American Horror Story‘s (AHS) Jessica Lange has discussed the likelihood of her returning to the show.
The award-winning actress first appeared in season one of the show. She appeared in three consecutive seasons after Murder House and then took a three-season hiatus from the series. In the dramatic cross-over season Apocalypse, Lange reprised her role as Constance Langdon. But will she be returning in any of the seasons to come?
“I don’t think I would want to start from scratch and create a character,” Lange told The Wrap.
“And also I think a lot of the actors that I was working with, people that I really love working with, like Sarah [Paulson] or Frances [Conroy] or Kathy [Bates] – I don’t know who’s in this new season [1984], but I don’t think it would be the same.
“We were like a troupe. We were like the old-fashioned kind of troupe of actors, just moving from one part to the other. And that was part of what I really loved about doing it was you’d come back with a whole different story, different characters, but the same actors year after year. And that was wonderful.
“But I don’t think that would be the case now and I don’t think I would want to start over from scratch really. I don’t think that will happen.”
The bad news is that it sounds like Lange is unlikely to return to the AHS universe. The good news, however, is that American Horror Story: 1984 premiered last night.
