(Los Angeles, CA / October 1, 2024) – Award-winning performer Mick Blue has landed a role in Netflix’s hit series Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, portraying a Los Angeles County Jail inmate serving time alongside the infamous brothers.
This exciting opportunity marks Blue’s latest crossover into mainstream media as part of Ryan Murphy’s critically acclaimed anthology series, and according to Blue, his journey to the role came about unexpectedly while on a flight to Las Vegas.
“I saw the audition call for a featured background actor, immediately sent in my audition, and three hours later I was booked for the role! It was a fast turnaround,” shared Blue, who stands out in his featured scenes that take place in the jail’s communal showers – in particular, the scene where an inmate pulls off Lyle Menendez’s toupee and the men surrounding him laugh at the spectacle.
Stepping onto the set in April, Blue was immediately struck by the scale of the production. “I couldn’t believe it when I found out that I would be a part of Ryan Murphy’s anthology series,“ Blue recalled. “It was my first time spending two-and-a-half hours in makeup to get sticker tattoos. They told me, ‘You look too nice—let’s get you tatted!’ It was a really great experience.”
Reflecting on his role, Blue added, “I was lucky to be in a featured part where the audience can clearly see me. Often in background roles, you’re not as visible, but this time, it all came together so quickly. You have to start with those little moments to get to the big ones.”
