Following three back-to-back long-running series, Gilmore Girls, The Good Wife and The Resident, Matt Czuchry is segueing to another veteran drama, FX’s American Horror Story.
While rumored for awhile, Czuchry’s casting was never confirmed until the actor was recently snapped filming scenes for the upcoming 12th season of the popular anthology franchise.
According to sources, Czuchry plays the male lead opposite Emma Roberts, whose involvement was announced officially two weeks ago. I hear the two play husband and wife.
