Sarah Paulson, one of the actresses from American Horror Story, revealed that she was involved in the series in some way. It appears that she will be directing a couple of episodes. During the Netflix panel for Ratched, she said the following; “I’ll be directing something”. Whether or not she will also join as an actress is unknown.
Near the end of May, the American Horror Story spin-off was given the green light by FX. Ryan Murphy released a picture on his Instagram page which shows a bit of new information about the series. It also shows a head without a face, but instead with a spider on a cobweb within.
