- Netflix's 'Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story' premieres today, September 17, 2026, dramatizing the 1892 ax murders of Andrew Borden and Abby Borden in their Fall River home.
- Lizzie Borden, the daughter of the victims, was acquitted of the killings despite intense public suspicion, leaving the case an enduring American mystery that has captivated audiences for over 100 years.
- At Pulitzer Fountain on Wednesday, stars Ella Beatty and Charlie Hunnam, who portray Lizzie and Andrew respectively, joined creators Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan to celebrate the series' New York premiere.
- Creator Ryan Murphy's anthology examines 'female rage' and repression, with Beatty's portrayal framing the accused murderer as trapped by societal expectations rather than a simple villain.
- Actor Rebecca Hall, who plays Abby, noted the series explores the 'folkloric' nature of the mystery, which has inspired countless adaptations across music, film, theater and television over more than 100 years.
