“Dahmer” Teaser Trailer Reveals Evan Peters as Jeffrey Dahmer in Ryan Murphy Series
“American Horror Story” veteran Evan Peters will play the title character in “Dahmer,” a new Netflix series that re-teams him once again with “AHS” creator Ryan Murphy.
Below you’ll find your first look at Evan Peters as real-life serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, who murdered and dismembered seventeen men and boys between 1978 and 1991.
Expect the full trailer from Netflix tomorrow, September 16.
Wikipedia notes, “Many of his later murders involved necrophilia, cannibalism, and the permanent preservation of body parts—typically all or part of the skeleton.“
The series, “chronicles the story of one of America’s most notorious serial killers (Peters), largely told from the point of view of Dahmer’s victims, and dives deeply into the police incompetence and apathy that allowed the Wisconsin native to go on a multiyear killing spree.”
The 10-episode limited series reportedly spans the 1960s through the early 1990s.
The cast is also said to include Niecy Nash, Penelope Ann Miller, Shaun J. Brown, Colin Ford, and Richard Jenkins.
Jeffrey Dahmer was most recently played on screen by Ross Lynch in the film My Friend Dahmer, with Jeremy Renner previously playing Dahmer in a 2002 movie simply titled Dahmer.

If you want to watch a fun movie, watch a Ryuhei Kitamura movie. Whether it’s 2000’s Versus, 2004’s Godzilla: Final Wars, 2008’s The Midnight Meat Train or 2022’s underseen The Price We Pay, Kitamura always knows how to deliver a wild and crazy good time.
Up next from Ryuhei Kitamura? Deadline reports that he’ll be directing Thrill Ride, which sounds a bit like the best parts of Final Destination 3… expanded into a feature film!
Deadline details, “the English-language film will tell the story of a group of people, including two young women, who are trapped upside down on a roller coaster taken over by a mysterious saboteur threatening to drop them all one-by-one to their deaths.”
Film Bridge International is launching the project for sales ahead of the Cannes market.
Chad Law and Christopher Jolley wrote the screenplay.
“Thrill Ride is exactly the type of high-concept based thriller that our customers are looking for in the marketplace,” said Film Bridge’s Ellen Wander and Jordan Dykstra. “With Ryuhei at the helm, we know his vision and execution will deliver thrills of the highest quality.”
“As a hardcore rollercoaster fan since I was young, I immediately fell in love with this script filled with suspense, action, crazy ups and downs, turns, loops, and corkscrews at maximum speed,” adds Kitamura. “I can’t wait to get on a ride and bring life to the wildest rollercoaster imaginable.”
We’re already seated. Stay tuned for more on Thrill Ride as we learn it.
