👣🎬 Ryan Murphy, The Mastermind Behind Blockbuster Films, is Expected to Move to Disney
Buddy, it seems like the big man of the television world, Ryan Murphy, who has hit the jackpot with films like “American Horror Story” and “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story,” will soon pack his bags and enter Walt Disney Company. This move comes after five years of joyfully working with Netflix, with whom he signed a $300 million deal. 💰📺
Since they haven’t finalized the contract discussion with Disney, three people who are privy to the situation have spoken to us. They declined to disclose their identities because the matter is private negotiations. They won’t finish any deal until they resolve the issues that screenwriters in Hollywood are facing, one of these people mentioned. (The screenwriters for films and television have been on strike since May 1.) ✍️🚫
But the way Mr. Murphy and Disney are interacting indicates they are nearing an agreement, the people reported. Mr. Murphy’s contract with Netflix expires at the end of this month. They never even started any discussion to renew his deal with Netflix.
The representatives of Mr. Murphy, Disney, and Netflix just looked at us, they didn’t comment or even return our calls. Bloomberg had reported about Mr. Murphy’s potential move to Disney on Tuesday. 📞❌
If Disney seals the deal with Mr. Murphy, it would seem like he has reunited with the people he had worked with for over ten years. Disney is the owner of the FX cable channel, which is the home to his “American Horror Story” that began in 2011. (They also show the series on Hulu, which Disney controls.) ABC, the broadcast network owned by Disney, recently bought the rights to “9-1-1,” a drama that Mr. Murphy created for Fox in 2018. 📡👻
When Mr. Murphy signed his deal with Netflix, in February 2018, it was just six months after another big producer, Shonda Rhimes, signed her own nine-figure contract with the streaming company. As soon as they signed the contracts, Netflix made a strong statement that they are ready to pay any price for big-name writers. It felt like a competition in Hollywood (but due to concerns about the streaming business and the writers’ strike, it has mostly cooled off). 🖊️🏁
When Mr. Murphy started his work at Netflix, there were some bumps in the road. They didn’t really appreciate “The Politician” and “Hollywood.” It wasn’t until last September that he dropped massive hits like “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” and “The Watcher.” These two series are among the top 10 most-watched Netflix originals ever, as reported by the streaming service. 🎉📈
Mr. Murphy, who continues to produce shows for Disney even while he’s under contract with Netflix — they’re still producing new seasons of “9-1-1” and “American Crime Story” — will continue to make shows for Netflix even if he moves to Disney. The next edition of “Monster” will focus on Erik and Lyle Menéndez, the two brothers who are serving life sentences for killing their wealthy parents in 1989, and “The Watcher” has been renewed for another season. 👀🎥
