Travis Kelce will make his acting debut in Ryan Murphy’s “Grotesquerie” Wednesday night in a part that Murphy said was tailor-made for the three-time Super Bowl winner.
The horror drama follows Niecy Nash-Betts as Detective Lois Tryon and Michaela Diamond as her nun-journalist sidekick Sister Megan as the two attempt to solve the heinous crimes that have been plaguing the town. Lois feels taunted by the crimes as they have hit a little close to home. The details of Kelce’s part are still unknown, but Murphy said the tight end was coachable on set and gave a “committed” performance.
The series will premiere on FX and will be available to stream on Hulu the following day.
