Murphy has said that both Wirrrock and Bomer’s parts in “American Horror Story” Season 5 are big.

Meanwhile, Murphy has ruled out the possibility of musical numbers in “Hotel” despite Gaga starring in it. He told Deadline.com that Gaga has a “pure acting” part and her part is “bananas good.” The co-creator also revealed some details about the new season. He said that it is much darker compared to the previous seasons, adding it is “little bloodier and grislier.”

In addition to Wittrock, Gaga and Bomer, the other actors who have been roped in for the upcoming season are Sarah Paulson, Kathy Bates, Evan Peters, Denis O’Hare, Wes Bentley, Angela Bassett, Chloe Sevigny, Max Greenfield and Cheyenne Jackson.
