Netflix anthology series 'Monster' will focus on notorious serial killer Ed Gein in its upcoming season 3, with 'Sons of Anarchy' star Charlie Hunnam taking on the role. Production is set to begin next month.
Ryan Murphy has found its next notorious serial killer for the Netflix anthology series, Monster , as well as the actor behind the role. Season 3 will focus on the notorious serial killer , Ed Gein , and playing him will be Sons of Anarchy star, Charlie Hunnam . The Monster series has already showcased the story of Jeffery Dahmer, and it won't be long till season 2 drops on the streaming giant, where it focuses on Lyle and Erik Menendez.
Gein is infamously known for being a serial killer and body snatcher, to the point he received the nickname, Butcher of Plainfield or Plainfield Ghoul. Born in Wisconsin in 1906, Gein was reported to have a rough childhood, as his father was an alcoholic and his mother was abusive towards him. Gein first caught the attention of police in 1957, due to the disappearance of a hardware store owner. The serial killer admitted guilty to the murder of two women but pled not guilty due to insanity.
When the Anthology series was first released, it faced some criticism, mainly from the relatives of Dahmer's victims. The Los Angeles Times reported that relatives accused the streaming giant of"profiting off the trauma suffered by those Dahmer murdered." It also faced backlash as this serial killer's story received the LGBT+ tag, and was eventually removed.
