After the huge success of “Dahmer,” Netflix quickly gave Ryan Murphy two more seasons of his “Monster” anthology. The first of which is “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” coming to the streamer in just a couple of days. And now, we know what the third season is going to be and who’s going to star.

According to Netflix, Ryan Murphy’s Season 3 of “Monster” is going to focus on the renowned serial killer, Ed Gein. And who better to bring him to life than actor Charlie Hunnam? For those unfamiliar, Ed Gein is one of the most well-known serial killers to ever live. He’s also the source of inspiration for fictional characters such as Hannibal Lecter, Leatherface, and even Norman Bates.
Hunnam is probably best known for his work on the FX series, “Sons of Anarchy.” Since that show ended, he’s been in a number of series and films, with varying levels of success. Most recently, Hunnam appeared in Zack Snyder’s sci-fi epic, “Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire,” as well as the series “Shantaram.”
It’s unclear when we might see the new season of “Monster” arrive on Netflix. What we do know is that the series is going to begin production next month. That would lead us to believe that the new season will premiere sometime in 2025, which makes sense.
Again, the first season of “Monster,” which focused on Jeffrey Dahmer, broke all sorts of records for Netflix. So, the streaming service was very eager to get new seasons of the show up and running as quickly as possible.
“Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” debuts on Netflix on September 19.
