With summer kicking into gear, along with it comes the season's most coveted television series. One of more highly anticipated shows, although still a couple months away, is preparing for its biggest seasons yet by adding new characters that will completely change its dynamic.
"American Horror Story: Coven" is known to have a female dominated cast, but TV Line reveals that at least one more male other than Evan Peters will be joining for season 3.
"There will be at least one more. The show is currently casting the role of Hank, the handsome, blue-collar husband of one of the witchy women (given his thirtysomething age, I'm guessing either Lily Rabe or Sarah Paulson.)"
It's confirmed that more testosterone is on its way, but it's unclear as to who will play the new arrival. So who will be joining veteran Evan Peters as the second male? Well a recent series of tweets from Sarah Paulson and J. August Richards may hint at the answer.
Richards, from "Angel," tweeted at Paulson, saying, "I can't wait to work with @MsSarahPaulson again ...!!!" to which she responded, "Hey @JAugustRichards I can't wait to work with YOU again!!" on May 22.
Richard may have realized his potential mistake, and in order to halt potential rumors, added, "@MsSarahPaulson Sorry, so random. But so REAL!" to which Paulson later wrote, "I feel the same way!"
Nothing is conclusive, yet it's curious nonetheless. Their conversation stems back to a 2010 episode of "Grey's Anatomy," where to two actors initially worked together. Paulson played a young Ellis Grey while Richards starred as young Richard Webber in the episode "The Time Warp."
There will be many newcomers to the third season of "American Horror Story," such as Emma Roberts, Angela Bassett, Gabourey Sidibe, Patti LuPone and Kathy Bates (note the all female cast). While speculations as to who will play the role of Hank run rampant, stay tuned for more "American Horror Story" news as the third season approaches.
"American Horror Story: Coven" will return to FX in October.
