Ryan Murphy's Monster anthology series has picked the Menéndez brothers as the subject for the next installment.
Netflix has unveiled which killer, or killers, Ryan Murphy will cover with Season 2 of his smash hit anthology series Monster. After topping the streamer's charts by tackling the story of Jeffrey Dahmer and his victims, he'll turn to a pair of brothers for Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menéndez Story. This will mark the first of two new installments to the true crime anthology which Netflix ordered back in November.
The case of Lyle and Erik Menéndez became a media sensation back in 1993 when Court TV aired their murder trial. In 1989, the brothers brutally shot and killed their parents in their home, initially escaping suspicion from the police by claiming they had stopped back home after a night out.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Murphy's series won't be the first time the Menéndez brothers' case has made it back to television. In the years following the case, a number of documentaries and special presentations examining the case and the lives of the brothers in prison were released. CBS and Lifetime have also aired dramatic adaptations of the case.
Murphy will re-team with his Dahmer partner Ian Brennan for this new case, and they'll get some help from Netflix which currently has access to the brothers for an upcoming documentary feature. They'll have to go a long way to beat the overwhelming success of their last series, however. Dahmer lives in rarefied air for a Netflix property, becoming one of only four series on the platform to crack 1 billion hours viewed within 60 days.
Stay tuned here at Collider for more on Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menéndez Story as work continues. Check out the announcement video below.
