(PCM) The cast and creators of the FX hit series American Horror Story recently attended PaleyFest last night and provided us with some additional information about the upcoming fourth season “Freak Show”.
It was revealed that ” The Shield” actor Michael Chiklis will be joining the cast this season, as he made a surprise appearance during the show’s PaleyFest panel. It has been revealed that season four of American Horror Story will again star Jessica Lange and will be set in a 1950′s Jupiter, FL, with Lange portraying an German ex-Pat managing one of the last remaining freak shows in the country.
In addition to Chiklis, other cast members confirmed to participate in “AHS:Freak Show” will be Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Frances Conroy, Kathy Bates, Jamie Brewer and Gabourey Sidibe. Both Denis O’Hare and Emma Roberts are still in talks for a return to the series, so we would not be surprised to see them back as well. The only person not mentioned was fan favorite Lily Rabe, who was not in attendance for PaleyFest, as she was in production, so there has been no word on whether she is in or out for the new season.
While not many details about the plot could be revealed, it was stated that Chiklis will be playing the father to Peters’ character and ex-husband to Bates’ character. Murphy claimed that he had pursued Chiklis for AHS for quite a while and also revealed that there will be some members of the season one and two casts that return for “Freak Show”.
