In an interview with Digital Trends, JaredPScott discusses how his new Peacock docuseries, WhoKilledRobertWone?, sheds light on a real-life murder.
On August 2, 2006, Robert Wone, a married 32-year-old lawyer, decides to spend the night at his friends’ house in Washington D.C. Shortly thereafter, one of the friends calls 911 saying Wone has been stabbed to death. What happened during that 79-minute time frame in the house? Who murdered Wone?
Here you have Robert Wone, a 32-year-old prominent lawyer, a promising young man, [who] decides to spend the night with three friends. Seventy-nine minutes after arriving at his friends’ house, one of those friends calls 911 saying he’s been stabbed. Then from there, the EMTs arrive, and they describe this odd behavior. The detectives arrive, and one of the first things you hear is that these three guys are in white robes.
That’s a good question. I want to add one correction. It’s not that I’m not a fan. It’s just I’m not a die-hard. Again, I just like good stories, and I think this is a great story. I think that we told it well. We went to great lengths to find balance. We went to great lengths to try not to overspeculate. This case is [filled with] wild speculation.
I appreciate that, Jason. I’m glad that I was able to guess your next question. I’m going to do that right now, too. Luke Geissbuhler, who’s the [director of photography] on this , has done a lot of great stuff. There’s a certain integrity that we wanted to bring to this piece. Of course, we want it to be cinematic.
Because again, what happened in those 79 minutes in that house? At first, you feel like that might be constricting as a storyteller. It’s not like this happened in a cabin in the woods, and you can shoot these great Ozark kinds of landscapes. It’s a small row house in Washington D.C. We wanted to lean into that, and I think we were able to make that small aspect, that tight aspect, feel big and feel mysterious.
