"Manhunt" made its global debut on Apple TV+ in 2024.
Aside from "Manhunt," Beletsky is well known in the industry for her roles as writer/producer on the third season of the Emmy Award nominated FX series "Fargo." The series was met with critical praise and went on to receive multiple nominations during its third season including 16 Primetime Emmy Award nominations.
