American Horror Story — and its penchant for stunt casting — is back
Mel Woods talks about the 12th installment of the popular anthology series, subtitled Delicate
American Horror Story: Delicate, the latest season in Ryan Murphy's fan-favourite horror franchise, debuted last week.
Known for attracting high-profile actors like Sarah Paulson and Jessica Lange, this season's star-studded cast includes Emma Roberts, Kim Kardashian and Cara Delevingne.
In her first major role, Kardashian plays a publicist to an up-and-coming actor, played by Roberts.
Culture editor Mel Woods talks about the effectiveness of stunt casting, and why they're excited to see creator Ryan Murphy hand the showrunner reins over to Halley Feiffer this year.
