Jessica Lange told a PaleyFest panel on Oct. 12 that FX was “too f—ing cheap” for not providing cars or drivers to the American Horror Story cast during the series’ third season filming in New Orleans. She said the actors had to drive themselves home around 4 a.m.–5 a.m., parking on streets in the French Quarter and finding their way back.
Lange made the comments alongside co‑star Sarah Paulson, who laughed in agreement. The actress added that the issue remains a “bone of contention” for her. She also noted her return to the show for season 13, saying the chance to reprise four of her iconic characters motivated her comeback.
