Monster is returning to Netflix for its second season. This time, the scripted drama series from Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan will focus on two subjects — the Menendez brothers and the murders of their parents.
Netflix gave the drama a two-season renewal as a result of the incredible popularity of its first season – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.
More was revealed about season two in a press release:
From Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan comes the next installment of their chilling ‘Monster’ anthology series: MONSTERS: THE LYLE AND ERIK MENENDEZ STORY.
Netflix and Ryan Murphy confirmed today that the next ‘Monster’ anthology will be titled Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story
Following the massive success of DAHMER – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Netflix ordered two additional installments of the record-breaking anthology series from Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan.
DAHMER, the record-breaking first iteration of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan’s ‘Monster’ anthology, reached 1 billion view hours in its first 60 days, making it only one of four series to achieve this milestone.
To date for DAHMER, Niecy Nash-Betts has won the Critics Choice Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series, the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Limited Series, and received both SAG and Golden Globe nominations for her performance; Evan Peters took home the Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Limited Series and received a SAG nomination for his portrayal; and Richard Jenkins and the series received Golden Globe nominations.
Note: Netflix also has exclusive access to Lyle and Erik Menendez for a forthcoming documentary feature.
Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story will arrive in 2024. Casting and other details will be announced later.
