Ryan Murphy is pulling inspiration straight from the 2016 presidential election for the next season of American Horror Story.

During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, the prolific producer revealed that season seven of the FX anthology series will tackle the Nov. 8 election that saw Donald Trump defeat former first lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

The next season "is going to be about the election that we just went through, so I think that will be interesting for a lot of people," Murphy told Cohen while promoting his new FX anthology series, Feud.



When pressed for details from Cohen, particularly whether there will be a character based on President Trump, Murphy responded with a coy "Maybe."

AHS was renewed for two more seasons in January. Series mainstays Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters have already been confirmed to return. Season seven, Murphy also revealed Wednesday, begins shooting in June.

Murphy has been less and less forthcoming about recent seasons of AHS. For season six, 24 teasers touting different themes were created to keep viewers in the dark about the theme.

AHS is one of three anthology dramas Murphy has at FX. Feud, which launches its first season on March 5, centers on the rivalry between actresses Joan Crawford and Bette Davis. American Crime Story, which famously focused on O.J. Simpson's murder trial in season one, is set to tackle several more political topics in upcoming installments. Season two will look at Hurricane Katrina, and ACS producers have also optioned Jeffrey Toobin's book about the Monica Lewinsky scandal, A Vast Conspiracy: The Real Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought Down a President.

AHS wouldn't be the only series to address the most recent presidential election. The upcoming Good Wife spinoff, premiering Sunday, opens with Christine Baranski's character watching President Trump's inauguration. Black-ish discussed the surprising results of the election in a recent episode. South Park has also covered the election frequently.

As for series specifically depicting the president, Scandal famously featured a similar presidential candidate last season in Gregg Henry's character. Meanwhile, Gary Cole played a businessman-turned-politician loosely inspired by Trump in a twice-delayed episode of Law & Order: SVU that has yet to air.
