It's no surprise, then, that producer Ryan Murphy has decided to continue the brand as an anthology, with the second chapter detailing the crimes of brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez.

It's likely to be one of the biggest releases in September, but by no means the only major title to speak of – there's also more from Emily in Paris and Selling Sunset, as well as buzzy films His Three Daughters and Will & Harper.
