In a video shared on Halloween, Ryan Murphy confirmed the cast for the upcoming season of the series, expected to premiere in 2026. The cast of AHS13 includes Ariana Grande, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Angela Bassett, Kathy Bates, Emma Roberts, Billie Lourd, Gabourey Sidibe, Leslie Grossman, and Jessica Lange. “Surprise b*tch, . I bet you thought you’d seen the last of me,” read a quote in the teaser. The quote was delivered by Emma Roberts’ character, Madison Montgomery, from the American Horror Story: Coven season. The cast announced for Season 13 are all actors who have worked in the Ryan Murphy universe before. Grande starred in the satirical slasher series Scream Queens, playing Chanel #2. AHS13 will reunite Grande with her co-stars Emma Roberts and Billie Lourd, who played Chanel Oberlin and Chanel #3, respectively. Jessica Lange’s return to AHS comes after she said earlier this year she would not return to the franchise. While appearing at the Glasgow Film Festival for the premiere of Long Day’s Journey Into Night, an Irish radio station asked her if she would be returning to the horror series. “Oh Christ, no,” Lange said. “I mean, I haven’t done it for more than 10 years, 12 years, so, no, I’m not doing it.” Lange has a long history with the American Horror Story franchise. She was part of the inaugural season in 2011, which was retroactively dubbed Murder House. Lange played the role of intrusive neighbor Constance Langdon in Season 1 of the FX drama. Roberts is a frequent collaborator with Murphy in the AHS universe, having recently starred in Delicate. She had previously appeared in Freak Show, Cult, Apocalypse, and 1984. Similarly, Peters and Paulson have played different characters in AHS, dating back to the original season, Murder House. They both would return for Asylum, Coven, Freak Show, Hotel, Roanoke, Cult, Apocalypse, and Double Feature. Angela Bassett, who co-produces 9-1-1 with Murphy, returns to the AHS franchise for Season 13. She joined the anthology series in Coven, playing the role of Marie Laveau. Bassett would return for Freak Show, Hotel, Roanoke, and reprise her Coven role in Apocalypse.

https://www.moderndrummer.com/2025/10/jack-dejohnette-legendary-jazz-drummer-dies-at-83/ The jazz world bids farewell to Jack DeJohnette, one of its most influential drummers, who has passed away at the age of 83. His family announced the news on October 27, stating that he “died peacefully at Kingston Hospital in New York, surrounded by his wife, family, and close friends”. Reports confirmed the cause as congestive heart failure. DeJohnette, honored as an NEA Jazz Master in 2012 (the highest recognition for jazz artists in the United States) leaves behind a legacy that reshaped modern drumming. A Revolutionary Approach to the Drum Set Jack DeJohnette was celebrated as a rhythmic architect of modern jazz, blending technical mastery with bold creativity. He developed what he called a “multidirectional” style, distributing time and accents across the entire kit instead of relying solely on the ride cymbal. This gave his playing a fluid, earthy, and elastic quality, instantly recognizable to anyone who heard him. Inspired by pioneers such as Roy Haynes and Rashied Ali, DeJohnette expanded the possibilities of the drum set and redefined its role in jazz ensembles. Originally trained as a pianist, DeJohnette often said he approached the drums as if improvising on a piano: every strike a chord, every silence a breath. His drumming wasn’t just about keeping time, it was about conversing, pushing, and inspiring the musicians around him. Critics often described his sound as a mix of precision, risk, and lyricism, turning rhythm into a melodic dialogue. Six Decades with the Greats of Jazz Over more than six decades, Jack DeJohnette performed with nearly every major figure in modern jazz. Born in Chicago in 1942, he rose to prominence in the 1960s with John Coltrane and gained worldwide recognition as a member of Charles Lloyd’s quartet. In 1969, he joined Miles Davis, playing on the landmark album Bitches Brew and becoming a central force in the creation of jazz fusion. His drumming on Bitches Brew, Live-Evil, and A Tribute to Jack Johnson pushed Davis’s music into bold new territory. Throughout the 1970s and beyond, DeJohnette continued to explore new horizons. He led his own groups, collaborated with artists like Freddie Hubbard, Joe Henderson, Michael Brecker, and in 1983 began a historic three-decade run with the Keith Jarrett Standards Trio alongside Jarrett and bassist Gary Peacock. He also briefly played with Bill Evans in 1968, further proving his versatility in acoustic trio settings. In total, he appeared on hundreds of recordings, both as a leader and collaborator, leaving an imprint on every project. He earned two Grammy Awards and countless honors, cementing his place as one of the most respected drummers in history. Recognition and Connection with Modern Drummer DeJohnette’s influence was deeply celebrated in the drumming community. In 2007, he was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame, recognizing his lasting contributions to the instrument. Remarkably, he appeared on the magazine’s cover five times in solo features, spanning four decades: April 1983 – his first cover story, highlighting his innovations of the era. October 1989 – honoring his prolific 1980s work. June 1995 – recognizing his evolving artistry in the 1990s. October 2003 – celebrating more than 40 years of groundbreaking contributions. October 2017 – a tribute to his continued influence well into the 21st century. Beyond these five solo covers, DeJohnette was also part of a landmark Modern Drummer issue in June 2012, which presented the “Historic Jazz Summit.” That edition featured Roy Haynes, Jack DeJohnette, and Terri Lyne Carrington together on the cover. A Lasting Legacy Jack DeJohnette’s passing marks the loss of a true master of rhythm, but his legacy endures through his recordings, his innovations, and the countless drummers he inspired. His multidirectional style, his gift for musical conversation, and his unending curiosity pushed the drum set into new dimensions. As his family expressed in their statement, “his legacy will live on.” And indeed, every cymbal crash and every flowing groove played by generations to come will echo the genius of Jack DeJohnette.

https://www.tvline.com/2009585/prunella-scales-dead-cause-of-death-fawlty-towers-sybil-obituary/ Prunella Scales, best known to TV audiences for her turn as hotel manager Sybil Fawlty on the BBC classic "Fawlty Towers," died Monday at the age of 93. Though a specific cause of death has not been disclosed, Scales had been diagnosed with vascular dementia in 2013. "Our darling mother Prunella Scales died peacefully at home in London yesterday," her sons Samuel and Joseph said in a statement to the PA News agency. "Although dementia forced her retirement from a remarkable acting career of nearly 70 years, she continued to live at home and was watching 'Fawlty Towers' the day before she died.... We would like to thank all those who gave Pru such wonderful care at the end of her life. Her last days were comfortable, contented and surrounded by love." Early career credits included the 1960s sitcom "The Marriage Lines" and the anthology series "Seven of One." But Scales was most associated with her role as Sybil, the long-suffering wife of John Cleese's Basil, on "Fawlty Towers," which ran for two seasons (12 episodes) between 1975 and 1979. She later portrayed Queen Elizabeth II in the 1991 TV-movie "A Question of Attribution," earning a BAFTA nomination for Best Actress. Scales was married to actor Timothy West for 61 years, until his death last November. Together, they led the first 10 seasons of the Channel 4 docuseries "Great Canal Journeys" (2014–2019). She is survived by her two sons, one stepdaughter, seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
