Travis Kelce joins all-new horror show from American Horror Story boss

Kelce confirmed the news via Instagram, where he posted a story featuring Nash-Betts.

"Stepping into new territory with Niecy," he said.

Grotesquerie marks Kelce's first major acting role, following an appearance in Moonbase 8 and hosting his own Saturday Night Live episode.

Kelce does have a background in an unscripted TV, however, having fronted dating series Catching Kelce in 2016. He is also set to host upcoming game show Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? for Prime Video.

As well as acting, the footballer co-hosts sports podcast New Heights alongside his brother Jason. More recently, he has forayed into producing with My Dear Friend Zoe.

Much like Murphy's other projects, including American Horror Story, Grotesquerie is expected to blend horror and drama, though few details have been shared beyond that.

Murphy did post an eerie clip on Instagram when the series was first announced, confirming the cast and featuring Nash-Bett's voice.

"I don’t know when it started, I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s different now," she says, before adding: "Something’s happening around us, and nobody sees it but me."

Though it's unclear what exactly the character might be referring to, we're certain it won't stay unseen for long.
