The Beauty is headed to FX. The series is the latest from Ryan Murphy headed to the network.
According to Deadline, Evan Peters, Anthony Ramos, Jeremy Pope, and Ashton Kutcher have been cast in the series inspired by The Beauty comics by Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley.
The series is set in a world where an STD makes the infected beautiful. However, the hosts are eventually killed off in a government plot.
No other details about the FX series have been released, but the original comics have been described this way:
Modern society is obsessed with outward beauty. What if there was a way to guarantee you could become more and more beautiful every day? What if it was a sexually transmitted disease? In the world of The Beauty, physical perfection is attainable. The vast majority of the population has taken advantage of it, but Detectives Foster and Vaughn will soon discover it comes at a terrible price.
The 11-episode first season will start filming later this year, and the premiere date for The Beauty will be announced later.
