And it’s another touchdown for Travis Kelce’s television career as the Super Bowl champ joins the cast of Ryan Murphy’s “Grotesquerie” in his first major acting role.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, will act alongside Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance and Lesley Manville in the FX horror show. Deadline was the first to report the casting.
Kelce on Tuesday night shared Nash-Betts’ video from the set. In it, the “Claws” alum, 54, says, “Guys, guess who I’m working with on ‘Grotesquerie,’” then pans to the laughing NFL star.
“Steppin’ into new territory with Niecy!” says Kelce.
The role isn’t the first foray into acting for the “New Heights” podcast co-host. He previously checked that off his career bucket list with a cameo in 2020’s “Moonbase 8,” followed by a hosting gig at “Saturday Night Live” early last year.
Though he’s now in a globetrotting love story with Taylor Swift, Kelce also previously starred in the short-lived reality dating series, “Catching Kelce.”
The news comes on the heels of Kelce being tapped to host “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?” — Amazon Prime Video’s spinoff of “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?”
“Grotesquerie” is one of nine upcoming projects from Emmy winner and master executive producer Murphy, 58. The brain behind “Glee” and “American Horror Story” is also currently working on the series “American Sports Story,” a miniseries based on “A Chorus Line” and another limited series about German starlet Marlene Dietrich.
News Now: NFL fan reveals that Travis Kelce secretly voiced out a new track Tittle “Alcohol” for Taylor Swift set to drop soon, saying how sad he feel about her alcoholic attitude. Here the fan aired out some of the Lyrics.
Taylor Swift fans are convinced that her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, just changed his Instagram picture to a black and white photo as an Easter egg unveiling the popstar’s upcoming studio album.
Some Swifties believe Kelce isn’t the only one from her camp to be in on the reveal, including Gigi Hadid, Blake Lively, Jack Antonoff, Taylor Lautner and Keleigh Teller, though some have had their black and white profile picture for a while now.
Fans believe the black and white pictures indicate that Swift will now release Reputation (Taylor’s Version), leaving one last album to release after feuding with her former label.
Swift describes Reputation as “a goth-punk moment of female rage at being gaslit by an entire social structure. I think a lot of people see it and they’re just like, ‘Sick snakes and strobe lights.’”
Her wardrobe choices as of late have given off those exact vibes. It’s also not the first time Swift adopts a whole aesthetic basen on the next album release.
