Sarah Paulson Becomes Serial Killer in New Netflix Series

Sarah Paulson will take on the role of notorious serial killer Aileen Wuornos in the upcoming Netflix series, 'Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story.' The trailer reveal has sparked discussion as Wuornos' crimes occurred in the late 20th century, long after Lizzie Borden's alleged murders in 1892.

Actress Ella Beatty, who stars as Lizzie Borden, clarified that the season explores a broader theme of female rage and the societal reactions that lead to violence. She noted that creators Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan are interested in mapping the connections between women driven to extreme acts.

Beatty further explained that each season of 'Monster' aims to understand the psychology of its subjects, questioning whether individuals are born or made into perpetrators. This season's focus is on uncovering the catalysts behind women resorting to violence, with Wuornos' story serving as a parallel for this exploration.
