“We’re trying to talk about a crime within a social idea. Versace, who was [Andrew Cunanan’s] last victim, did not have to die.

The instalment will delve into the 1997 murder of legendary fashion designer Gianni Versace beginning with Versace’s murder. A sweeping, orchestrated opening nine minutes take place largely inside Versace’s Miami Beach home.

“He was an important cultural figure; he lived outrageously and dangerously… And his life was opera,” the executive producer explained of the choice. “The assassination was tough to shoot and we shot exactly on the step where he died,” Murphy explained.

Edgar Ramirez, Darren Criss and Penélope Cruz are all set to star in key roles, while Max Greenfield and Ricky Martin will appear in supporting roles. Season seven of ‘American Horror Story: Cult’ premieres in India on Star World Premiere HD in October.
