Monster EP Ryan Murphy Says No To A Ted Bundy Season — But Won't Rule Out Luigi Mangione

The new season of Monster hasn't premiered yet, but Ryan Murphy is already looking for more gruesome stories to tell.

The executive producer behind Netflix's hit true-crime anthology tells Variety that he's already decided against doing a season about serial killer Ted Bundy. His reason? He doesn't see a way to connect Bundy's heinous acts to a larger social commentary. "When you look at those crimes, what are the themes there?" Murphy asks. "It doesn't ask you any questions about society."

Another high-profile case, though, has caught his eye. Murphy admits he's considered basing a future season of Monster on accused killer Luigi Mangione, who became a media sensation last year after being arrested for the murder of healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. (He's currently awaiting trial.) Murphy says it's still too early to tackle Mangione — "we know nothing about him" — but the EP adds, "We have a 'maybe one day' file."

The new season of Monster debuts this Friday on Netflix, with Charlie Hunnam starring as Ed Gein. Each season of Monster is centered on a different real-life killer who made headlines, with Season 1 starring Evan Peters as cannibalistic killer Jeffrey Dahmer, and Season 2 dramatizing the saga of the Menendez brothers, who killed their parents in 1989. A season about infamous axe murderer Lizzie Borden is also in the works, with Ella Beatty (FEUD: Capote vs. the Swans) set to play the lead role.
