Netflix’s Serial Killer Extended Universe just added two new characters.  Season 2 of “Monster” will be called “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story”.

The Menendez Brothers were convicted in 1996 of killing their parents.  They claimed they had suffered a lifetime of abuse, and shot them because they feared for their lives.  But they still got life without parole.

There’s no word on casting yet.

Netflix is also doing a straight documentary, and claims to have, quote, “exclusive access” to Lyle and Erik.
