'Katrina: American Crime Story' Writers Room is Active, EP Teases Second Season
Following the enormous success of The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, Ryan Murphy's Katrina: American Crime Story is off and rolling in the writers room according to executive producer Brad Simpson.
“Yes, you will have famous people, and also the people who weren’t famous during Katrina,” Simpson said. “Looking at it, thematically, it will be incredible different” than the OJ project, calling ACS a franchise that “morphs based on the crime.”
“It’s going to be about two things: the intensity of what it was like to be on the ground in that pressure cooker and also the bigger crime,” he said. Katrina "was something predictable we weren't prepared for, even though we knew it was going to happen."
Regarding a rumoured epilogue to the O.J. trial story, Simpson was adamant that "I think the case is closed for us on OJ."
