Macaulay Culkin's 'AHS' Character Has 'Crazy, Erotic Sex' with Kathy Bates

Here’s a detail we didn’t expect to hear today: Macaulay Culkin‘s American Horror Story character is going to have crazy, erotic sex with Kathy Bates‘ character for the upcoming season.

“I have always loved Macaulay Culkin‘s work,” showrunner Ryan Murphy told E! News. “I loved everything that he’s done, I love the stuff he did in Home Alone, I also loved the sort of the older, more recent stuff that he did. And he hasn’t worked in a while.”

“So, I have this very, very great insane part. And I asked to speak to him on the phone and he said OK,” he continued. “[When] I cast, I never let people read things, usually. I said, ‘OK, here’s the pitch.’ And I told them the character and I told him he has crazy, erotic sex with Kathy Bates and does other things. And he paused and he goes, ‘This sounds like the role I was born to play.’ So, he signed up right then and there.”

Kathy, 71, is a regular on American Horror Story, while this will be 31-year-old Macaulay‘s first stint on the show. The season’s theme has not been announced yet, but the core cast has!
