Ryan Murphy unveils new series Grotesquerie starring Lesley Manville
It already looks terrifying.
While our obsession with American Horror Story continues, Ryan Murphy is already onto his next project, unveiling his new series Grotesquerie.
As we'd expect, the new horror offering boasts an starry cast including Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance and Lesley Manville - and we already have a teaser to delve into after Murphy posted a clip on Instagram.
In the eerie teaser, we hear Nash-Betts's character say: “I don’t know when it started, I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s different now."
She adds: "There’s been a shift, like something’s opening up in the world — a kind of hole that descends into a nothingness. You say, ‘Well, hon, evil has always existed,’ that things are getting better, there’s never been a better time to be alive but it’s not getting better!
"Something’s happening around us, and nobody sees it but me.”
Murphy simply posted the teaser with the caption Grotesquerie - so it seems we'll have to wait for more details.
Nash-Betts recently won an Emmy for her role in the series Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story. Emmy winner Vance most recently starred in the film Heist 88, while Oscar nominee Manville recently took on the role of Princess Margaret in Netflix's The Crown.
