'American Horror Story: Apocalypse': Ryan Murphy Posts on Lack of Trailer; Two New Teasers Released
While the wait for an official trailer for Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk's American Horror Story: Apocalypse may be a little rough on some (most) AHS fans out there, they can at least take heart about one thing: Murphy hears your cries and feels your pain – but relief is coming soon. Posting a pic of Evan Peters' Tate on the set of the eagerly-anticipated Murder House/Coven crossover, the series co-creator addressed AHS:A lack of a trailer by promising one is "coming" – and with the series set to return for its eighth season on Wednesday, September 12th, one would suspect it's coming soon (and don't forget to check out two new teasers below):
Just last week, Dylan McDermott posted a pic on his Instagram account of his Ben Harmon reunited with Peters' Tate on the set late last week"
Earlier, we were treated to a look at Emma Roberts' Madison Montgomery rockin' a feather duster on the bones of those buried under the Murder House gazebo (where McDermott's Ben Harmon used to hide the "secrets"); and a look at Peters-as-Tate returning to some old first-season stomping grounds:
Less than two days after FX confirmed Connie Britton (Nashville) and McDermott (The Practice) would be returning to their original season 1 roles for American Horror Story: Apocalypse, series co-creator Murphy gave us our first look at the pair's return to the scene of many crimes – meaning Britton's Vivien Harmon and McDermott's Ben Harmon will be playing a major role in what lies ahead:

Fans of American Horror Story were treated to some great news at this year's TCA summer press event: the horror anthology series had been renewed for a 10th season (FX Networks CEO John Landgraf: "He (Murphy) asked for a 10th season of American Horror Story which we were happy to give to him"); Jessica Lange would be reprising her Murder House role as Constance Langdon, appearing in the sixth episode – also marking Paulson's directorial debut on the show (Paulson: "I have the great pleasure of saying, yes, she (Lange) will be back").
