'American Horror Story' Season 5: Lady Gaga, Matt Bomer To Work Extensively, Theirs Is 'Really' Fun Storyline
Matt Bomer made a guest appearance in an episode of “American Horror Story-Freak Show” as hustler boy Andy. Now, he is returning to headline the fifth instalment of FX’s horror anthology series, subtitled “Hotel.” And it looks like “White Collar” actor will be shooting a lot of scenes with Lady Gaga.
Without revealing much about his character, Bomer told MTV News that he would be working with Gaga “pretty extensively” and he is excited about that. The actor, however, has yet to meet her. Speaking about their storyline, Bomer said it is “really, really fun. And I think what they're doing with our characters is really unique and kind of an original take on it.”
Both Bomer and Gaga have signed on as series regulars. Gaga became the first confirmed casting for “American Horror Story” Season 5 when she took to Twitter to announce the news as well as the theme and the title of the new season. She, however, did not reveal details about her role. Rumours are swirling on social media that she is playing the role of an heiress.
At PaleyFest in March, it was announced that Bomer and Cheyenne Jackson have signed on to star in the upcoming season, which is scheduled to premiere sometime in October. During the question and answer session, Bomer neither denied nor confirmed that his character will romance Gaga’s character.
The other actors who are checking into “Hotel” as series regulars are Wes Bentley, who had a recurring role as Edward Mordrake in Season 4, and Chloe Sevigny, who had a supporting role in “American Horror Story-Asylum”
AHS veterans Sarah Paulson and Kathy Bates are returning, as well. Murphy revealed on Twitter that Bates’ character will be running the hotel, while he has called Paulson’s character the “baddest bad girl of them all.” Veteran actress Jessica Lange, however, did not budge from her decision that her role in “Freak Show” will be her last for the series. At PaleyFest, the actress said that she is done, putting an end to all the speculations and rumours about her return.
