Murphy also revealed that in season two, the series will jump from 1980s to 1990s. "We've come up with this great role for Patti LuPone. She loves the show and we wrote this part and she said, 'Yes, I want to do it,' so she's coming to play with us in a couple weeks," Murphy said while moderating the "Pose" panel at PaleyFest.

He added that the lead actor of the show, MJ Rodriguez, will share many scenes with the double Grammy and double Tony winner star.
