If you're still reeling from the ending of American Horror Story [1]'s last season, sharpen up folks! Season nine is a confirmed go [2], and there are so many details we need to know before it premieres. Perhaps most glaringly, we still don't know what the theme for the upcoming season will be — though we have some ideas [3]. Luckily, the powers that be (aka creator Ryan Murphy) decided to smile on us and reveal a couple of the actors we'll be seeing in season nine. Of course we expect to see some AHS alums [4], but we're also excited to meet some new stars take their moment to shine, like last season's breakout star, Cody Fern [5]. See who is officially signed up for the upcoming season ahead!
Emma Roberts
The AHS vet has been confirmed to return [7] in season nine, but no word yet on who she'll be playing.
Gus Kenworthy
Murphy revealed the Olympic medalist was joining the AHS family on his Instagram page [8], Feb. 6. The caption of the photo reveals that Kenworthy will be portraying the boyfriend of Roberts' character.
