Ryan Murphy Announces New Show About Classic Hollywood
It's gonna be gay, right?
Ryan Murphy’s got a new show coming to Netflix, and we can’t wait to see how gay it is.
The show is currently titled Hollywood, and not much is known about it beyond that it will be a “love letter to the Golden Age of Tinseltown,” and was co-created with frequent collaborator Ian Brennan.
Murphy, who is obviously known for some of our faves such as Pose, American Horror Story, and, of course, Glee, inked an overall deal with Netflix last year, opting to create new shows for the streaming platform rather than continue on with his previous home at 20th Century Fox.
Previously announced collaborations between Murphy and Netflix include The Politician, set to star Ben Platt, and Ratched, a prequel to One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest starring Sarah Paulson.
Two things Murphy has done over the years is show his proclivity for working with the same actors over and over again and being very LGBTQ inclusive, so we’re excited to see which of our faves will show up in the new production, and which will inevitably be playing closeted starlets from Hollywood’s past.
The news also comes on the heels of the showrunner teasing the possibility of bringing back Scream Queens, the short-lived pseudo-anthology dramedy series that lasted two seasons on Fox. The show starred Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, and Abigail Breslin as entitled mean girls constantly finding themselves in absurd situations fraught with murder and bizarre scandals.
Murphy already has, what, eight? Nine? Ten? shows on air or in the works right now, so what’s another revival added to the mix?
As for Hollywood, it’s been ordered straight to series by the streaming giant, and is set to begin filming this summer.
