New Monsters Season Premieres with Menendez Story
The entertainment world was shaken this morning with exciting news.

This season will dive deep into the infamous Menendez case, which captivated the nation in the early ’90s.
A Dark Tale of Family and Betrayal
The series will unravel the chilling narrative of the Menendez brothers, portrayed by Nicholas Alexander Chavez and Cooper Koch. In 1989, these two siblings shocked the world when they brutally murdered their parents, played by Javier Bardem and Chloë Sevigny, in their Beverly Hills mansion.
