Jeremy Renner, best known for playing Hawkeye in Marvel's "Avengers" movies, portrayed the serial killer in the 2002 drama "Dahmer." Ross Lynch played the young Dahmer going to high school in Ohio in 2017's "My Friend Dahmer." He's also just the latest name actor to play Dahmer. Peters, who also played the Pietro/Quicksilver character in three "X-Men" movies, is a veteran of Murphy's "American Horror Story" projects for FX. According to Variety, the series will depict at least 10 times that Dahmer was apprehended by police but not prosecuted. Unlike many pop-culture iterations of the Dahmer case, which focus on the serial killer's psyche, "Monster" will aim to tell the story through the eyes of his victims, and look at how Dahmer's white privilege shaped Milwaukee law enforcement's approach to the case.
