Angela Bassett Is Not Returning for ‘American Horror Story: Apocalypse’!!
A lot of people are returning for Season 8 of American Horror Story, a crossover of season 3’s Coven and season 1’s Murder House. Sadly Angela Bassett‘s Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau will not be one of them. I was such a huge fan of her character. Really sad to hear she won’t be returning for this. Coven was Angela Bassett’s first time working on AHS and with Ryan Murphy, she even had a Emmy nomination for her role. She also starred in Freak Show, Hotel, and Roanoke. Angela is returning to season 2 of Murphy’s 9-1-1, where she plays LAPD patrol sergeant Athena Grant.
Angela Bassett told US Magazine: “She’s very special to my heart. We got to shoot in New Orleans which is beautiful, that beautiful decay of a city. It was scary; it was funny; it was risqué; it was intriguing; it was historical,” “You get to work with the great Kathy Bates and Jessica Lange and Sarah [Paulson], Gabby [Sidibe], just on and on and on. So it was really special, and it was the beginning of it all, beginning of me joining a family.” “I’m not in Horror Story. I’m not, not unless they get some brilliant idea. I love Coven though.”
