FX has greenlit “American Horror Story” for its 14th season, the network announced in advance of the Season 13 finale scheduled for Oct. 29. The current season reunites multiple franchise veterans alongside new cast additions in what marks a significant milestone for the long-running horror anthology series.
Season 13 features returning stars Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, Gabourey Sidibe, Leslie Grossman, Frances Conroy, Jamie Brewer, John Carroll Lynch, Mena Suvari and Mat Fraser. Additional cast members include Seth Gabel, known from spinoff “American Horror Stories.” New additions to the franchise for this season encompass Joey Pollari, Avantika, Elle Chapman, Berto Colon, Alex Consani, Orlando Jones, Paul Anthony Kelly, Tig Notaro, Madelaine Petsch, Fedor Steer, Zach Villa, John Waters and others. Pollari’s character works as a hospice care worker managing a phobia of the number 13 while caring for characters from earlier seasons, explaining the substantial roster of returning performers.
The current season opened to 4 million views within its first four days of streaming, representing the strongest premiere performance in franchise history. This achievement is particularly notable given the three-year gap between the 2023 premiere of Season 12, “Delicate,” and the launch of Season 13.
Created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk, “American Horror Story” holds the distinction of being FX’s longest-running hour-long series. The franchise has accumulated more than 2 billion hours of viewership since the debut of Season 1 in 2011. Season 13 is executive produced by Murphy, Falchuk, Ned Martel, Charlie Carver, Eric Kovtun, Nissa Diederich, Scott Robertson, Tanase Popa, Crystle Roberson Dorsey, Jennifer Salt and Tim Minear, with 20th Television serving as the production studio.
