Say what you will about Ryan Murphy, but the creator is keeping fans fed! Fresh off Monster: The Ed Gein Story, All’s Fair, and 9-1-1: Nashville, and with a new season of Monster and American Horror Story on the way, he also has a brand-new series, The Beauty, coming our way — and the cast is, well, very beautiful.
The series is based on the comic book series of the same name from Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley, and according to the official synopsis, the story takes place in the world of high fashion and “turns dark when international supermodels begin dying in gruesome and mysterious ways. FBI Agents Cooper Madsen (Evan Peters) and Jordan Bennett (Rebecca Hall) are sent to Paris to uncover the truth. As they delve deeper into the case, they uncover a sexually transmitted virus that transforms ordinary people into visions of physical perfection, but with terrifying consequences. Their path leads them directly into the crosshairs of The Corporation (Ashton Kutcher), a shadowy tech billionaire who has secretly engineered a miracle drug dubbed ‘The Beauty,’ who will do anything to protect his trillion-dollar empire—including unleashing his lethal enforcer, The Assassin (Anthony Ramos). As the epidemic spreads, Jeremy (Jeremy Pope), a desperate outsider, is caught in the chaos, searching for purpose as the agents race across Paris, Venice, Rome, and New York to stop a threat that could alter the future of humanity.”
If the main cast sounds to die for, wait until you hear about the show’s stunning guest stars. Amelia Gray Hamlin, Ari Graynor, Bella Hadid, Ben Platt, Billy Eichner, Isabella Rossellini, Jaquel Spivey, Jessica Alexander, Jon Jon Briones, John Carroll Lynch, Julie Halston, Lux Pascal, Meghan Trainor, Nicola Peltz Beckham, Rob Yang, Peter Gallagher, and Vincent D’Onofrio are all set to appear in this steamy and scary global thriller.
The series is set to premiere on Wednesday, Jan. 21, 2026, on FX and Hulu. But in the meantime, keep scrolling for a peek at the first-look images...
