FX CEO John Landgraf tells THR that the network didn't feel like they had the material right" for the second season of the Ryan Murphy-produced anthology.

FX's efforts to tell the story of Prince Charles and Princess Diana is no longer happening. "As far as I know, it's not active right now," FX CEO John Landgraf told The Hollywood Reporter when asked about the status of the second season of the anthology from Ryan Murphy. Season two was picked up in February 2017, with the cable network announcing it would air in season two and explore topics including power, glamour, celebrity and media scrutiny.

"We did [have it cast] but we decided we didn't feel we had the material right and decided not to move forward with it," Landgraf told THR. Murphy was poised to return as showrunner on season two and was set to co-write the season with Jon Robin Baitz (Brothers & Sisters, The Slap). Charles and Diana would have reteamed Murphy and Baitz, who collaborated on the since-stalled American Crime Story: Katrina, which was slated to be the second and now third season of fellow FX anthology American Crime Story. Feud: Bette and Joan stars Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon were poised to return as executive producers. "Having a show called Feud is interesting because ... feuds are about pain," Murphy said in April 2017. "So, Charles and Diana’s story literally begins with the filing of the divorce papers. And it’s about that pain, the dissolving of a fairy tale, particularly for Diana. It starts with the filing of divorce papers and takes you up until her death."
