In what The Hollywood Reporter’s chief TV critic Daniel Feinberg calls an “occasionally provocative blend of Nip/Tuck and various American Horror Story iterations,” Ryan Murphy’s The Beauty — written and co-created by Matt Hodgson — centers on a mysterious drug that promises unimaginable physical attractiveness. Also sexually transmissible, “The Beauty” can transform its users into what society deems perfection, though not without the risk of devastating side effects. The show asks: How much are you willing to sacrifice for eternal youth? A star-studded cast joins the ride, including Murphy regulars Evan Peters and Jeremy Pope, alongside first-time Murphy-verse additions like Ashton Kutcher, plus a slate of notable guest stars. First premiering with a three episode launch on Wednesday, Jan. 21, the remaining episodes rolled out weekly across the 11-episode season, with two episodes released in each of the final two weeks. Since each episode brings more familiar faces into the show, The Hollywood Reporter has kept track of all of the stars who appeared in The Beauty with explainers on the characters they play. This list originally posted Jan. 21 and has been updated weekly as new characters were revealed. All episodes of The Beauty are currently streaming on Hulu.

She steps off the runway and onto a vicious rampage, before she later explodes and dies.
