“Kathy Bates is running the Hotel. #AHSSeason5” Murphy’s Twitter post reads.
Although it hasn’t yet been disclosed as to what the 66-year-old award-winning star will be in AHS: Hotel, speculations drawn out from Murphy’s tweet indicated that Bates could be the hotel’s manager.
Bates has appeared back in “American Horror Story: Coven” as well as on “American Horror Story: Freak Show” where she played the character of a bearded lady named Ethel Darling.
Speaking to Us Weekly on their March 17 news edition, Bates expressed how open she is to the idea of returning to the FX series.
“I’m keeping my fingers crossed,” Bates said.
As with the news about the pop icon Lady Gaga joining the AHS family, Bates added that she would “love to work” with the singer.
“I’m a big fan of hers, my jaw dropped when I saw her on the Oscars,” she meanwhile told E! News. “I’ve just decided I have to put her picture up in front of the treadmill.”
Other than Bates, and Lady Gaga, the new series will also feature the acts of Wes Bentley, Matt Bomer, and Cheyenne Jackson in various major roles.
Filming for “American Horror Story: Hotel” is slated to commence this summer and will premiere on television October 2015.
