Here, Rabe reveals how creator Ryan Murphy afforded her the freedom to raise hell — and in doing so possibly scare up an Emmy nod for Supporting Actress in a TV Movie/Miniseries.

Elizabeth Olsen Gets Frisky With Oscar Isaac in First Still From 'Therese,' Co-Starring Jessica Lange

13 June 2013 9:42 AM, PDT | Indiewire | See recent Indiewire news »

After breaking out with a terrific turn in "Martha Marcy May Marlene," Elizabeth Olsen has yet to find a way to top that performance. But with the upcoming period pic "Therese," that could change. Ahead of its September 27 release and planned Oscar campaign, Ld Entertainment has released the first still from the drama, and it's a scorcher. Set in the lower depths of 1860s Paris, the film, based on Emile Zola's scandalous novel "Therese Raquin," stars Olsen as a sexually repressed woman, stuck in loveless marriage to her sickly cousin (Tom Felton of "Harry Potter" fame), and tyrannized by her domineering aunt (Jessica Lange). Things heat up for the titular Therese when she embarks on a torrid affair with her husband's friend (Oscar Isaac). Check out the still below. »

Emmys: Movies/Miniseries Overview

11 June 2013 7:31 PM, PDT | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »

There is probably no group of Emmy categories that has been more battered and bruised over the years than those of movies and miniseries. In addition to being combined into a single category in 2011, movies and miniseries almost lost their separate supporting categories earlier this year, but the TV Academy jettisoned the rule change before it ever went into effect. And some anti-movie/mini TV Academy execs have even proposed eliminating movie/minis from the Primetime Emmy telecast, creating a separate show that could be sold to HBO or another cable channel with a vested interest in the format. Nevertheless, the movie/mini category has seen both ratings and production increase in the last two years, which is fortunate for one simple reason: Movies and minis give the Emmy show true star power. Past winners include prestigious performers like Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, Jessica Lange and, last year, Kevin Costner and Julianne Moore. »

Sarah Paulson 'Could End Up The Evil One' On 'Ahs: Coven'

11 June 2013 3:17 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

"American Horror Story: Coven" has not yet started filming, but hints about the third season of FX's highly-anticipated series are already trickling out.

Sarah Paulson -- who had a minor role as a medium on Season 1 of the series and a major role in the second "Asylum" season as reporter-turned-patient Lana Winters -- recently told The Hollywood Reporter that fans should expect some big changes in "American Horror Story: Coven."

When asked how different her Season 3 character will be from Lana, Paulson told THR, "Definitely different. Basically, she's going to look different, and my relationship to Jessica Lange is going to be quite different this time. At the beginning of last season, no one knew that Lana would be the hero, so it's possible I could end up the evil one this year. As of right now, there will be some of Lana Winters' qualities in my character, but I don't know for sure. »

Emmys: Sarah Paulson on the Tortures of Being on 'American Horror Story'

11 June 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »

This story originally appeared in The Hollywood Reporter's special Emmy stand-alone issue. Sarah Paulson was put through the wringer on FX's second installment of American Horror Story. In Asylum, Paulson plays Lana Winters, a 1950s-era lesbian journalist determined to expose the wrongdoings inside a mental institution. What she doesn't count on is that the facility's sadistic matron, Jessica Lange's Sister Jude, uses Lana's sexual orientation against her, torturing the intrepid reporter with electroshock therapy. Other horrific traumas follow, from aversion conversion therapy to rape. It was a cathartic journey for the Game Change actress who, thanks to the drama's

'I Never Look At Anything I've Done'

9 June 2013 9:05 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Jessica Lange doesn't watch "American Horror Story." In an interview with Gold Derby, Lange, who won an Emmy for her work on the FX series, said she doesn't watch her own movies or TV shows.

"I watch the first episode only ... both seasons we've had a little screening, a little opening and that's the one and only thing I see ... I have not seen any of it, really," Lange said in the video below.

Lange said sometimes if she catches one of her films on TV she can watch bits. "Mostly, I never look at anything I've done," she said.

Lange's "American Horror Story" Season 1 cast members Connie Britton didn't watch her season. Adam Levine also hasn't watched. "The West Wing" creator Aaron Sorkin said he stopped watching the series after he left following Season 4. Sorkin said Warner Bros. sent him the fifth season premiere and he tried to watch. »

Companion Series Possible For American Horror Story?

7 June 2013 5:57 PM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »

We’ve been busy following developments regarding FX’s all new scary season of their Ryan Murphy property, American Horror Story: Coven. One development isn’t so much about the show’s third run. Instead it focuses on a possible side-kick to the spooky drama. You see, Ryan Murphy has been in extensive talks with the network to do a companion series and today we can report that FX Networks CEO John Landgraf likes the idea.

No official decision has been made at this time, but things are looking good. “I’d love to do it,” Landgraf said of what would potentially be a talk show. “We’re thinking about it. If we do it I don’t think we’ll necessarily do it the way AMC does, as a linear thing. We might do an online thing. We haven’t made a final decision but I think there’s »

FX Considering American Horror Story Companion Series

6 June 2013 6:25 PM, PDT | DailyDead | See recent DailyDead news »

During the PaleyFest panel for American Horror Story in March, Ryan Murphy revealed that he had been thinking about ideas for a potential companion series and it now looks like we could see something that will coincide with the release of American Horror Story: Coven. Here’s what FX Networks CEO John Landgraf had to say during a recent interview:

Via THR: “I’d love to do it,” Landgraf says of the potential talk show. “We’re thinking about it. If we do it I don’t think we’ll necessarily do it the way AMC does, as a linear thing. We might do an online thing. We haven’t made a final decision but I think there’s a decent possibility we’re going to do something like that for Coven.” …The executive noted that the network has done a “fair amount of legwork” on the potential companion, adding »

American Horror Story: Coven to Have a Devilish Companion?

6 June 2013 6:04 PM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

After the incredible amount of batshit nuts insanity we were turned on to in "American Horror Story: Asylum," we cannot wait to see what the powers-that-be have cooked up for Season Three, which is known as "American Horror Story: Coven." We may just get more than we bargained for.

Following a March revelation from co-creator/co-showrunner Ryan Murphy that he was in talks with FX to potentially do a companion series, FX Networks CEO John Landgraf tells The Hollywood Reporter that there's a strong chance the plan will come to fruition.

"I'd love to do it," Landgraf says of the potential talk show. "We're thinking about it. If we do it, I don't think we'll necessarily do it the way AMC does, as a linear thing. We might do an online thing. We haven't made a final decision, but I think there's a decent possibility we're going to do something like that for 'Coven. »

15 Remarkable Modern Film Adaptations Of Shakespeare

6 June 2013 10:00 AM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »

On Friday, Joss Whedon‘s take on Much Ado About Nothing hits theaters. The film is being lauded as one of the funniest screen versions of William Shakespeare‘s work. Whedon’s rendition will join a long list of film adaptations of Shakespeare, whose material has served as the source material for everything from 10 Things I hate About You to West Side Story. In celebration of Shakespeare’s return to the big screen, we’ve rounded up the 15 best adaptations in modern film history.

15. Hamlet (2000)

Bill Murray, Ethan Hawke and Julia Stiles star in this modern-day version of Shakespeare’s play (the first of multiple Hamlet entries). It’s rewarded for its efforts to turn the story into a tech thriller.

14. Titus

Director Julie Taymor (The Lion King, Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark) was the first to bring Shakespeare’s revenge tragedy, Titus Andronicus, to the big screen. While it doesn’t fully come together, »

Scream 4s Emma Roberts Scores Role in American Horror Story: Coven

23 May 2013 | Horror Asylum | See recent Horror Asylum news »

FX's third season of its hit horror series is ramping up. Production on 'American Horror Story: Coven' is well underway over in New Orleans and the next season has scored another new cast member to join its gang of returning players. 'Scream 4' star Emma Roberts (below) has signed on to play a new character named Madison who is being described as 'a self-involved party girl'. The role is particularly handy for Roberts as she is currently dating 'American Horror Story' actor Evan Peters ('Kick-Ass') so trailer tonsil tennis will be a welcome distraction for the young pair. Kathy Bates ('Misery'), Gabourey Sidibe ('Precious'), Angela Bassett ('Olympus Has Fallen') and Patti Lupone also join in with the returning cast members that include Peters, Jessica Lange, Lily Rabe, Taissa Farmiga, Sarah Paulson and Frances Conroy. »

Emma Roberts is the new name to add to ever expanding cast of Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story: Coven. The FX show will return in the fall, and I expect we haven’t even begun the casting updates on this puppy.

Two Casting Announcements Plus Another Closing In on American Horror Story: Coven

22 May 2013 3:00 PM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

We are big fans of the trend by directors and showrunners to report their casting news on Twitter, and American Horror Story: Coven‘s showrunner Ryan Murphy is definitely a proponent. He recently took to the Twitterverse to make a particularly wonderful double casting announcement:

Two legends are joining the cast of American Horror Story: Coven — Oscar nominee Angela Bassett and Tony winner Patti LuPone!

Ryan Murphy (@MrRPMurphy) May 12, 2013

 

TVLine has followed up that announcement with the news that Emma Roberts is close to sealing the deal on her inclusion in the growing cast as well, and that she will be taking on the role of Madison, a self-involved party girl.

No further word on the roles or their duration or, for that matter, what’s in store for us with the new iteration of American Horror Story, but we’re planning on Coven being just as freaky as the first and second seasons. »

'American Horror Story: Coven' Season 3 may be adding Emma Roberts

22 May 2013 11:49 AM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Is Emma Roberts the latest witchy woman to be joining "American Horror Story: Coven," the third season of the spooky FX show that just scored six Critics Choice nominations?

Possibly.

TV Line is reporting that Roberts is nearing a deal to join the drama, which will take place at least partially in New Orleans and focus on witches -- at least, that's what fans are inferring based off of the title for the season. There aren't a lot of actual details just yet.

If she signs on, Roberts will join a hot list of stars who are appearing in "Coven," including her real-life boyfriend Evan Peters.

Others include new faces Angela Bassett, Patti LuPone, Kathy Bates and Gabourey Sidibe, plus returning members Taissa Farmiga, Frances Conroy, Lily Rabe, Sarah Paulson and Jessica Lange.

Which actors do you think might be the witches and which ones might be the witches' targets? »
