FX releases a first teaser for “American Horror Story: 13,” confirming several returning performers and revealing the season’s release plan. Both outlets report that FX is rolling out the season as 13 half-hour episodes, premiering on Sept. 24.
The teaser highlights an all-star lineup drawn from multiple prior seasons. Variety and The Hollywood Reporter both say Jessica Lange returns as Constance Langdon and Evan Peters returns as Kai Anderson. They also both reference returning characters and performers tied to earlier installments, including Sarah Paulson, Angela Bassett, and Emma Roberts, associated with roles from “AHS: Coven” via Cordelia Goode, Marie Laveau, and Madison Montgomery, respectively. The Hollywood Reporter additionally notes the teaser includes “Twisty the Clown” and “Rubber Man,” underscoring the anthology’s recurring creature-and-character approach.
Across coverage, the emphasis differs slightly: Variety foregrounds the confirmed cast and character connections across seasons, while The Hollywood Reporter spotlights the teaser’s standout imagery alongside the premiere date and episode format.
