Travis Kelce is beginning his career in Hollywood.
The Kansas City Chiefs player, who has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift since the previous year, has cast his first significant TV part in Ryan Murphy’s new FX series Grotesquerie, according to Deadline.
The new series, presently in development, stars Travis Kelce opposite Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance, and Lesley Manville.
Nash-Betts, the main character of the show, also verified the NFL player’s participation on social media.
“Guys, guess who I am working with on Grotesquerie,” Nash-Betts says in a recently posted Instagram story before turning her camera to reveal Kelce, who says, “Coming into a new territory. With Niecy!.”
Footage has since surfaced of Kelce on set.

While filming Murphy’s new program, Kelce was dressed in a brown jacket, white pants, and a white shirt. Next, the All-Pro tight end was questioned about his thoughts about working on this project.
“I’m just glad I didn’t hurt nobody,” Kelce replied before breaking out into laughter.
According to Deadline, the horror series will also star Courtney B. Vance and Lesley Manville, in addition to Niecy and Travis Kelce. The series is being created by the same person who created American Horror Story, so fans can expect some spine-tingling entertainment even though plot details are being kept under wraps.
Despite having only made a surprise appearance on an episode of Moonbase 8 in 2020, Travis has already established himself as a megastar. He recently inked a $34.25 million contract with the Chiefs, making him the highest-paid tight end in the NFL.
