FX Releases Official Trailer for Ryan Murphy’s New Drama ‘Grotesquerie’

On Wednesday, FX released the official trailer for “Grotesquerie,” its latest horror drama series from Ryan Murphy. Lead actor Niecy Nash-Betts is featured prominently in the video in the role of Detective Lois Tryon, who’s trying to uncover the truth behind some horrific murders in a small town. The trailer is introduced by Travis Kelce, celebrated tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs and three-time Super Bowl champion, as well as Taylor Swift’s leading squeeze. Kelce will appear in the series in an as-yet unspecified role.

Joining Nash-Betts and Kelce are the following cast members: Primetime Emmy winner Courtney B. Vance (“The People v. O.J. Simpson”) as Marshall Tryon; Oscar nominee Lesley Manville (“Phantom Thread”) as Nurse Redd; Tony nominee Micaela Diamond (“Parade”) as Sister Megan; Daytime Emmy winner Nicholas Alexander Chavez (“General Hospital”) as Father Charlie, and Spirit nominee Raven Goodwin (“Lovely & Amazing”) as Merritt Tryon.

Here is the official logline for the series: “In Ryan Murphy’s 10-episode drama series ‘Grotesquerie’ for FX, a series of heinous crimes have unsettled a small community. Detective Lois Tryon 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, 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.”

“Grotesquerie” premieres September 25 with a pair of episodes on FX. Each episode will stream the following day on Hulu.
