For just about a decade, American Horror Stories.
Instead of each season focusing on a different storyline, this takes that concept further by having each episode be totally unique. The cast is loaded with talents from previous Ryan Murphy projects and some new to this franchise. Regardless of their careers so far, they should all be pretty recognizable to most of the audience.
Rhenzy Feliz - Marvel's Runaways
The third episode of the series, "Drive In," centers on a movie being shown that causes viewers to murder each other. At the heart of the tale is a couple named Kelley and Chad, who attend the screening together. Chad is played by the talented Rhenzy Feliz.
For the most part, Feliz is really only just getting his career off of the ground. He had a recurring role on Encanto.
Merrin Dungey - Once Upon A Time
Fans of the franchise will certainly notice something familiar with the first story told as it's a two-part event titled "Rubber (Wo)man," which notably ca`lls back to one of the most iconic memories from American Horror Story Murder House.
While the cast is strong throughout, Merrin Dungey gets to shine in her appearances as Dr. Andi Grant. Dungey is a veteran actor with credits going back as far as Deep Impact and Martin. She might most be known for her work as Ursula in six episodes of Once Upon a Time.
Aaron Tveit - Graceland
Following that first installment of "Rubber (W0)man," some new faces appear in the follow-up. Among them is a man named Adam, who is a contractor that one of the lead characters has an affair with. Adam is portrayed by Aaron Tveit, who might actually be an even better singer than he is an actor.
He has numerous musical credits to his name, including a Tony Award nomination and a Graceland, playing an undercover FBI agent.
Sierra McCormick - The Vast Of Night
Ryan Murphy seems to always have a keen eye for young talent, helping to launch the careers of many Hollywood success stories. Sierra McCormick could follow suit as she was a highlight of "Rubber (W0)man" as Scarlett, a rebellious teen who takes a truly dark turn. She is certainly a star on the rise.
For the most part, McCormick has shown up in many popular shows for an episode or two. That includes a turn as Lilith when she was just a child in The Vast of Night, a hidden gem of a sci-fi movie about aliens set in the 1950s.
Virginia Gardner - Halloween
Since not every episode is out at the moment, it can be difficult to figure out which actors will be playing which roles and what those characters will do. For example, an installment is "Ba'al," and one of the actors set to lead the way is Virginia Gardner. All that is known so far is that the episode will focus on a woman desperate to become pregnant.
Gardner will play someone named Bernadette. The actor is no stranger to this genre, playing Vicky (the best friend of final girl Allyson) in 2018's Marvel's Runaways.
Kevin McHale - Glee
When Ryan Murphy forms a connection with a performer, you can bet that you'll be seeing them pop up often in his projects. It has been the case for Emma Roberts, Sarah Paulson, Zachary Quinto, and so many others. One of those actors is Kevin McHale, who showed up in the most recent episode, "The Naughty List."
In it, McHale played Barry, one of the influencers living together when they're attacked by a murderous Santa Claus. McHale has a long history with Murphy dating back to his long-standing role Glee. It's actually surprising that this is his first appearance for this franchise.
Paris Jackson - Gringo
Back to "Rubber (Wo)man" for Paris Jackson, who plays Maya in the two-part episode. Maya is the crush of the aforementioned rebellious Scarlett but does something terrible to her, leading her to be involved in what is arguably the most memorable moment from the storyline.
As an actor, Jackson doesn't have many credits just yet. Her biggest movie is likely Gringo though it was in a small role. She had a bigger part in The Space Between, playing Cory, a film that centered on the music business. Of course, she is most famous for being the daughter of Michael Jackson but she is carving out her own legacy.
Madison Bailey - Outer Banks
In the "Drive In" episode, it was mentioned that there's a main couple who attend the movie premiere. Feliz plays the boyfriend, while his other half Kelley is portrayed by Madison Bailey. Kelley is one of the episode's heroes, though how much of a success they are is to be determined.
Bailey is one of the rising stars in Hollywood, first really rising to prominence with her recurring part on Outer Banks. A week after her episode of AHS dropped, season 2 of Outer Banks was released, making her someone who audiences are talking about lately.
Matt Bomer - Chuck
Another frequent partner of Ryan Murphy is Matt Bomer. The pair have worked together on American Crime Story.
In this iteration of AHS, Bomer played Michael in "Rubber (Wo)man," one of Scarlett's house-flipping fathers. The actor has had a lengthy and impressive career, leading a series in Chuck, where his character put the entire series into motion.
Billie Lourd - Booksmart
Pretty much everyone knows Billie Lourd as the daughter of the iconic Carrie Fisher. She even appeared alongside her mother in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, donning a similar hairdo. Lourd's acting career is impressive in its own right and really got started by working with Ryan Murphy on Scream Queens.
There she played Sadie Swenson/Chanel #3 and often stole every scene she was in. Lourd is set to take on the role of Liv Whitley in the AHS episode titled "Ba'al." Lourd also appeared in Booksmart as Gigi, another scene-stealer. On top of that, she was in three seasons of American Horror Story, while also being set to the 10th season.
