The Beauty trailer

A sexually transmitted disease grants physical perfection to those infected but comes with a horrific catch: spontaneous combustion and death after approximately 800 days. As the virus spreads through the elite and the desperate alike, detectives Drew Foster and Cara Vaughan are drawn into a global conspiracy involving scientific serums, high-fashion contagion, and the lengths people will go to for a perfect face.

Director: Ryan Murphy, Alexis Martin Woodall Starring: Evan Peters, Rebecca Hall, Anthony Ramos, Jeremy Pope, Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Alexander
