American Horror Story: Coven is filling out their already impressive cast, with the addition of Alexandra Breckenridge to its bewitching ensemble. Series boss Ryan Murphy announced the casting Friday morning on Twitter.
Breckenridge of course was part of FX’s original Horror Story, playing the younger, um, more libidinal alter ego of Frances Conroy’s housekeeper Moira. She joins a Coven cast that includes fellow Horror Story alumni Jessica Lange, Denis O’Hare, Sarah Paulson, Lily Rabe, Frances Conroy, Evan Peters and Taissa Farmiga, as well as new blood Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Emma Roberts, Patti LuPone and Gabourey Sidibe.
Details on Breckenridge’s role were not immediately available, though that and other storyline information is bound to be revealed up when Horror Story: Coven holds court this afternoon at the Television Critics Assoc. press tour in Beverly Hills.
