American Horror Story - Season 4 - Jessica Lange explains why it's her last season

Nov 22, 2013

Share on Reddit
But Lange has confirmed that next year’s fourth season will be her last. “It ends up being a lot of time during the year being committed to something,” admits the actress. “I haven’t done that for a long time. It’s like doing a stage play between the rehearsal and the run. This is a 6-month commitment every year. That will be four years in a row. I want to have more time to myself I guess. Once it’s over and I have a full year ahead of me with nothing to do, who knows? It might not have been the best decision. But I think four years doing something is a sufficient amount of time.”

  1. Okay, that makes sense.

    But nooooooooooo, please don't go anywhere! I'm guessing Angela and/or Kathy will take over for her in season five.

  2. AHS will suffer badly without her. She made s1 for me and has remained strong ever since. Huge lose to the show :(

  3. There's still time for her to change her mind.

    And we're grateful for your amazing work (as I'm sure you'll be awesome too next season)

  5. I pretty much worship the ground Jessica Lange walks on ever since S2, so I'm personally devastated. But my reasons are selfish and I think she is right, if she wants time for herself, for her family or whatever, being the lead actress in a TV show is a bad idea. Besides, I'm sure she has other projects she would like to work on and that becomes close to impossible with AHS.
    Either way, I will miss her like crazy.

  6. She made the show the way it is,surely will be missed!

  7. Angela Bassett has been my favorite this season, I hope she fills Lange's shoes. To my surprise, I'm liking Emma Robert's performance this year, even though I'm not a fan of her.

  8. I never liked Emma Robert's performance, but she is really great in this show.

  9. So disappointing, she was truly the core of S2 and of Coven, too. I only hope that they get Frances Conroy to step into a larger role, or someone with similar presence, I think Frances Conroy can do even more for AHS than she already has. Plus we might be getting Connie back for next season, which will further fill the gap -- she was one of my favourite things about S1. At first I rolled my eyes at her but she ended up being the only person I didn't have reason to hate, so I'd be glad to see her back. I won't get my hopes up on Angela Bassett coming back but that'd be mega cool.

  10. I seem to be the only one but I'm finding this season quite bad already. I feel like I'm watching a show for girls.
    S4 can't be worse than this. That's my opinion, btw ;).

  11. The one I'm not liking this season is Taissa, her character is similar to the one in the first season.

  12. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

  13. omg this season is the best. better than the first and way better than the second

  14. I'm really gonna miss her on the show.

  15. It's not the best, nor better than the previous season. You just like
    it more. Which is what makes the very difference you don't seem to get.

    Still, there were much more interesting characters in Asylum. There'd be more horror, things going on, and suspense in just one episode than in what
    we've seen of Coven so far.

  16. I totally respect your opinion. But Coven is really weird with Kyle's mom and ... :P

    ReplyDelete
  17. Thanks, that's actually the part I hate the most. Kyle could've been so much more and I still can't believe he hasn't said a word since he well...died.

    ReplyDelete
  18. First about the Kyle and his mothers part..it's American HORROR Story. Molesting is a horror. Second, they aren't going to make the season about Kyle's character, its called Coven and he isn't a witch. Oh and he has said words, maybe you haven't been watching this season and that's why you don't like it....and about the article, I will be sad to see her go, but I honestly think she will be back.

  19. Wow. That has to be the most ridiculous answer I've ever read. I say
    that I don't like a specific element of the show and all you have to say
    is "you didn't watch the season, that's why you don't like it"? Jesus.
    Don't twist my words.
    I
    didn't say that Kyle had to be part of the Coven. I said that he
    could've been so much more. And yeah, if you consider mumbling and
    monosyllabic sentences as "talking", good for you.

    Coven => 3
    boring teen witches and one Supreme who annoys me with her "I don't want
    to get old and lose my powers" since the first episode; voodoo;
    fighting zombies; annoying couple trying to get a child of which the
    husband is the worst character ever.
    Asylum => Dr. Arthur Arden,
    possession, aliens, a mad psychiatrist, a double past/present
    storytelling, Bloody Face, that incredible Christmas episode, and so
    much more...

  20. Wow...get a life. You don't like the show obviously so stop watching and let the rest of us enjoy in peace titty baby. Lmao!

  21. Provocation, how mature of you.
    Anybody can comment, whether it's positive or negative. If you don't like it, there's nothing I can do for you. Don't like my comments? Don't read'em.

  22. Using big words you don't understand doesn't make you smart... go back to your hypocritical and contradictory comments, reread and peace out sauerkraut! :D

    ReplyDelete
  23. You know so much more than I do! I don't watch the show, I don't understand the words I'm using. You're obviously smarter than I am.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I guess we can at least hope for some guest appearances in the future? Surely that'd be less time consuming. Will be sad to see her go. Even if Fiona is one of the characters I am least enjoying this year, Lange's brilliant performances can't exactly be denied.

  25. when you put it that way :) but i liked Coven way more than Asylum cause I felt like asylum was getting boring after the first 6 episodes. plus I dont really like Fiona. I really like Madison and Delphine's acting, hope they stick around for more. I dont really care about the voodoo witch thingys or whatever they are. They should have made Madison make Kyle speak like a few words instead of them screwing each other but thats AHS for you... you never know.


    Plus: I know alot of people are going to hate me but I actually like Zoe. I liked Violet alot like she was my favorite AHS character now its converting to Zoe and Madison and Queenie

  26. No way! I thin she IS American Horror story...It would not be the same without her!
