After seven seasons of FX's American Horror Story, we've grown accustomed to seeing insane things on screen thanks to Ryan Murphy. But Season eight? Well, let's just say it's going to be a little crazier than usual.
"All I'll say about it is I want to go to the future - still topical, but the future, which I've never done," Murphy explained at the Television Critics Association's semiannual press tour on Friday, clarifying that it wouldn't be in space. "I pitched it to [FX Chief] John Landgraf today right after his TCA panel, and he loved it, but he's asked me not to say what it is. I told him and he fell out of his chair with joy. I think people will like it; it's different from what we've done before, but I always try and do the opposite of what I've done on that show."
So, if it's not in space, what kind of "future," exactly does Murphy mean? Is Paulson's character going to have lasers shooting out of her eyes? Will it be a horrifying mystery in the vein of Minority Report? Will we see Evan Peters using a floating skateboard? Only time will tell, but we can't wait to find out how it connects to the rest of the seasons.
