Ryan Murphy Considers Luigi Mangione Season for Netflix Monster

Ryan Murphy, the creator of Netflix's true-crime anthology series "Monster," has considered developing a future season focused on Luigi Mangione, the 27-year-old accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. However, Murphy states that it is still too early to create a series about Mangione, citing a lack of available information and details pending from the ongoing trial, placing the story in a "maybe one day" file. Murphy has dismissed the idea of a season about serial killer Ted Bundy, explaining that Bundy's crimes do not provoke broader societal questions. The upcoming season of "Monster," releasing October 3, will focus on Ed Gein, with previous seasons covering Jeffrey Dahmer and the Menendez brothers. Mangione's case has drawn public attention due to allegations of corporate greed motives, a high-profile arrest, and legal controversies including claims of prejudicial public statements and a dramatic perp walk. Despite fan interest and some resemblance to actor Dave Franco, Murphy remains cautious about proceeding until more information emerges from the trial.
