Modern society is obsessed with outward beauty. What if there was a way to guarantee you could become more and more beautiful every day? What if it was a sexually transmitted disease? In the world of ‘The Beauty,’ physical perfection is attainable. The vast majority of the population has taken advantage of it, but Detectives Foster and Vaughn will soon discover it comes at a terrible price.

All Ryan Murphy Shows Ranked Worst To Best

From smash-hit musical series Glee to American Horror Story to his Netflix shows, Ryan Murphy has created many impressive shows. What are the best?

The description forThe Beautyis intriguing, as the series will take on the beauty standards and the cost of intensely seeking said goals. The series will take actual society’s “obssess[ion] with outward beauty” and transmit it into an alternate universe wherein “physical perfection is attainable.” This is a concept that is tackled more often in the media lately, as evidenced by thewell-reviewed body horror filmThe Substance.The Beautywill take thematic elements from films like this and lay them out over a longform context.

The Beauty Could Reach Huge Success

The Beautyalso represents the continued collaboration between Peters andMurphy, who have worked together on numerous other projects. Specifically,The Beautywill be coming off ofDahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, a show which earnedPetersa Golden Globe and became Netflix’s third-most watched show of all time. I think that this very recent success ofMonsterwill likely propelThe Beautyto be one of the pair’s more successful shows that they have done, at least in terms of viewership.
