Currently the #1 show on Netflix, the riveting MONSTERS: THE LYLE AND ERIK MENENDEZ STORY has taken the world by storm. Dramatizing the murder case in the early ’90s where two brothers murdered their parents, claiming they were in fear of their father killing them after enduring years of abuse. This was an early blueprint of court television, revolutionizing the way the public accessed the courtroom and trials.
The Series is garnering lots of early Awards Season buzz for its two lead actors, Nicholas Alexander Chavez and Cooper Koch, who play Lyle and Erik Menendez, respectively in this latest installment of Ryan Murphy‘s MONSTERS anthology. Its predecessor MONSTERS: THE JEFFREY DAHMER STORY starring Evan Peters in the titular role went on to phenomenal success including wins at the Golden Globes, BAFTA Awards, Critics’ Choice Awards and People’s Choice Awards.
The two breakout stars came to Toronto today to promote the Series, including a live taping of a Sirius XM Canada chat with moderator, Allison Dore to air at a later date. The conversation included how the two Actors achieved chemistry as brothers organically, their opinions of Milli Vanilli (whose music is featured prominently in the Series), the public’s reaction to the Series and Koch walks us through filming an award-worthy one-take scene in episode five.
Some official snaps from the event:
