FX has set the premiere date for Ryan Murphy‘s new horror drama series “Grotesquerie.”
via: Deadline
The 10-episode first season will launch Wednesday, September 25 at 10 p.m. ET/PT and stream the next day on Hulu. It will be coming soon to Disney+ internationally.
Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance, Lesley Manville, Micaela Diamond, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, Raven Goodwin and Travis Kelce star in Grotesquerie, which revolves around a series of heinous crimes that have unsettled a small community. Detective Lois Tryon (Nash-Betts) feels these crimes are eerily personal, as if someone—or something—is taunting her. At home, Lois grapples with a strained relationship with her daughter, a husband in long-term hospital care and her own inner demons. With no leads and unsure of where to turn, she accepts the help of Sister Megan (Diamond) a nun and journalist with the Catholic Guardian. Sister Megan, with her own difficult past, has seen the worst of humanity, yet she still believes in its capacity for good. Lois, on the other hand, fears the world is succumbing to evil. As Lois and Sister Megan string together clues, they find themselves ensnared in a sinister web that only seems to raise more questions than answers.
Vance portrays Marshall Tyron. Manville is Nurse Redd, Chavez plays Father Charlie and Goodwin is Merritt Tryon. Kelce’s character has not been revealed.
Written and created by Murphy, Jon Robin Baitz and Joe Baken, Grotesquerie is directed by Max Winkler, Murphy, Alexis Martin Woodall and Elegance Bratton. The show is executive produced by Murphy, Woodall, Baitz, Baken, Winkler, Nash-Betts, Vance, Peter Liguori, Nissa Diederich, Eric Kovtun and Scott Robertson. It is produced by 20th Television.
With this premiere date, Murphy will have five shows on the air this fall. In addition to “Grotesquerie,” he also has both “9-1-1” and “Doctor Odyssey” at ABC (both launching on Sept. 26), “9-1-1: Lone Star” at Fox (Sept. 23), and “American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez” at FX (Sept. 17).
Fingers crossed this show will be far more watchable than American Horror Story.
