The actor has been cast in The Politician, Netflix’s Murphy-produced comedy series that snagged a two-season order in February.
Oscar winner Gwyneth Paltrow, Mad Men‘s January Jones and Horror Story vet Jessica Lange all will apparently co-star in the series, McDermott revealed.
The Politician follows a wealthy, politically driven Santa Barbarian played by Tony Award winner Ben Platt (Broadway’s Dear Evan Hansen).
Dylan McDermott and Ryan Murphy are reuniting, and they’re taking on something even scarier than American Horror Story‘s Murder House: the world of politics.
