American football star Travis Kelce, 34, is set to make his acting debut in the upcoming crime drama series "Grotesquerie," alongside notable actors Niecy Nash-Betts, Lesley Manville, and Courtney B. Vance. The show centers around Detective Lois Tryon, portrayed by Nash-Betts, and Sister Megan, played by Micaela Diamond, as they investigate a series of disturbing crimes that have shaken a small community. The narrative hints at a personal connection to the crimes, with the detective feeling as though someone is deliberately taunting her. The official logline describes the unsettling atmosphere, stating that Detective Tryon believes the crimes are eerily personal. As she grapples with the lack of leads, she enlists the help of Sister Megan, a nun and journalist. Together, they navigate a complex web of clues that only deepens the mystery, raising more questions than answers. Kelce's role, though brief, features a striking moment where he appears to wave his hands in front of his face, suggesting a deeper connection to the unfolding drama. Kelce, who has gained significant media attention due to his high-profile relationship with pop star Taylor Swift, joined the series in May. In addition to "Grotesquerie," he is also set to host a new spin-off of "Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?" on Amazon Prime Video. "Grotesquerie" is scheduled to premiere on September 25 at 10 PM ET on FX, with streaming available on Hulu the following day. International release dates are yet to be announced.
