The first season got the series off to a grisly start by documenting the vile crimes of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, then made an interesting pivot to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1671222\/lyle-menendez-bald-real-life-monsters-scene-explained\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Lyle and Erik Menendez's murders;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Lyle and Erik Menendez&#8217;s murders<\/a> of their parents (who allegedly abused their sons). Who, exactly, were the monsters here?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This year, Murphy returned to the serial killer milieu <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1968695\/netflix-monster-the-ed-gein-story-baffling-choice-horror-fans\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:with &quot;Monster: The Ed Gein Story,&quot;;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">with &#8220;Monster: The Ed Gein Story,&#8221;<\/a> which dives into the sordid tale of Ed Gein, who, along with murdering women, engaged in grave robbing and body snatching. Given that Tobe Hooper&#8217;s &#8220;The Texas Chain Saw Massacre&#8221; was based in part on Gein&#8217;s actions, Murphy&#8217;s series is gaining extra attention from horror fans. But if he wants to put up record numbers, the next season would be about Luigi Mangione, the young man who allegedly shot and killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">You can forget about that for now. In a recent <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2025\/tv\/news\/ryan-murphy-menendez-parole-luigi-mangione-monster-1236522122\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:interview with Variety;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">interview with Variety<\/a>, Murphy said Mangione was never a possibility for season 3 because he&#8217;s still a bit of an enigma. &#8220;We know nothing about him,&#8221; said Murphy. &#8220;There was nothing to write\u00a0\u2014\u00a0we didn&#8217;t have information yet. Maybe something will come out in the trial.&#8221; He did add that Mangione&#8217;s name is in his &#8220;maybe one day&#8221; file.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Though we know Murphy currently has no plans for a Mangione season, there&#8217;s no harm in speculating how one would play out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read more: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1724921\/why-randy-quaid-disappeared-hollywood\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Why Randy Quaid Disappeared From Hollywood;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Why Randy Quaid Disappeared From Hollywood<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Luigi Mangione&#8217;s full life story has yet to come to light<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Charlie Hunnam makes a creepy face as Ed Gein in Monster: The Ed Gein Story &#8211; Netflix<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Born on May 6, 1998, Mangione had, by all available accounts, a comfortable, stable childhood. He was the valedictorian of his high school class in Baltimore, and attended the University of Pennsylvania, where he got his Bachelor&#8217;s and Master&#8217;s degrees in Science and Engineering. He studied robotics, briefly worked in the video game industry (on the game &#8220;Civilization VI&#8221;) while cultivating an interest in AI. He made a living as a coder, but he found the profession boring.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Why did such a promising young man allegedly gun down a healthcare executive outside the New York Hilton Midtown? <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/luigi-mangione-manifesto-full-document-1998945\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:He penned a manifesto;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">He penned a manifesto<\/a> in which he went scorched earth on the American health insurance system. &#8220;Frankly, these parasites had it coming,&#8221; wrote Mangione. He expressed concern that the wealthiest country on the planet ranks somewhere in the neighborhood of 42nd in life expectancy, and lamented that this country has allowed these companies to make health care so expensive to the point that many can not afford necessary treatment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Obviously, a public execution is not the right way to litigate the cruel corruption of the health insurance industry, but a series about Mangione would have appeal because he was clearly a bright kid. It&#8217;s possible that his own health issues (most notably a spinal fusion surgery necessitated by a surfing accident) partially motivated his alleged murder of Thompson, but, reading that manifesto, it seems he acted out of despair. He knew these powerful folks would never face the music for killing untold numbers of people by denying their insurance claims. Mangione did something monstrous, absolutely, but, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1273442\/monsters-lyle-erik-menendez-story-everything-we-know-dahmer-follow-up\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:as with the Menendez season;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">as with the Menendez season<\/a>, is there more than one monster in this story?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If you&#8217;re looking for the easiest way to keep up with all the major movie and TV news, why not <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.slashfilm.com\/newsletter-syndicated\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:sign up to our free newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">sign up to our free newsletter<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/1983371\/monster-creator-ryan-murphy-luigi-mangione-tv-series\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:original article on SlashFilm;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">original article on SlashFilm<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ryan Murphy&#8217;s &#8220;Monster&#8221; franchise has generated loads of views and notoriety for Netflix.
