OPPOSING JESSICA LANGE CHARACTER CLUE!

AHS has put out a casting call recently, looking for a season regular named Gia. Said to be arch-nemesis of Jessica Lange's new character (didn't they say that about Zachary Quinto too?) -- the girl in her mid-20's is described in the notice to be, "fierce, ferocious, extremely sexual and dangerous wild-child sexpot who harbors a secret - think Angelina Jolie in Girl, Interrupted." (TVLine.com)

I read a few rumors and ponderings that Angelina Jolie, herself, might play the role -- since she won a grammy for a similar character named Gia. Highly doubt it... what do you think?

Apparently filming doesn't start until mid-July, so they're really trying to nail down the right girl -- counting Gia, we've got four women confirmed (Jessica Lange, Lily Rabe, Sarah Paulson) and two men (Evan Peters & Zachary Quinto). 

I'm wondering if the Girl, Interrupted mention that was quoted from the casting notice was a clue to the location -- Ryan Murphy said that it would be some kind of institution -- my guess is mental -- what's yours?

Can't wait for next season!

MORE DETAILS ON SEASON 2 REVEALED BY RYAN MURPHY LAST NIGHT!

Check out this Video from Bravo -- Ryan Murphy stopped by Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen last night and answered a few burning AHS questions!

I've already posted in great excitement about his confirmation that Jessica Lange will be returning -- we know it won't be in the same role, but at least she will be back! There's been rumors going around that Murphy was in negotiations with two or three of the actors that appeared on season 1 to come back for season 2.

Well we got a bit more clarification last night -- Murphy confirms that he is in negotiations with four of the people who were on the last season -- BUT -- none of them were the Harmon's. I'm assuming this doesn't include Jessica Lange as he confirmed her, but said he couldn't confirm the others since contracts hadn't been signed yet.

Who are you hoping the four will be?

We know it won't be Connie Britton or Dylan McDermott. And if they didn't previously play a Harmon, that pulls Taissa out of the running. My guess? Evan Peters (this was his breakout role in the industry -- why would he leave after just one season????) and Zachary Quinto (simply because the fans loved him THAT much.) The other two? I'm not so sure -- Kate Mara's signed on to another show, Alexandra Breckenridge is signed on for a pilot -- maybe Old Moira will be back? Could Marcy the realtor be back? LOL!

Murphy ALSO told us that the new location will indeed be on the East Coast -- I suppose that debunks many of the Chicago/IL theories out there. There's so much reference to Virginia, especially in the Birth episode, that I wonder if that will be the state. Seems like many of Murphy's hints were clues right in front of our faces that we seemed to miss or neglect to notice over the season -- that I wouldn't be surprised if it was something so obvious (Rubber Man, reveal anyone?!)

Last bit of news? The new location will NOT be a family home, but instead a 'horror institution' -- whatever that means.

October seems so far away! :(

I'm sure most of you are as excited as I am to hear this -- especially after Ms. Lange scored both a Golden Globe and a SAG award for her role as Constance... Ryan Murphy confirms she's coming back for season 2! While we don't know how big of a role she'll have, she'll be there!

"Murphy appeared on US show Watch What Happens Live on Monday February 6th as reported on The Huffington Post, where host Andy Cohen asked if Lange would make an appearence on Season 2 of American Horror Story, Murphy simply replied, "yes."" Read more here.

LINK: AHS Concept Art

Check out this link for some behind-the-scenes looks at the concept art used to create some of our favorite monsters/humans on AHS. Be warned -- creepy pictures of Infantata follow!

"This concept art was created by Jerad Marantz and Tinsley Studio. From Marantz's site:
Here are a few designs I did for American Horror Story through Tinsley Studio. I had a lot of fun resolving Ryan Murfy's and Christian Tinsley's concepts. This was a great project to work on and I love the show. Can't wait to see what they come up with next season!"

I can't wait either!!

LINK: Jessica Lange Signed On For Season 2?! YAY!

Haven't confirmed this anywhere else yet, but this article from the Examiner.com discusses the current casting calls for Season 2 of AHS.

Apparently 2 or 3 familiar faces will be returning for Season 2, as completely different characters -- this article cites Jessica Lange as a definite! Apparently she confirmed this backstage last night at the Golden Globes -- woman wins a Golden Globe for her role, she better be signed on for season 2!

"Jessica Lange will be one of the familiar faces who will be seen in "American Horror Story" season 2. Met backstage at the 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards, the actress revealed she is signing up for the new chapter of the FX horror show. She stated that she will be playing an entirely new character. Two or three other season 1 actors will be returning for the for the second season as completely different characters, creatures, monsters, etc."

AHS's own Jessica Lange won a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television for her role as Constance.

Congrats, Jessica! You deserved it... Constance was one memorable character.
