The new season follows the murder of fashion designer Versace and the manhunt for serial murderer Cunanan, who killed Versace on the front steps of his Miami Beach home. The media frenzy surrounding the murder created a climate of fear, anger, and mistrust throughout the Miami, Florida area for the next eight days. Cunanan eventually committed suicide and his body was discovered on a house boat eight days later.

The featurette shows the different actors talking about the character and the environment that was created from the murder. The series is coming off the celebrated first season, The People vs O.J. Simpson, which starred Cuba Gooding Jr., Sarah Paulson, Courtney B. Vance, and John Travolta.

American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace is set to premiere on FX on January 17th, 2018.
