But there has been one constant across the series after all these years, and that’s the exceptional work from Sarah Paulson, who has taken all sorts of characters and made them some of the best elements of each season. Sadly, fans will not have that satisfaction this year, as it’s been revealed that Paulson will not have a major role in this new season, and will be sitting out this round of terror.
Variety got the exclusive that Paulson won’t have a starring role in the new season, AMERICAN HORROR STORY: 1984, after appearing in all eight of the previous seasons of the hit series from Ryan Murphy.
The report says that Paulson “could appear in a cameo” at some point, but otherwise this will mark the first time she has not appeared on the show. She began her tenure after appearing in three episodes in the show’s first season and went on to have major roles in all seasons since, earning five Emmy nominations in the process. Another AHS veteran, Evan Peters, also said he’s not returning for the ninth season.
Not much is known about the new season, but Murphy did reveal the title with a short promo video some time ago, teasing a style that harkens back to 80s slasher movies. The show has also been renewed for a tenth season after this one.
