Ryan Murphy is moving to Netflix.

The prolific producer has signed a new multi-year overall deal to produce new series and films at the streaming service starting July 1, 2018.

The new deal, which is reportedly worth as much as $300 million, makes exclusive what had already been a growing relationship between Murphy and Netflix. Earlier this month the streamer picked up two seasons of the musical series “The Politician” from Murphy and co-creators Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan. Murphy is also working on Netflix’s “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” prequel series “Ratched,” starring Sarah Paulson.
