FX has picked up a new half-hour series written, directed and executive produced by Novak. 

“Thrilled, excited, humbled — these are the words in every press release, and I can’t believe how much I actually mean them,” Novak said in a statement. “This is my dream show, and FX is the dream place to make it. When I brought it to FX, I wondered if it went too far, and they told me, you can go further. I can’t wait to get started.”

According to Deadline, the untitled series will use the “boldest issues of our times as a jumping off point to tell singular, character-driven stories about the world we live in today.”

The series has already started filming, and each episode will feature a different cast. 

Novak is best known for The Office and The Mindy Project. His big screen credits include Inglorious Basterds.

The forthcoming tenth installment of the hit horror franchise has added Macaulay Culkin to its cast. 

Murphy’s video announcement, shared on Instagram, featured the new and returning cast members, confirming that Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters will be coming back for this season of the FX show. Kathy Bates, Leslie Grossman, Billie Lourd, Adina Porter, Lily Rabe, Angelica Ross and Finn Wittrock will also star in season 10. 

Culkin most recently appeared as a guest star on the comedy Dollface. The AHS role will mark his first regular role in a TV series.

The tenth installment of the Ryan Murphy franchise will see the return of veteran star Paulson as a “central character.” The news was confirmed by the actress herself to reporters during the Television Critics Association press tour last week. 

“I can confirm that I will be in next season,” Paulson said. “I have no idea what it will be… But I’m not coming back as a guest part, I will be a central character.”

In other AHS news: the horror anthology has been renewed for three additional seasons, which means it’ll run until at least season 13. But what about Paulson, will she star in those too?

“God willing, I have no idea,” she said. “But I do know that I did ask Ryan, if the question was asked to me, could I say that I was coming back? And he said, ‘Yes, you can say.’ So yes, I will be back on American Horror Story.”

The title is the latest of Stephen King’s work to be adapted for the small screen and will premiere on the network next year as a limited series. 

The horror novel tells the tale of a 16-year-old teenage who is subjected to constant bullying from her high school peers. What they don’t know, however, is that the teenager possesses supernatural powers. Everything then comes to a head when Carrie is elected prom queen…

Originally published in 1974, it was made into a film by Brian De Palma two years later. Sissy Spacek starred as the titular character and received her first Academy Award nomination for her performance. 

The story was remade six years ago based on a screenplay by Riverdale creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, with Chloë Grace Moretz taking over Spacek’s role and Kimberly Peirce taking over from De Palma. 

FX has yet to cast their leading lady or a writer. It is believed, however, that Carrie will be played by a trans performer or actress of color in the upcoming series.

The news of a third-season order for the comic book drama comes ahead of the series’ sophomore season conclusion. 

Originally given a ten-episode order, an additional episode was added, making it a total of eleven episodes for the current season.

Helmed by Noah Hawley, and based on the Marvel Comics by Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz, the series follows David Haller, played by Dan Stevens, who believed himself to be schizophrenic only to discover that he may actually be the most powerful mutant the world has ever seen.

“Legion has redefined the superhero drama and exceeded all expectations as the intensity and revelation build through the second season,” said Eric Schrier, President of original programming. “We are incredibly proud of Noah Hawley’s achievement and are honored to continue the series as it pushes the boundaries of conventional television storytelling. We are also grateful for the contributions of our executive producers, John Cameron, Lauren Shuler Donner, Simon Kinberg, and Jeph Loeb with Marvel Television, as well as our outstanding cast and crew of this groundbreaking show.”

The series also stars Rachel Keller, Jean Smart, Jeremie Harris, Amber Midthunder, Bill Irwin, Aubrey Plaza, Jemaine Clement, Hamish Linklater, and Navid Negahban.

Legion Season 3 is currently slated to air in 2019.
