Pop star and actress Ariana Grande will no longer appear in the 13th season of American Horror Story due to scheduling conflicts with her Eternal Sunshine Tour, though she remains set to star in the upcoming film Focker-in-Law.
Ariana Grande has successfully balanced her status as a global pop music icon with an increasingly prominent acting career that traces back to her roots as a Nickelodeon star on shows such as Victorious and Sam and Cat.
While her musical pursuits have occupied much of her time over the last several years, her recent transition back to acting has been met with critical acclaim, particularly her portrayal of Galinda/Glinda in the cinematic adaptation of Wicked and its follow-up, Wicked: For Good. Fans who were hoping to see her return to television in a substantial role, however, will have to wait a little longer.
It was recently confirmed that Grande will not be appearing in the highly anticipated 13th season of the hit horror anthology series American Horror Story, a project that would have reunited her with creator Ryan Murphy after her previous stint on his slasher comedy Scream Queens. The logistical challenge of balancing her current Eternal Sunshine Tour with the demanding production schedule of a television series proved to be an insurmountable obstacle for the artist.
According to industry reports, the star opted to withdraw from the production before filming for the season officially commenced. It remains unclear at this stage whether the producers intend to find another performer to inhabit the role originally designated for Grande or if the character will be removed from the script entirely to streamline the narrative of the upcoming season.
Despite her departure from the horror anthology, the 13th season of American Horror Story promises to be a massive event for fans of the franchise. Ryan Murphy is orchestrating a nostalgic return, bringing together a vast ensemble cast featuring iconic performers from throughout the show's history.
Viewers can expect to see the return of fan-favorite characters played by veterans such as John Carroll Lynch as Twisty the Clown, Angela Bassett as Marie Laveau, and Emma Roberts and Gabourey Sidibe returning as their respective witch characters from the Coven era. Furthermore, the season will feature series staples including Sarah Paulson, Jessica Lange, Kathy Bates, and John Waters, ensuring that the milestone 13th installment is packed with familiar faces.
The season is slated to debut on September 24 on FX and Hulu, maintaining the legacy of a franchise that has terrified audiences for over a decade. Meanwhile, Ariana Grande is not stepping away from the silver screen entirely; she has secured a significant role in the upcoming comedic sequel Focker-in-Law. In this film, she is set to share the screen with cinematic heavyweights including Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller.
Playing the role of an FBI negotiator who is engaged to marry Henry Focker, portrayed by Skyler Gisondo, Grande continues to prove her versatility as an entertainer. Focker-in-Law is scheduled for a theatrical release on November 25, marking a major highlight in her current career trajectory as she navigates both massive music tours and high-profile Hollywood projects with ease and professional dedication
