TV Show Based on Gwyneth Paltrow Ski Collision Court Case in Production

A TV show based on the 2023 civil court case between Gwyneth Paltrow and retired doctor Terry Sanderson, resulting from a ski collision three years earlier at Deer Valley in Utah has been announced by Discovery+.
The civil case was brought by the retired optometrist against Paltrow following a decision that there was no criminal case to answer on the 2016 collision on the slopes. Sanderson sought $300,000 from the actress, alleging she causing him permanent traumatic brain injury. Paltrow counter-sued Sanderson for $1 plus legal costs, claiming he caused the accident. The court was played out in worldwide media in late March and early April earlier this year. Paltrow won.
The show is being made by production company Optomen, whose previous programmes include "Johnny vs Amber" and "Kim vs Kanye: The Divorce").
Clare Laycock, SVP Head of Content, Networks & Streaming at WBD UK & Ireland, said: "We're excited about the breadth of this latest slate of commissioned programmes, across discovery+ and linear, which span our viewers' most-loved genres."
