American Horror Story season 13—which currently does not have a confirmed subtitle—is set to premiere in September 2026, according to TechRadar. Creator Ryan Murphy has confirmed that the new episodes will be a direct sequel to the show's popular third season, Coven.
Cast Details and Jessica Lange's Return
Core cast members from 2013's Coven, including Sarah Paulson, Emma Roberts, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, and Gabourey Sidibe, are all reprising their roles, reported TechRadar. Jessica Lange is also rejoining AHS for the first time since season 8. It is not publicly known whether she will reprise her Coven role as Fiona Goode, as rumors suggest she could return as her season 1 character Constance Langdon.
New season 13 star Berto Colón, joining the cast as Joe the Doorman, spoke to TechRadar about the project. "I've already worked on four of the episodes.... they're still shooting in New York City," Colón said. "Season 13 will be 13 episodes, and it's public knowledge that all the stars are coming back. The story is a New York story that is going to be very freaky, very demonic... it's going to involve a lot of scary elements."
Colón added: "It's a crazy world that Ryan Murphy has created and it's incredible that I join these ensembles and something evolves from them that becomes better than the original situation. I'm hired for one or two episodes and then I end up doing an entire season... so, fingers crossed, that'll be the same case here."
Character Connections
When asked about his role, Colón revealed, "My role in AHS is very directly connected to Jessica Lange's character, and she's number one. It's gonna be fun. Based on the years of these and the seasons that I've watched, I think this is gonna be one of the more interesting ones as well."
Production Timeline
Filming is currently underway in New York City. With a supposed release date of September 2026—only three months away—more concrete updates are expected soon, according to TechRadar.
