LOS ANGELES, April 30, 2015 – Golden Globe® Award winner Angela Bassett is the latest American Horror Story veteran to return for AHS: Hotel, the fifth installment of Ryan Murphy’s horror anthology series.

Bassett most recently starred as “Desiree Dupree” in the recently completed AHS: Freak Show and previously as “Marie Laveau” in AHS: Coven, a role that earned her a Primetime Emmy® Award nomination in 2014. She is currently in production on the feature films Survivor and London Has Fallen.

Production of the 13-episode Hotel will begin in Los Angeles in late summer, and will air on FX in October. The American Horror Story franchise is produced by Twentieth Century Fox Television.

  1. This is awesome news! I really hope they make her a more integral part of the story, Desiree was awesome but got shuffled around a lot last year. Bassett is way too much talent to waste.

  2. So the ballroom singer IMDB spoiler is true. Hopefully it's a bigger part than what was described for both, or else it's really a waste of their time and talents.

  6. I don't know if she would be able to sign on as a regular with The Whispers' fate still pending.

  8. That's what I was worried about.
    Though AHS shots from late summer to January and if the Whispers airs in June next year (I'm really hoping for it to be a huge hit) they'll begin production in March so the timing is not an issue.. I think it's up to Lily.. if she wants a little vacation or act 24/7.
    But if I had to choose I'd rather have her as the lead on The Whispers than on AHS where she'd do like 5 episodes.

  9. She needs to be the main character with Katie and Frances.

  10. I forgot she hasn't been announced yet... Yes she needs to come back!!! But my two favorites besides Lange are back (Paulson and Basset)... Hoping Gaga and Bomer kill it!

  11. I keep hoping that she'll get cast soon, hopefully she does. AHS Hotel wouldn't be the same without her.

  12. Yes I agree with Frances. She is great!!! Just need to hear Frances and Lily and I'm all set.

  13. Oh, we need Pepper! I love Pepper!
