
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.”
