American Horror Story Season 10 Greenlit By FX

American Horror Story Season 10 greenlit by FX

Before the Season 8 premiere of American Horror Story: Apocalypse, FX Networks has already greenlit Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story Season 10!

“Ryan asked for a 10^th season of American Horror Story which we were happy to give to him,” FX CEO John Landgraf said in an interview via Deadline. “He has been really prolific; he has been an important part of the FX brand, and he will continue to be a very important part of the FX brand.” 

When asked about the future of the show, Landgraf said that Murphy will be the one to decide if Season 10 will be the last installment of the American Horror Story series. “A lot of that comes down to Ryan and whether he still feels inspired about it. I think the eighth cycle, which is currently in production, is awesome and crazy, and I think the fans will really like it. Part of what’s cool about American Horror Story is its anthology nature. So it comes down to whether Ryan and his collaborators, like (showrunner) Tim Minear, could come up with stories that they are excited about.”

Series co-creator Murphy (Glee, Feud) has already confirmed that the new season will be a crossover between Season 1 (Murder House) and Season 3 (Coven). The two different seasons had dramatically different endings when they concluded, with Murder House ending with the impending arrival of the Antichrist and Coven ending with the witch school happily opening itself up to the public. It remains to be seen how the two will intertwine, or what the narrative will be.

It was previously announced most of the returning cast members would come back for the eighth season, including Sarah Paulson, Kathy Bates, Evan Peters, Adina Porter, Cheyenne Jackson, Billy Eichner, Leslie Grossman and Billie Lourd, as well as franchise newcomers Joan Collins and Cody Fern. It remains to be seen how actors like Paulson or Peters will factor into the crossover, having played two different characters in both seasons.

The Emmy, Golden Globe and AFI Award-winning series from co-creators Murphy and Brad Falchuk aired its seventh season on FX last year. The sixth installment, American Horror Story: Roanoke, recently received four Emmy Award nominations in the hairstyling, makeup and sound editing categories. The American Horror Story franchise has received 28 Emmy nominations and four wins over its previous six seasons. It is produced by Twentieth Century Fox Television. American Horror Story was renewed for two more seasons back in January of 2017.

American Horror Story: Apocalypse will premiere on September 12 on FX.
