In 2026, the 13th season of the world-renowned TV series American Horror Story will hit screens — and this time, fans can expect a true galaxy of stars. Joining the cast alongside the show’s veteran actors is none other than pop icon Ariana Grande.
The show’s creator, writer, and producer Ryan Murphy is known for filling each season of his anthology with major celebrity names — from Kim Kardashian and Cara Delevingne to Stevie Nicks, Lady Gaga, and Matt Bomer. Now, Ariana is stepping into Murphy’s twisted universe of horror.
This isn’t Grande’s first collaboration with Murphy. She previously appeared as “Chanel #2” in his cult horror-comedy series Scream Queens, so returning to Murphy’s dark and eccentric world feels more like coming home than venturing into the unknown.
The new season will also bring back some of the most beloved AHS veterans, including Emma Roberts, Evan Peters, Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Kathy Bates, and Billie Lourd. Many of them have previously shared the screen with Ariana on various sets, ensuring familiar chemistry and heightened anticipation among fans.
Adding an extra layer of intrigue, Roberts and her ex-boyfriend Evan Peters will appear together again — years after their real-life breakup, which once made headlines. But Emma has long since moved on, now married and raising a child.
Ariana and Emma are longtime friends who first worked together on Scream Queens. Back then, their on-screen screams sparked laughter — but this time, those same screams may channel pure terror and supernatural energy.
Ryan Murphy has also teased the possible return of the witches from the fan-favorite Coven season. Whether that promise will come true in Season 13 remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: if Madison Montgomery (played by Emma Roberts) and Ariana’s new character unite on screen, it could become one of the most powerful and talked-about moments in American Horror Story history.
