Sarah Paulson will play film actress Geraldine Page in Ryan Murphy’s new FX series Feud.

What we have for you today is further evidence that Sarah Paulson may be secretly cloning herself in order to find the time to appear in as many different Ryan Murphy shows as possible.

Excited to announce Sarah Paulson will be playing legendary Oscar-winner Geraldine Page in FEUD. The first season will focus on the contentious relationship between Joan Crawford (Jessica Lange) and Bette Davis (Susan Sarandon) as they worked together on What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story star joins the recently-announced Oscar victor Catherine Zeta-Jones, who will portray Olivia de Havilland, in her first major TV role in years. Catherine Zeta-Jones is tapped to portray Oscar-winning actress Olivia de Havilland. She stamped out her cigarette, grabbed the hand of the stage manager … then soared calmly onstage with that incomparable Crawford composure.

Paulson is now in a relationship with Emmy winning actress Holland Taylor. She admitted she’ll likely prepare a speech, just in case they call her name on September 18.

In an interview a year ago with Variety, Paulson said, “There’s nothing he could ask me to do that I would say no to”.
