Miss her?
Emma Roberts is officially back on American Horror Story, b--ches! Creator Ryan Murphy spilled the good news on Instagram on Tuesday, posting a photo of the fan-favorite on the set of American Horror Story: Cult, the FX franchise's seventh installment.
"Look who showed up on the set of Cult looking glamorous and ready for action," Murphy captioned the pic of Roberts holding a knife. (Sadly, there were no details about who she is playing and how many episodes she will appear in.)
Roberts previously starred in the third season, Coven, as Madison Montgomery, and the fourth season, Freak Show, as Maggie, before starring in Scream Queens, Murphy's campy horror show for Fox.
The 26-year-old actress re-posted the pic, adding the caption, "I've joined #ahscult will you?"
Roberts returns to the AHS for Cult, which will also star Evan Peters, her real-life beau, and fellow returning franchise members Sarah Paulson, Cheyenne Jackson, Frances Conroy, Mare Winningham, and Adina Porter. AHS newbies will include Roberts' Scream Queens co-star Billie Lourd, Billy Eichner, Colton Haynes, Leslie Grossman, and Lena Dunham in her first post-Girls role.
While the season has been shrouded in mystery, Murphy has started revealing some information, including that the 11-episode season will be set in Michigan.
He had previously revealed it takes place the night of the 2016 presidential election. The co-creator previously told E! News it would be a "very, very scary" modern story, yet "fun" and "topical."
The Title
The title for season seven is American Horror Story: Cult, but perhaps it should be Cults, because the season will explore multiple cults throughout history, focusing on a new one that arises after the results of the 2016 election.
The Setting
Murphy revealed the 11-episode season will be set in Michigan. He previously revealed it takes place the night of the 2016 presidential election. The co-creator previously told E! News it would be a "very, very scary" modern story, yet "fun" and "topical."
Evan Peters Returns
And it's his busiest season yet! He'll be playing the leader of the main cult that rises up after the 2016 election, as well as five other cult leaders from history, including Charles Manson, David Koresh, Andy Warhol, and Jim Jones, according to Ryan Murphy.
Peters as Warhol
Speaking of Peters' turn as the famed pop artist Andy Warhol, creator Ryan Murphy shared an Instagram photo of the actor in his costume on Thursday, Oct. 5, and the resemblance is damn near uncanny. "Evan Peters or Andy Warhol?" Murphy asked. Good question.
Sarah Paulson Is Obviously Back
Murphy quickly revealed Sarah Paulson would be in season seven, which is generally a forgone conclusion. She's one of the leads. After he announced the title, Murphy revealed Paulson's character is named Ally. She's married to Allison Pill's character Ivy, and she does not take well to the results of the 2016 election.
Alison Pill
Alison Pill, a newcomer to the cast, stars as Ivy Mayfair-Richards, the wife of Sarah Paulson's Ally Mayfair-Richards, with whom she owns a restaurant.
Cheyenne Jackson
AHS veteran Cheyenne Jackson is Dr. Rudy Vincent, a therapist.
Billy Eichner
Known for comedies Parks and Recreation, Difficult People and his own show, Billy on the Street, Billy Eichner is going dramatic for the new season of AHS. He'll appear as Harrison Wilton, a neighbor of Sarah Paulson's character.
Billie Lourd
Scream Queens star jumps to AHS as Winter Anderson, the new nanny of Sarah Paulson and Allison Pill's characters.
Colton Haynes
Teen Wolf and Scream Queens veteran Colton Haynes will appear in AHS: Cult as Detective Samuels.
Leslie Grossman joins the cast
Leslie Grossman, who worked with Murphy on Popular, re-teams with the creator for AHS: Cult. "My friend Leslie Grossman is joining this season of American Horror Story. One of the funniest and most talented ladies I know. Congrats Ms Leslie G," Murphy posted on Instagram. She plays one of Ally and Ivy's neighbors.
Lena Dunham will guest star
Lena Dunham will guest star in AHS: Cult, making it her first TV gig since Girls wrapped up. Murphy tweeted about her involvement, saying, "Thrilled that my talented friend Lena Dunham is joining the AMERICAN HORROR STORY family. Always wanted to work together, and now we r!"
Dunham will appear in episode seven as Valerie Solanas, the woman who tried to shoot Andy Warhol.
Adina Porter is back
American Horror Story: Roanoke breakout Adina Porter is back in the fold, playing a news reporter.
Emma Roberts
Bet you thought you'd seen the last of her, but of course you haven't Roberts will be back as news reporter Serena Belinda, who gets promoted over Adina Porter's character "simply because she's much more superficial and willing to do what it takes to survive," according to Murphy.
Frances Conroy Returns
AHS veteran Frances Conroy will be back in some form or another. She previously appeared in seasons one, two, three, four and six and played everything from a cannibal hillbilly to the Angel of Death to the iconic Myrtle Snow.
Mare Winningham Returns
Mare Winningham, a veteran of AHS: Coven, Freak Show and Hotel, will be back in some form or another. Murphy revealed her involvement on Twitter and teased there will be more familiar faces back in the fold as well.
Twisty's Also Back Whether We Want Him or Not
Did you miss the homicidal clown played by John Carroll Lynch on Freak Show? No? Too bad. Twisty's presence will clearly be felt, as evidenced by all those clowns. Murphy also revealed a behind-the-scenes photo of a Twisty comic book.
No Gaga
Lady Gaga, who starred in American Horror Story: Hotel and appeared in American Horror story: Roanoke, will not be in season seven.
Jessica Lange is missed
OK, this isn't exactly about American Horror Story: Cult, but Sarah Paulson was asked by a fan on Twitter if she missed Jessica Lange, her costar for the first four seasons. And Paulson's answer? It's going to break your heart: "More than I can say," she responded. No, you're crying.
FX has yet to respond to request for comment on Roberts' casting.
AHS: Cult premieres Tuesday, Sept. 5 at 10 p.m. on FX.
