Following all the Golden Globes nominations for Ratched, Ryan Murphy has unveiled a sneak peek at his next Netflix series.
The streamer debuted a slew of new photos that showcase the cast of Halston, the limited series starring Ewan McGregor as fashion designer Roy Halston Frowick.
The show, which is now officially set for a May 14 premiere on Netflix, follows Halston as he "leverages his single, invented name into a worldwide fashion empire that's synonymous with luxury, sex, status, and fame, literally defining the era he lives in, 1970s and '80s New York — until a hostile takeover forces him to battle for control of his most precious asset… the name Halston itself," reads a plot description.
Halston hails from co-creator Daniel Minahan, who also directs the miniseries.

"I grew up in Indiana — where Halston is from — surrounded by cornfields and churches, and I always heard about two people who had gotten out and gone on to bigger, glamorous things: One was Florence Henderson, and one was Halston," Murphy told Tom Ford and Hamish Bowles in an interview published in Vogue. "He was always a big figure in my mind—a representation of somebody who had come from humble beginnings and had gone on to do something incredible with his life—and I was always moved by him.
Murphy, McGregor, and Minahan executive produce Halston with Ian Brennan, Alexis Martin Woodall, Eric Kovtun, Sharr White, Christine Vachon, and Pamela Koffler.
