Evan Peters, a longtime collaborator of Ryan Murphy on American Horror Story, has spoken about his role in FX's The Beauty, where he plays Cooper Madsen, an FBI agent investigating supermodel deaths linked to a drug that can be injected or transmitted through sex to transform users into physically perfect versions of themselves. The drug leads to the season's most brutal finale, "Beautiful Betrayal," where Cooper tries a reverse version of the drug and becomes a young boy. Despite this, Peters did not anticipate a happy ending. He also shared his thoughts on the upcoming "greatest-hits" season of AmericanHorror Story and Jessica Lange's return.
