Evans Peters has transformed into Jeffrey Dahmer, one of the world’s worst serial killers, as the official trailer for Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story has dropped. Peters has been a mainstay in Marvel as he portrayed Quicksilver in the X-Men movies, and as Ralph Bhoner (a weird kind of Quicksilver variant) in WandaVision.
Now, we get to see Evan Peters take on a brand-new role, as he encapsulates himself into being one of the worst serial killers in history. Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story is a limited series that will be debuting on Netflix this month. From the above trailer, we are going to be treated to something quite sinister, as Peters portrays a man that murdered and ate his 17 victims, among many other horrific crimes.
One of the most interesting parts of the trailer is when Jeffrey Dahmer (Evan Peters) is visiting Glenda Cleveland (Niecy Nash). She is sitting on the couch when she is gifted a sandwich by Dahmer, only she refuses. The creepy aspect of the exchange is the emotionless grin that Dahmer is giving off at that moment, which is expertly portrayed by Peters.
The Dahmer – Monser: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story is also set to release another trailer on September 20th, but the above trailer is enough to give us the creepy nature that Evan Peters is going to be bringing to the role of Jeffrey Dahmer. This series will go through Dahmer’s horrific crimes in a 10-episode season.
Evan Peters reunited with Ryan Murphy for this new series, as they have both worked together extensively on American Horror Story. Murphy is the creator of that horror anthology series and is the co-creator of Dahmer – Monser: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story. Considering their previous work together, it makes sense that Murphy could see Peters showcasing Dahmer as the monster he truly was.
This new series is not the first time that Jeffrey Dahmer’s life has been adapted into a show or movie. The most recent was a movie in 2017 called My Friend Dahmer, which was based on a graphic novel of the same name. This graphic novel was created by John Backderf, a man who went to high school with Dahmer, though the graphic novel and movie showed a younger version of the serial killer, who is now being portrayed by Evan Peters.
From the trailer alone, we are going to be seeing a much more horrific take on Jeffrey Dahmer, and Evan Peter looks quite convincing as a serial killer. He may be more known for his heroics as Quicksilver, but he is now going to be taking on a far more sinister role in Dahmer – Monser: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.
Dahmer – Monser: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story officially debuts on September 21st on Netflix, with all 10 episodes of the series coming out at once. The second trailer will be debuting the day before, adding even more excitement to this dramatized biopic series, and we can’t wait to see Evan Peters in this chilling role.
