"Something hellish is here. This killer is someone who knows anatomy. The blood, the DNA, it was left there for us to find," Nash-Betts' character, Detective Lois Tryon, says in the trailer. "It's like God left the keys to the candy store to the devil."
In Grotesquerie , a series of heinous crimes have unsettled a small community and Detective Lois Tryon feels that the crimes are eerily personal, as if someone -- or something -- is taunting her, At home, Lois grapples with a strained relationship with her daughter, a husband in long-term hospital care, and her own inner demons. With no leads and unsure of where to turn, she accepts the help of Sister Megan (Michaela Diamond), a nun and journalist with the Catholic Guardian, Sister Megan, with her own difficult past, has seen the worst of humanity, yet she still believes in its capacity for good. Lois, on the other hand, fears the world is succumbing to evil. As Lois and Sister Megan string together clues, they find themselves ensnared in a sinister web that only seems to raise more questions than answers.
The series, which will have 10-episodes and is set to debut on FX on September 25th, also stars Courtney B. Vance as Marshall Tryon, Lesley Manville as Nurse Redd, Nicholas Alexander Chavez as Father Charlie, and Raven Goodwin as Merrit Tryon. Kelce also appears in the series, though his role has remained under wraps with Kelce previously teasing that it's a "big" role and one that he hopes he does well.
"I was kind of blown away and kinda, like shocked that he was willing to give me a role like this because it is a big role on the show," Kelce said earlier this year during an episode of his New Heights podcast. "He seemed very confident that I'd be able to do this and he kinda injected that in me the first conversation that we had. So, hopefully I don't bomb this for him."
