Few men in the history of television have been more prolific than Ryan Murphy. The creator and producer also has a lineup of regular players that he likes to use in project after project, and he’s reuniting with an old favorite for his latest. His new series, which is titled The Beauty, will star Evan Peters alongside Anthony Ramos, Jeremy Pope, and Ashton Kutcher, according to Variety.

The show will be based on the Image Comics series of the same name written by Jeremy Haun and Jason A. Hurley, and Murphy is serving as co-creator alongside Matthew Hodgson. The series will be produced at 20th Century Television, which is part of Disney, where Murphy has a general deal.

The show’s plot details are being kept under wraps, but the comics the show is based on tell the story of a pair of detectives who are living in a world where perfect beauty is attainable. Although most people have taken advantage of the benefit, the detectives eventually discover that it comes at a great cost.

FX will begin production on the series this fall and has ordered 11 episodes of the show. The Beauty marks a reunion for Murphy and Peters, who have been frequent collaborators in the past. Peters starred in nine seasons of Murphy’s American Horror Story and was a producer on a tenth, and he also appeared in the first season of Pose, which Murphy co-created. Murphy also co-crated Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, which Peters starred in and was one of the most watched series in the history of Netflix following its debut.

15 movies every man should watch as often as possible

Movies that will teach you to be a man and entertain you at the same time

Person, Sitting, Adult

Everyone loves a good movie night. Whether you like to get dressed and head to the theater so you can justify the biggest bucket of popcorn and soda you can find for something new, or you are the kind of guy who likes to lie out on the couch for an old faithful, we all love to sit down and allow escapism to take us somewhere more digestible than the real world. Some movies are meant to inspire; others are meant to frighten. There are good bang, bang, shoot 'em ups, roaring comedies, and everything in between. However, movies are also the best teaching tools if you know how to pull the right themes and ideas while watching. Now, this doesn't mean you can get all you need to know from movies, but they are a great jumping-off point for learning some style, solving problems, or navigating adversity. This isn't like every other movie ranking; this one has a specific purpose.

There are thousands of movies in every category below to choose from, and curating your own go-to list will help you elevate your life on your own terms, but here are 15 movies every man should watch soon and often.

Remembering Sam Neill and the two times he changed Hollywood

The legendary actor changed Hollywood first by NOT being in a movie, then again by being in a movie.

Face, Happy, Head

We lost a legend yesterday. On July 13th, I was standing on the plains of Africa on safari when I got a Google alert (yes, my service worked all the way out among the Big Five). One of my favorites from my childhood passed away. Dr. Alan Grant, the man who introduced me to dinosaurs when I was a child, had passed away suddenly. Today, it was reported that he died from pneumonia due to having a compromised immune system after years of fighting a type of blood cancer. I don't know why it hit me so hard. Maybe because it was a piece of my childhood stripped from me. Maybe we're all still trying to recapture the wonders of our world that he so expertly presented as thrilling entertainment. Whatever the reason, I have been thinking about it ever since. I even watched Jurassic Park on the flight back (thank you, Delta Airlines for having it available since every streaming service out there has pulled it now in favor of rent service). That is when I started thinking about his career. From Jurassic Park and Merlin to Peaky Blinders and Event Horizon, here are two times Sam Neill changed Hollywood. Once with his presence and once with his absence.

He was almost 007

What to expect at the Scottish Open — without looking too far ahead with The Open around the corner

The Scottish Open returns to The Renaissance Club, just outside of Edinburgh.

Field, Nature, Outdoors

The Genesis Scottish Open is here. It feels like a major tournament. Keyword, feels. The actual major tournament, The Open, golf's oldest tournament, is scheduled next week. But the field in Scotland is not treating the Scottish Open like a tune-up to The Open. If nothing else, the field at the Renaissance Club is excited about the mix of players scheduled to hit the links.

While, yes, PGA Tour players like Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler are expected this weekend, fans should also expect to see, yes, LIV Tour players. That's because the Scottish Open is co-sanctioned by the PGA and European Tours. So, while the PGA Tour banned players who defected to play with LIV some four years ago, the European Tour has allowed them to play at its events.
