Based on the comic book series of the same name, The Beauty follows two FBI agents played by Evan Peters and Rebecca Hall as they are sent over to Paris to investigate a string of gruesome and mysterious deaths of international super models.

As they delve deeper into the case, they uncover a sexually transmitted virus that transforms ordinary people into visions of physical perfection, but with terrifying consequences.

Their investigation leads them directly to the shadowy tech billionaire, played by Ashton Kutcher, who has secretly engineered a miracle drug dubbed The Beauty.

A desperate insider (Jeremy Pope), is caught up in the drama as the agents travel across European capital cities and New York to stop a threat that could alter the future of humanity.
