Following the success of “American Crime Story” revolving around the trial of O. J. Simpson and the assassination of Gianni Versace, TV fans are looking forward to seeing a new installment covering a new storyline. Despite the cancellation of a couple of potential arcs, FX Networks CEO John Landgraf promised that “American Crime Story” season 3 will happen.
The absence of definitive updates might have worried some fans that the production of anthology true crime series might no longer continue. Luckily, Landgraf briefly discussed what the future holds for “American Crime Story” season 3 at the latest Television Critics Association winter press tour.
Landgraf confirmed during TCA interviews that the writers for “American Crime Story” season 3 are continuously working. He also revealed that, at the moment, the network acquired rights to develop “three or four” stories and said these are all “in active development” with some of it already “in advanced stages.” “I think there are many more cycles of ‘American Crime Story’ to come and more of ‘American Horror Story,’” the TV exec added (via The Wrap).
It was previously reported that “American Crime Story” season 3 was supposed to cover Versace’s story. The second season was originally planned to revolve around the events of hurricane Katrina. However, Landgraf also confirmed at TCA earlier this year that they officially dropped the Katrina storyline leaving the “American Crime Story” season 3 arc still unknown. Landgraf told Deadline, “I’m very optimistic that we will have something in the next couple of years, and I’m optimistic that we will have multiple more cycles of that show.”
Looking from the previous release date schedules of the series, “next couple of years” sounds about right. The series premiered in 2016 and was followed by the second season in 2018. This might mean that “American Crime Story” season 3 will air sometime in the first quarter of 2020.
