Although FX already has three dramas, American Horror Story, American Crime Story and Feud, Ryan Murphy has not stopped. He has started filming the fourth drama Pose for FX, and has been officially booked by FX for the first season of 8 episodes (scheduled to be broadcast in the summer of 2018). Ryan Murphy will write and direct the first episode, and will be a producer with Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson. Pose, which is said to be a dance musical, will simultaneously tell several fragments of life and society in New York in the 1980s, including the emergence of the Trump era, the society and literature of the downtown area, and LGBT culture. Evan Peters and Kate Mara play Stan and Patty, couples from New Jersey, who are trapped in the colorful and complicated New York in the 1980s. James Van Der Beek plays Matt, the financial leader, for whom Peters works, and Charlayne Woodard plays a 50-year-old black character (the role was originally played by Tatiana Maslany, but was later recast and the setting was modified).
