‘Monsters’ cast respond defensively to subject Erik Menendez’s criticism from prison

Monsters television series have defended it from subject Erik Menendez’s criticism.It comes days after creator Ryan Murphy defended the television show, titled Monsters: The Lyle And Erik Menendez Story, from subject Erik’s criticism saying, “I know he hasn’t watched the show.” Erik described the show as a “dishonest portrayal”.The Netflix series, which came out last Thursday (September 19), stars Nicholas Alexander Chavez and Cooper Koch as the Menéndez brothers, who murdered their parents, José and Kitty, with a shotgun at their Beverly Hills mansion in 1989.In a new interview, Koch, who plays Erik Menendez in the series, said he understood the reaction from the real-life person he plays in the show.“[Erik’s reaction] definitely affected me and it made me feel things,” he said (via Variety). “I sympathise with him, I empathise with him.

In terms of approaching him and approaching the part, I just really wanted to do as much research and dig really deep into myself to really portray him with integrity and just be as authentic as possible to support him and also to support his family and all the people who stand with him.”Nathan Lane meanwhile, who portrays journalist Dominick Dunne in the series, said he was sceptical of Menendez’s reaction considering he hadn’t watched the series, echoing Murphy’s response earlier this week.Dunne explained: “You know, he hasn’t seen the show.
