Gus Kenworthy Talks ‘AHS: 1984’ Role

“I just met Ryan through mutual friends and kind of just chatted and hit it off and told him that’s [acting] what I wanted to do, and when he was writing this season he texted me and said there was a role that he would love me to come in for. So I came in and auditioned for him, and then he told me it was mine if I wanted it, and I was like ‘of course I do'”

“I don’t even know my character’s name, I can’t really talk a whole lot about it, all that’s been announced so far is I’m going to be dating Emma Roberts on the show, so I’m pretty happy with that. I feel like, as a gay guy, that’s the closest I can get to like, being Emma Roberts.”

“There’s going to be an acting coach at the studio, he’s gonna link me up a little closer to the shooting date, and gonna just do some classes on my own.”

“It’s shooting here in LA.”

On if he’s met 1984 co-star Emma Roberts: “I actually haven’t, no.”

“I can’t say much. It’s gonna be good.”

AHS: 1984 is expected to air this September on FX.
