On the show, Lacey's mom Mel (Chloë Sevigny) is a fictionalized version of Aleah's mother, Amy Pinegar. It's true that Aleah Woodmansee was the only one who knew that Gypsy Rose Blanchard had a secret Facebook account. Gypsy used her Facebook alias "Emma Rose" to message boys.

As of February 18, 2022, The Act has not been cancelled or renewed for a second season.
The murder of Dee Dee Blanchard is the true story The Act is based on. In June 2015, when Dee Dee was found stabbed to death inside her home, Gypsy was the most unlikely suspect.
Joey King plays Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who was victim to her mother's abuse. According to Gypsy, the abuse she suffered was both psychological and physical. In HBO's documentary, clinical psychologist Dr. Marc Feldman compared Gypsy's situation to that of a hostage.Mar 21, 2019

According to IMDb, the Hulu's Gypsy Rose story on The Act will have eight episodes.

Gypsy Rose, Blanchard family life in 2019 Her son, Dylan, is working for an energy company at a facility in Baton Rouge, two hours from the family home. Farther west, her daughter, Mia Blanchard, recently began her first year of study toward a neo-natal nursing program at University of Louisiana at Lafayette.Aug 29, 2019
"It is possible that Gypsy Rose presents with puberphonia (high-pitched voice after birth), a class of psychogenic voice disorders," says Jayne Latz, an executive communication coach and president and founder of Corporate Speech Solutions.May 2, 2019
Gypsy Rose is serving a 10-year prison sentence for second-degree murder (Godejohn got life in prison). It appears that Woodmansee is getting married. But she's still in touch with her old friend. Woodmansee was optimistic about Gypsy Rose's disposition after visiting her in prison.Mar 20, 2019
And in March, Hulu premiered The Act, an eight-part dramatic series based on the events leading up to and including Dee Dee’s murder, sourced from BuzzFeed reporter Michelle Dean’s 2016 investigative feature.
The real Dee Dee certainly retained a noticeable Louisiana drawl even after moving Gypsy and herself from their home state to Springfield, Missouri, following Hurricane Katrina — you can judge for yourself if it approximates Arquette’s affectation.
As for Dee Dee’s own mother, Emma Lois Pitre: She did pass away in 1997 as depicted.
Aleah Woodmanseee (a.k.a. “Lacey”) (Played by AnnaSophia Robb) Though her name has been changed to Lacey, it’s apparent that Gypsy’s across-the-street neighbor and friend in The Act is a stand-in for real-life neighbor and friend Aleah Woodmansee. (Just as Chloë Sevigny’s character, Mel, is doubtless a doppelgänger for Aleah’s mother, Amy Pinegar.)
The agreed-upon crown jewel of the Ace Attorney series, Trials and Tribulations allowed players to act as three different attorneys throughout the game while also bringing back important characters that make sense in the plot, rather than “just because." If being able to play as Mia Fey wasn't enough to earn first place on this list, then Phoenix Wright's college backstory most certainly is.

This ranks lower on the list due to its being a crossover, containing Professor Layton-style puzzles and therefore less actual Ace Attorney gameplay. The only main series characters that make an appearance Phoenix and Maya (and Edgeworth, briefly.) Nevertheless, this game is a worthy tribute to both series, with wonderfully-crafted 3D models and excellent music throughout.
With many fans expecting a sequel to Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney (and many fans disliking the new character), Capcom took a very different route. The first main series game on the 3DS, Dual Destinies arguably has one of the most fantastic soundtracks for a 3DS game, with renowned composer Noriyuki Iwadare at his best.
A welcome addition to the series, Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth is the first full game to feature Miles Edgeworth as a protagonist, a complex character (and fan-favourite). Having been playable for a short period in Ace Attorney: Trials & Tribulations, it was almost inevitable that Edgeworth would receive his own series of games. The prosecutor's inner thought process is a delight to watch.
Another hidden gem of the Ace Attorney series, many have played Ace Attorney Investigations 2 through the outstanding fan translation available online. Not only is this another Japanese-exclusive game in the series, but it also stands out as another sequel better than the original.
Justice For All is a worthy sequel to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, though it excels in different ways than its predecessor. The intrigue of Edgeworth's disappearance combined with the introduction of a new Von Karma creates a curiosity that can only be sated by pouring over every word of the game. Akemi Kimura does a phenomenal job composing music for every mood and scenario, leaving a lasting impression for weeks afterward.
