FX reveals first look at the Ryan Murphy show, The Beauty, set in the dark world of fashion
FX's The Beauty is set in the world of high fashion. FBI agents Cooper Madsen, played by Evan Peters, and Jordan Bennett, played by Rebecca Hall, are assigned a case in the world of high fashion where international supermodels are found dead, which has been brought about in mysterious and especially gruesome ways. Agents Madsen and Bennett are sent to Paris to uncover the truth behind these murders in the fashion world.
However, what they found when they actually started investigating the case was beyond their wildest imaginations. The investigation finds Agents Madsen and Bennett uncovering a sexually transmitted virus. The effects of this virus are, however, quite out of the ordinary. People affected by this virus find themselves transformed into the epitome of perfection when it comes to physical beauty. One would think this was the dream situation. However, with physical beauty comes some very terrifying consequences.
Delving deeper into the case, Agents Madsen and Bennett are led to a shady tech billionaire called The Corporation, played by Ashton Kutcher. It turns out, 'The Corporation' has engineered a miracle drug, named The Beauty. As shady tech billionaires do, The Corporation will take any and all measures to ensure the company's longevity. These measures even go as far as unleashing his personal lethal enforcer, The Assassin, played by Anthony Ramos.
In the midst of this seemingly perfect yet disastrous virus, Jeremy, played by Jeremy Pope, finds himself in the midst of the dark reality of the fashion world and the lines that are crossed for this idea of physical perfection.
The guest appearances list is longer and star-studded than ever, with faces like Bella Hadid, Amelia Gray Hamlin, Meghan Trainor, Vincent D'Onofrio, Ben Platt, Ari Graynor, Isabella Rossellini, Billy Eichner, Julie Halston, Jessica Alexander, Lux Pascal, Nicola Peltz Beckham, and Peter Gallagher set to join.
The Beauty will be premiering with the first three episodes on January 21, which will be followed by weekly releases until the final two weeks, when two episodes will be released together. The 11-episode series will debut on FX and Hulu at 9 PM ET.
