Lyle Menendez Actor Nicholas Chavez Says ‘Intensive Preparation’ Went Into ‘Monsters’ Role: I Was ‘Thrown Into the Depths’ of Ryan Murphy’s Vision
Nicholas Chavez, who plays Lyle Menendez in Netflix's 'Monsters,' says there was "intensive preparation" compared to Ryan Murphy's "Grotesquerie."
Nicholas Alexander Chavez is having a breakthrough moment with major roles across two of Ryan Murphy’s latest projects: the Netflix miniseries “ Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story ” and FX’s upcoming Catholic horror fable “ Grotesquerie.” In a Monday press conference promoting the latter series, Chavez dug into how the two productions necessitated different approaches, considering one is based on real events and the other is a fictional story. The Menendez project had a context already set for it, where we’re telling the story that’s based on true events that happened in 1989 and the early ’90s,” Chavez said. During Monday’s interview, Chavez also explained that he went from “Monsters” to “Grotesquerie” fairly quickly, with little time to switch gears.
