Netflix is preparing for the release of their biographical crime series titled, “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story,” which is tentatively set to be release in September.
Following the success of ‘DAHMER – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story‘ in 2022, Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan are set to deliver two more seasons of the anthology series. The next installment, titled ‘MONSTERS: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story,’ has just wrapped production.
The upcoming season will center on the case of the Menendez brothers, who killed their wealthy parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home in 1989.
The Menendez Brothers were aged 21 and 18 when they committed the crime. They said they acted in self-defense, after years of physical and sexual abuse. However, the prosecution argued that their motive was greed and the desire to inherit their parents’ fortune.
The trials lasted for months and the brothers were charged for their actions. They are currently at the R J Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego, California.
Javier Bardem and Chloë Sevigny star as parents Jose and Kitty Menendez, with newcomers Nicholas Alexander Chavez and Cooper Koch portraying brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez. The series also stars Nathan Lane as Dominick Dunne, Ari Graynor as Leslie Abramson, Leslie Grossman as Judalon Smyth, Dallas Roberts as Dr. Jerome Oziel, Jason Butler Harner as Les Zoeller, Enrique Murciano as Carlos Baralt, Michael Gladis as Tim Rutten, Drew Powell as Detective Tom Linehan, Charlie Hall as Craig Cignarelli, Gil Ozeri as Dr. William Vicary, Jeff Perry as Peter Hoffman, Tessa Auberjonois as Dr. Laurel Oziel, Tanner Stine as Perry Berman, Larry Clarke as Brian Andersen, Jade Pettyjohn as Jamie Pisarcik, and Marlene Forte as Marta Cano.
Alexis Martin Woodall, Eric Kovtun, David McMillan, Louise Shore, and Carl Franklin serve as executive producers alongside Murphy and Brennan.
‘MONSTERS: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story’ will be exclusively available on Netflix tentatively in September 2o24. The series was filmed all over the Los Angeles area. Some of the locations include Sunset Studios, Warner Brothers, Biltmore, Directors Guild and Hancock Park to name a few.
