In a major first look from the set of American Horror Story: Apocalypse, it seems that Stevie Nicks is returning for another cameo along with her Coven season peers.
Ryan Murphy, the show’s creator, posted some pictures on Instagram of Sarah Paulson and Lily Rabe with the Fleetwood Mac singer standing at the foot of a staircase, wearing black skirts, shawls and boots – generally quite witchy attire. Another image showed Nicks, Paulson and Rabe alongside Emma Roberts, Taissa Farmiga, Gabourey Sidibe, and Frances Conroy – most of the original Coven cast.
“The Coven returns,” Murphy wrote on Twitter. “What a thrilling night with the legend Stevie Nicks on the set of AHS.”
Nicks made a cameo in the previous series as a witch – she also sang a rendition of “Rihannon” and her “Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You?”
Apocalypse is set to be the highly anticipated crossover season, which will combine the first series, Murder House, with the third installment, Coven.
It was also recently announced by Paulson, who plays supreme witch Cordelia and directs one episode of the upcoming series, that Jessica Lange would be returning to the show once more. Lange is set to make an appearance as her Murder House character Constance, now the mother of the presumed anti-Christ.
It’s very exciting to see the incredible Coven witches back together again – the season was full of rich storylines, sharp sass, and occult-inspired fashion. What’s a bit confusing though is that many of the characters presumably returned were killed off in their season – Madison Montgomery, Queenie, Myrtle Snow, and Misty Day (who was stuck in hell).
Apocalypse will premiere September 12 on FX
