Monsters creator Ryan Murphy would make more Menendez brothers episodes under one condition

The creator of Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story has revealed the one condition which would lead him to make further episodes.

Recent weeks have seen the Netflix series proving popular but controversial online as viewers had very different reactions to the story.

But while creator Ryan Murphy doesn't have plans for a second season of the show, he may not have finished with the story entirely.

The story itself follows a crime which captivated the US in the 1990s, where two brothers killed their parents, José and Kitty Menendez, in 1989.

The Menendez brothers, Lyle and Erik, were ultimately convicted and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

In their trial the two brothers claimed that they had suffered years of abuse at the hands of their parents.

They cited this as their reason for wanting to kill them.

However, prosecutors argued that the brothers had shot their parents dead to get hold of the family fortune.

With Lyle and Erik in jail the matter was seemingly settle, but now, it has been revealed that a court hearing has been set for them.

Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón is considering new evidence surrounding the claims of abuse by the brothers' father.

And Murphy has suggested that he may be willing to go ahead with a further instalment of the series, on one condition.

That is that Nicholas Alexander Chavez and Cooper Koch reprise their roles playing Lyle and Erik respectively.

He told Variety: "I think what I would be interested in doing, if Nicholas [Alexander Chavez] and Cooper [Koch] would agree to do it, is maybe one or two episodes that continue the story."

While the new hearing could potentially lead to questions being asked about the original trial, no decisions have yet been made about it.

The case came back into the public eye after the release of the Netflix crime drama last month.

Kim Kardashian also published an essay in which she called for the brothers' release.

While Murphy previously said that he didn't want to be a 'part of that machine' regrading justice, he has now become an unexpected advocate for the brothers.

He explained to Variety: “We gave them their moment in the court of public opinion. Basically, we did give them a platform.

“I think they can be out of prison by Christmas. I really believe that.”

Murphy also spoke about his feelings around dealing with issues and stories which are still active, saying: “It’s dangerous, yet exhilarating, to tackle things that are current."
