When will American Horror Story season ten be released?
While production on season ten was due to begin over a year ago, the cast and crew only began shooting in October of 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. It's not known whether filming has wrapped yet. Given that the cast have been sharing snaps from set as recently as this month, we think perhaps not.
As for when the series will land on FX for US viewers and Netflix from UK fans, we've got our fingers crossed for the Autumn! Previous seasons of the show have been released in the weeks leading up to Halloween and it seems likely that season ten could follow suit.
