Paris Jackson is set to join the upcoming tenth season of American Horror Story. The casting of the model, musician, and actress will see her play an undisclosed role in the new series, alongside AHS regulars such as Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, and Angelica Ross.
Jackson won’t be the only newcomer, though. Last month, creator Ryan Murphy announced that Kaia Gerber is “joining the American Horror Story family” for season 10. Macaulay Culkin (who is, incidentally, Jackson’s godfather) is also set to star in the anthology horror series for the first time.
Currently, they aren’t many details about Jackson’s role in the show (similarly, the theme has so far been kept under wraps, while the release date is yet to be announced following coronavirus delays). TMZ reports that she’ll appear in the second portion of the two-part season, which is aptly titled Double Feature, promising: “two horrifying stories… one by the sea, one by the sand.”
Jackson has previously acted in smaller roles, including appearances in the TV series reboot of Scream, the 2018 comedy film Gringo, and Star.
Outside of American Horror Story season 10, Ryan Murphy is working on a spinoff titled American Horror Stories, which will consist of 16 hour-long episodes “delving into horror myths, legends, and lore”.
The prolific showrunner also recently cast Evan Peters as Jeffrey Dahmer in Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story — a Netflix show that will present the story from the perspective of the notorious serial killer’s victims — and debuted the heart-wrenching trailer for the third and final season of his groundbreaking FX drama, Pose.
