Hulu's Pam & Tommy is bringing Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's relationship to the small screen.

The series, which stars Lily James and Sebastian Stan as the titular characters, follows the couple's whirlwind relationship in the '90s as well as their infamous leaked sex tape as detailed in an article published by Rolling Stone in 2014.

At the center of the story is also Rand Gauthier (played by Seth Rogen) and Uncle Miltie, aka Milton Ingley (played by Nick Offerman), who released and distributed the sex tape after Gauthier stole it from Anderson and Lee's home.

"The show looks at what happened and the real-life human consequences," James told TV Line. "Unfortunately, at the time, it coincided with the birth of the Internet. This was a completely unprecedented situation. The Internet's been so a part of my life, but for them to witness this thing suddenly, there was no control and there was nothing in place to support [Anderson] or protect her."

"She was let down by the system on so many levels, and I think people miss that," she added. "It's so easy to be drawn in by these big, salacious headlines, or a narrative that's created by a male-dominated world and media, and we forget what the real story is or the real people inside of it."

As the series details the scandal in its eight episodes, find out where the main players are today.

After stealing and leaking Anderson and Lee's sex tape, Gauthier faced legal and financial troubles as bootleg copies of the tape began to circulate. However, since the tape was initially stolen, Gauthier could not sue the bootleggers since he didn't own the copyright. Mob boss Louis "Butchie" Peraino, who had given Gauthier funding to distribute the sex tape, later forced him to pay back his debts by working for the mob.

According to the 2014 Rolling Stone feature about the "untold story" of the sex tape, Gauthier resides outside Santa Rosa, California, where he works as an electrician and "grows marijuana in his garage."
