Cheyenne Jackson Joins 'American Horror Story' Season 6 Cast
READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Hollywood hunk Cheyenne Jackson jumped on Twitter Monday to confirm that he will join the upcoming season of "American Horror Story."
Jackson, who played fashion designer and hotelier Will Drake on "AHS: Hotel" last year, responded to a tweet from Michael Musto, who profiled the actor for Out magazine.
The theme for "AHS" Season 6 has yet been revealed, but the FX anthology series' Facebook page changed profile photos this week to an eerie image of the number six.
Deadline notes series creator Ryan Murphy discussed the theme at the Television Critics Association in March.
"The interesting thing about the next season is that we've been working on two ideas at once, which we've never done," Murphy said.
FX president John Landgraf also commented on the show, saying the upcoming season, likely to air this fall, will be "principally set in the present", with a dual timeline in "echoes of the past."
Jackson joins Lady Gaga, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, Denis O'Hare, Sarah Paulson, Finn Wittrock, Wes Bentley and Matt Bomer for "AHS" Season 6. Leslie Jordan, who appeared in "AHS: Coven," recently announced he's be on the next season.
Jessica Lange, who starred in the first five seasons of "AHS," recently said she has no plans on returning as a leading lady. However, she'll team up with Murphy again for a new FX anthology called "Feud," where she'll play Joan Crawford.
