Pose star Michaela Jaé ‘MJ’ Rodriguez is reuniting with Ryan Murphy for the 12th season of American Horror Story (AHS).

Rodriguez joins the already-announced cast of Kim Kardashian, Emma Roberts, and Cara Delevingne.

So far, there are no details about who anyone is playing in the show.

Since its debut in 2011, American Horror Story has featured a plethora of famous faces including Lady Gaga, Macaulay Culkin, and Angela Bassett.

MJ previously worked with Ryan on Pose, for which she made history as the first trans actress to win a Golden Globe.

She was also nominated in the Lead Actress category at the Primetime Emmys for Pose in 2021

The 12th season of AHS is titled Delicate and is based, at least in part, on Danielle Valentine’s upcoming novel Delicate Condition.

Valentine’s novel is a thriller about a woman terrified of a sinister figure that prevents her from falling pregnant.

The forthcoming anthology series will, for the first time, be written and run by a single writer, Halley Feiffer. It has been billed to be a feminist update of Rosemary’s Baby.

American Horror Story is due to air in August of this year.
