De acuerdo con Deadline, Ella Beatty (If I Had Legs I’d Kick You) será Lizzie Borden, la mujer que en 1892 fue juzgada (aunque finalmente absuelta) por asesinar a su padre y a su madrastra a golpe de hacha en Massachusetts, en la cuarta temporada de la serie antológica de Netflix Monstruos. Y no solo eso: también se unen a esta cuarta entrega Rebecca Hall (The Studio) como la madrastra de Borden y Vicky Krieps (El hilo invisible) como una sirvienta.

No es la primera vez que dicho caso se adapta a la pantalla. Christina Ricci ya se metió en el papel en la miniserie The Lizzie Borden Chronicles, y Chloë Sevigny lo hizo en la película Lizzie, acompañada por Kristen Stewart en el reparto.

The stories of serial killers have been told for decades, and they'll most likely continue to be shared for many more decades to come. Those individuals have scarred many, turning what is usually in horror movies into real-life, traumatic, gruesome events. From Jeffrey Dahmer to Ed Gein (in the upcoming Season 3), Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan have brought these stories to the forefront of television once again with their Netflix series Monster. The biographical crime drama anthology premiered on September 21, 2022, on the streamer. It became a trending topic for weeks, with many praising the performances of Evan Peters, who played Jeffrey Dahmer, and Niecy Nash, who played his neighbor in the first season.

For its fourth season, Ella Beatty will step into the killer role, portraying Lizzie Borden. In the anthology, a different serial killer is highlighted in each season. What started as a limited series transpired into something bigger,...

Netflix‘s true crime anthology series Monster is coming for a fourth season with America’s most notorious murder cases, the Lizzie Borden murders. She was accused of murdering both her father and stepmother with an axe. In 1892, she was a seemingly 32-year-old Sunday school teacher in Fall River, Massachusetts. Lizzy was innocent until her father and stepmother were found murdered in their home.

She became the prime suspect in the killing, which was committed with a hatchet. Although Lizzie was ultimately acquitted, public suspicion lingered for the rest of her life.

Now, Ryan Murphy‘s Monster: Season 4 will re-examine this chilling case. The Emmy-nominated crime series will focus on the events that led to the murders and the controversial trial that captivated the whole nation.

Announced on July 28, Monster season 4 will star actress Ella Beatty in the title role. According to Netflix Tudum and Deadline, the production is...

Even before Charlie Hunnam has a chance to terrorize Wisconsinites as Ed Gein, Ryan Murphy has announced the fourth outing of his highly controversial and binge-worthy Monster series for Netflix. For Season 4, the man behind American Horror Story, Feud, and Scream Queens has set his sights on one of history’s most notorious figures, Lizzie Borden, according to Variety.

Though it may not get as much credit as shows like "The Sopranos" or "Breaking Bad" as far as the golden age of television goes, "Sons of Anarchy" certainly had its part to play in this prolific era for small screen entertainment. Hailing from the mind of Kurt Sutter, of "The Shield" fame, the series premiered on FX in 2008, running for seven seasons and 92 episodes, growing its audience along the way in addition to being nominated for five Emmys.

The show centers on Jax Teller (Charlie Hunnam) who discovers a manifesto written by his late father and founder of the motorcycle club Samcro. This leads Jax to question just about everything in his life, laying the foundation for the seven seasons of TV that followed.

At the center of it all was the motorcycle club Samcro. That and all of the crime,...

Ryan Murphy, the mastermind behind shows like American Horror Story, Glee, and Nip/Tuck, has unveiled the release date for the latest installment of his Netflix true crime series, Monster. Season 3 of the series will be based on the true story of Ed Gein, the American serial killer who inspired countless villains in the crime genre, and Murphy recently revealed that the upcoming series will land on the streamer in October. Just in time for the spooky season.

Per the report by What's on Netflix, Murphy appeared on the podcast This is Gavin Newsom amid the celebrations of the recent Emmy nomination for his work in Season 2 of Monster, Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. The series is part of Murphy's TV offer via Netflix, and so far, the first two seasons have been very well-received. Season 1 told the story of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, while Season 2 told the story of the Menendez brothers.

We now know when Jessica Chastain will be logging on.

The Oscar winner’s eight-episode cyber thriller The Savant will premiere Friday, Sept. 26 on Apple TV+, with the first two episodes, TVLine has learned.

Ryan Murphy is ready to up the ante with Season 3 of Monsterand has a warning for those out there with weak stomachs — maybe this isn’t the show for you. In a recent interview on Gavin Newsom’s podcast, This is Gavin Newsom, the series creator told the California governor that the upcoming installment, which is set to see Charlie Hunnam portray serial killer Ed Gein, “is not for the squeamish.” That warning is certainly saying something considering the first season, during which Evan Peters appeared as the notorious Jeffrey Dahmer, not only included the killer’s atrocious crimes, but also pointed to the possibility that he may have given his neighbors food made from human body parts.

For those who may not be familiar with Gein’s story, the man who would become known as “The Butcher of Plainfield” was a Wisconsin native who murdered at least two women in the 1950s.

It's been almost one year since Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story premiered on Netflix as the second season of Ryan Murphy's hit true crime anthology series Monster. Finally, we have a better idea of when to look out for season 3 later this fall on Netflix!

While the second season vies for 11 Emmy Award nominations, including Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series and acting nods for Cooper Koch, Javier Bardem, and Chloë Sevigny in September, we won't be waiting much longer for the next installment. Ryan Murphy, co-creator and co-showrunner, has officially shared when Monster season 3 will premiere.

Ryan Murphy reveals Monster season 3 release month on Netflix

Speaking with California Governor Gavin Newsom on his This is Gavin Newsom podcast, Murphy shared that Monster season 3 will release on Netflix in October 2025. The upcoming season, which is rumored to be titled Monster: The Original Monster, will star Charlie Hunnam as Ed Gein,...

Michael B. Jordan’s reimagining of The Thomas Crown Affair is making headlines again, with Adria Arjona joining the cast. Arjona will star opposite Jordan as the film’s co-lead, replacing Taylor Russell, who Deadline says left the project on Friday due to creative differences.

Arjona will play an insurance investigator who suspects an adventurous banking executive of pulling off ambitious heists and develops a spark with him. The role takes inspiration from Faye Dunaway’s role in the Steve McQueen classic and Rene Russo’s role opposite Pierce Brosnan in the 1999 version.

As primary cast members, Kenneth Branagh, Lily Gladstone, Danai Gurira, Pilou Asbaek, and Aiysha Hart also star in Jordan’s The Thomas Crown Affair. In addition to starring in the film, Jordan is also directing it from a script by Drew Pearce. Jordan also produces through his Outlier Society banner alongside Elizabeth Raposo.

Like a snowball down a mountain, or a carnival balloon, production on The Thomas Crown Affair keeps spinning, and it already has its new female lead. Andor's Adria Arjona has joined the heist thriller remake alongside Michael B. Jordan. She comes in to replace Taylor Russell, who departed the production over creative issues. The Amazon MGM Studios remake is set to break into theaters on March 5, 2027.

Variety reports that as soon as Russell left the project, an immediate search began for a new lead, and found one in Arjona. She fills the shoes of Faye Dunaway and Rene Russo, who played Crown's foe-turned-lover in the 1968 Steve McQueen and 1999 Pierce Brosnan versions of the film; they both center around a man who becomes a high-stakes thief to alleviate his boredom with his wealthy lifestyle. Arjona joins an already star-studded cast that includes Kenneth Branagh (Murder on the Orient Express...

Teen dramas flourished in the early 2000s, especially on the network The WB with "Gilmore Girls," "Everwood," and "One Tree Hill." Writer, director, and actor Steve Antin was inspired by a stop at a New England gas station where four teenage girls were working as attendants, and one of them was the daughter of the station owner. "I just thought this was the sweetest thing I ever saw," Antin told the New York Daily News. This led him to create "Young Americans," where wholesome Americana collides with upper-crust privilege, set against a backdrop of Connecticut's sparkling lakes and a quaint town square.

"Young Americans" is about an elite summer program for future Ivy League students, and it was appropriately scheduled to air during the summer of 2000, filling the "Dawson's Creek" timeslot while the series was on hiatus. It was originally going to air in the fall of 1999 before getting tangled...

An official live-action Assassin’s Creed series is on the way thanks to the partnership between Ubisoft and Netflix. While the series hasn’t had the best time in live-action, we’re hoping that the series does the legendary franchise justice in all regards, although details about it are scarce, and it hasn’t been confirmed which game the series will adapt or if it’ll be an original story in the universe.

Talking about doing justice, one of the key aspects of making a live-action adaptation of a renowned video game IP comes with casting the best actors for the job. So, here are 10 perfect casting choices for the upcoming Assassin’s Creed series on Netflix for characters featured in various titles of the franchise that would be glorious to witness if they become a reality.

La antología de crímenes reales Monstruos ya tiene nuevo caso entre manos. De acuerdo con Nexus Point News, la cuarta temporada girará en torno al caso Lizzie Borden, la mujer que en 1892 fue juzgada (aunque finalmente absuelta) por asesinar a su padre y a su madrastra a golpe de hacha en Massachusetts.

El casting para encontrar a la actriz que dé vida a Lizzie ya está en marcha, aunque Netflix todavía no ha hecho ningún anuncio oficial. El rodaje, si todo va según lo previsto, comenzaría este otoño.

The world of film entertainment knows Zack Snyder for the director's unmatched ability to weave lengthy storylines. Oftentimes, audiences don't get to see the entirety of the work, but with his Netflix sci-fi franchise, Rebel Moon, they get to see quite a lot. Since stepping aside from the DC Universe, the sci-fi franchise has become the director's most popular and profitable. The first film, Rebel Moon: Part One — A Child of Fire, was released in December 2023, and was followed a few months later in 2024 by the sequel, Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver. The Rebel Moon films follow a human colony on the outskirts of the universe that finds itself the target of a much larger enemy. To resist and fight subjugation, they rely on a small band of rebels, with one being a famed officer with the tyrannical ruling force.

The sci-fi franchise is due a third installment, but...

Despite seemingly wanting to create his own Star Wars and build an ever-growing franchise brimming with sequels and spin-offs, it’s been pretty quiet when it comes to Zack Snyder and the future of the Netflix action sci-fi epic series, Rebel Moon. Until now. The divisive director has now finally teased the future of the equally divisive franchise while revealing the first look at the upcoming Rebel Moon video game tie-in, Blood Line (for which you can check out the new trailer below).

Speaking with Variety, Snyder at last answered the question that fans of the filmmaker have been asking for months: will Rebel Moon get more sequels? Citing “uptown problems,” the director revealed that, while he’s busy right now with an action thriller for Netflix, he has “tons of stories in mind” when it comes what’s next for Rebel Moon.

“I got sidetracked into this — not sidetracked,...

Rebel Moon has quickly become one of Zack Snyder’s most popular and profitable sci-fi franchises after leaving the DC universe behind, but it could be a while before audiences get to see the next installment. The first two movies were released in 2023 and 2024, respectively, and quickly became some of Netflix’s most frequently watched blockbusters on the platform.

The Rebel Moon cast includes names such as Sofia Boutella, Ed Skrein, Charlie Hunnam, and Charlotte Maggi, and follows a human colony on the outskirts of the universe that finds itself targeted by a much larger enemy and forced to seek help from the neighboring planets. Despite mixed reviews for Rebel Moon, the film was received very warmly by Zack Snyder’s existing fan base.

However, Snyder has recently revealed that Rebel Moon isn’t currently his priority. Speaking with Variety, the director has confirmed that he’s currently working on...

It seems like that the craze of true crime is nowhere near over and it is incredibly evident by the massive success of Netflix’s true crime anthology series Monsters, and it is because of this success, the streaming giant has decided to renew the true crime drama series for a fourth before its Season 3 premiere in 2025.

With Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan returning as head writers and Max Winkler returning to direct, the upcoming Season 4 about The Lizzie Borden case is set to begin principal photography in Los Angeles in September this year.

Until now, Monsters has tackled two popular true crime stories, including the disturbing case of serial killer and sex offender Jeffrey Dahmer and the equally disturbing story of the Menendez brothers, who killed their parents in their own home, but the whole truth is even more stomach-turning.

The crime drama anthology series Monster on Netflix has been a success from the very beginning when the story first focused on Jeffrey Dahmer. Then season 2 shifted the tale to the Menendez Brothers, and viewers continued to tune in. It's become one of the most viewed shows for the streamer. We've got Monster season 3 to look forward to this year, and apparently the show already has more coming our way.

According to reports circulating around, the Netflix series, created by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, has reportedly been renewed for Monster season 4, and it's going to focus on a female killer for the first time. Netflix has not confirmed the renewal news as of this writing. However, Variety reports that casting the lead role is currently underway and production is looking at starting to film in the fall.

The third season, which is expected to premiere sometime in 2025, is centered around serial killer Ed Gein,...

Ryan Murphy is ready to take his true-crime series, Monsters, in a new direction for its fourth season. After telling the chilling tales of Jeffrey Dahmer and the Menendez brothers in the first two seasons, and with the upcoming third season focusing on serial killer Ed Gein, Season 4 will shine a spotlight on one of history’s most infamous murder mysteries: Lizzie Borden.

According to Variety, filming is expected to start this fall, though Netflix hasn’t officially confirmed the renewal yet. Fans are still eagerly waiting for any news about Season 3, which stars Sons of Anarchy alum Charlie Hunnam as Gein, also known as The Butcher of Plainfield.

Lizzie Borden’s story has become a part of popular culture, inspiring everything from creepy nursery rhymes to movies. If you want to dive into the dark history, you can even stay overnight at the bed and breakfast that used to...

Ryan Murphy isn’t slowing down anytime soon. The creator behind Monster — Netflix’s hit true crime series, has locked in the subject of Season 4, and it’s going to shake things up in a big way. According to Variety, the next chapter will tell the story of Lizzie Borden, a woman accused of murdering her father and stepmother with an axe in 1892. But unlike the men featured in the show so far, Borden was found not guilty.

The first season of Monster shocked audiences with the horrifying case of Jeffrey Dahmer, with Evan Peters playing the infamous serial killer. Then, Season 2 focused on the Menendez brothers, who were convicted of killing their wealthy parents. Now, fans are still waiting for Season 3, which will center on Ed Gein, also known as The Butcher of Plainfield. He’s the Wisconsin killer whose gruesome crimes inspired films like Psycho and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Ryan Murphy and Netflix are in the process of developing a fourth installment of “Monster” that will follow Lizzie Borden, according to media reports.

The new season of the true crime anthology series will turn its attention to Borden, a woman who was tried and acquitted of the axe murders of her mother and father in 1892, though no one else was ever charged in the murders.

While “Monster” remains without a Season 4 renewal, the show is aiming for a potential shoot in the fall, with casting currently underway, per reports. Netflix declined to comment on this story.

The news comes ahead of the premiere of “Monster” Season 3, which centers on notorious 1950s grave robber, murderer and suspected serial killer Ed Gein, who served as inspiration for Norman Bates, the central character in Hitchcock’s classic 1960 film “Psycho.”

Charlie Hunnam stars as Gein, while Laurie Metcalf plays Gein’s mother Augusta,...

The movie is being released in the UK on July 11, but it does not yet have a US release date.

Johnny just opened up about being replaced in the Fantastic Beasts movie franchise.

Ryan Murphy has an axe to grind with Netflix. The streamer has reportedly ordered a fourth season of Murphy’s Monster anthology series, this time centered around infamous (alleged) axe murderer Lizzie Borden.

The historical figure was tried and acquitted for the murders of her father and stepmother in 1892, at which point she was ostracized by her Massachusetts community. Borden story was previously adapted into the Lifetime limited series The Lizzie Borden Chronicles, starring Christina Ricci in the title role.

The Ryan Murphy anthology series Monsterhas reportedly found its new subject for season 4. Co-created by Murphy and Ian Brennan, each season of the series focuses on a different murderer. Season 1 was titled Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, with season 2 as Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. Both seasons that have been released have been met with controversy.

Now, Variety is reporting that Monster season 4 will center on Lizzie Borden. At the time of writing, season 4 has not been officially renewed, with representatives for Netflix and Murphy declining to comment to Variety. The season will reportedly begin filming in the fall with no release window or casting announced.

What This Means For Monster Season 4 The Season Will Go Further Back In Time

Monster season 3 will go back before the events of Jeffrey Dahmer and the Menendez Brothers. The upcoming installment will star Charlie Hunnam as the infamous killer Ed Gein.

Ahead of the premiere of Monster Season 3, Netflix is already prepping a fourth installment of the true-crime franchise from creators/executive producers Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, sources confirm to Deadline. It will tell the story of Lizzie Borden, who was tried and acquitted of the 1892 axe murders of her father and stepmother in Fall River, Massachusetts.

Casting for the lead role is currently underway, with the new season eying a fall start of production, sources said. Reps for Netflix declined comment.

The Borden murders and trial received extensive nationwide publicity in the U.S. and have remained part of American popular culture in the decades since. Lizzie Borden has been depicted in numerous film, television and theater adaptations, most recently in Lifetime’s The Lizzie Borden Chronicles starring Christina Ricci, and the 2018 feature film Lizzie starring Chloë Sevigny and Kristen Stewart.

That was also the case with the second Monster installment,...

Ryan Murphy has found his latest muse for what will become the fourth season of his dramatized true-crime series, Monster, but, this time, he’s going a different route. In the first two seasons, he told the stories of Jeffrey Dahmer and Lyle and Erik Menendez, respectively, while the upcoming third installment will follow the life and crimes committed by Ed Gein. But, Season 4 is set to put its focus on Lizzie Borden, who, unlike the men she’s now forced to keep company with, was acquitted of the brutal murders of her father and stepmother in 1892. According to Variety, the team is on track to pick up cameras and get to work in the fall, but Netflix has yet to announce the title’s renewal, so we’ll need to wait for specifics.

“Monster” Season 3 has yet to set a premiere date, but Season 4 of the hit Netflix anthology series is already in the works.

Variety has learned from sources that a fourth season focused on the Lizzie Borden case is currently prepping for a potential fall shoot, though no official Season 4 renewal has been announced at this time.

Reps for Netflix and Murphy declined to comment.

Borden lived in Massachusetts in the late 1800s. In 1892, she was accused of murdering both her father and her stepmother with an axe at their shared home. Borden was eventually acquitted of the crimes, but the brutal nature of the murders attracted nationwide attention and contributed to Borden’s place in popular culture.

The case has been the subject of numerous adaptations across a wide variety of media. Recent examples include “The Lizzie Borden Chronicles” TV series starring Christina Ricci and the film “Lizzie” starring Chloë Sevigny and Kristen Stewart.

Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan's Monster Season 3 has yet to land on Netflix, but we're already learning what we can expect from the fourth season of the popular anthology series. According to Nexus Point News, production for Monster Season 4 is set to begin this Fall, with that installment reportedly focusing on the infamous Lizzie Borden murders.

The Lizzie Borden murders refer to the infamous axe slayings of Andrew and Abby Borden that occurred in 1982 in Fall River, Massachusetts. Andrew was Lizzie's father, and was found brutally murdered in the downstairs of their home, while his wife, and Lizzie's stepmother, Abby, was found upstairs. Lizzie became the main suspect and was tried for the homicides, but was acquitted of the crimes by a jury. Though she was found not guilty, many thought she was responsible for the murders, on account of her reportedly attempting to purchase poison the day before...

An update has been revealed for the future of Ryan Murphy's Monster on Netflix. The news comes ahead of the arrival of the third season, which will feature Charlie Hunnam.

According to a new report by Nexus Point News, Monster Season 4 is already in early development with plans to start filming in Los Angeles this fall. The fourth season will reportedly adapt the story of the Lizzie Borden murders, focusing on Borden, her father, stepmother, and housekeeper. No one has yet been cast in these roles. Showrunner and executive producer Ian Brennan is set to write the season alongside Murphy.

Lizzie Borden infamously went on trial for the killings of her father and stepmother in 1892; the couple had been slaughtered with an axe. She was ultimately acquitted, but became forever known for the incident. The story of Borden has endured through pop culture, having been retold through film, TV,...

Netflix – July 1

As we barrel towards the release of Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest provocation “One Battle After Another,” why not take a moment to revisit his last movie,...

This July, Netflix is starting the fireworks early. Pacific Rim, Guillermo del Toro's 2013 monsters vs. robots blockbuster, is coming to the streaming service. Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, and Rinko Kikuchi star in the science fiction extravaganza, which grossed over $400 million Usd from the global box office. Pacific Rim will be available to stream on Netflix starting on July 1. It joins Pacific Rim: The Black, a Netflix-original animated series that is also available to watch on the streamer.

Pacific Rim came about in the wake of another project collapsing: del Toro's long-dreamed-of adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness. The film was penned by del Toro and Travis Beacham, and was conceptualized as a loving homage to mecha anime and kaiju movies. The film, which bore a $190 million budget, was filmed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada; it was del Toro's first film produced there, and it has subsequently become his home base.

You might be surprised by some of the roles that Charlie Hunnam came very close to booking!

The 45-year-old actor has become a fan-favorite actor in Hollywood since making his debut in the ’90s. His popularity exploded with Sons of Anarchy in 2008. Since then, he’s starred in a variety of movies, the most recent being 2023′s Rebel Moon.

Like any actor, there have been some projects that Charlie auditioned for, which ultimately did not work out.

Over the years he’s opened up about six projects that he could have appeared in. Some of them he was offered and had to turn down. Others he did not book. The list includes two popular superheroes and roles in several other top-tier franchises!

Teller stars alongside Anya Taylor-Joy in The Gorge, a sci-fi monster film following two operatives who are stationed at towers on opposite sides of a dangerous gorge.
