Naomi Watts, Paul Kelly Join Sarah Pidgeon in Ryan Murphy’s ‘American Love Story’ Spinoff

It appears that Ryan Murphy is said to have discovered the real-life counterparts of John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy for his upcoming anthology series, “American Love Story,” on FX.

On his Instagram account, renowned pop culture writer Evan Ross Katz shared that Naomi Watts has been cast as Jackie Kennedy, while newcomer Paul Kelly will portray her son, John F. Kennedy. Previously, it was announced that Sarah Pidgeon would play Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy.

The upcoming series, titled American Love Story, is set to delve into the thrilling romance and marriage of John F. Kennedy Jr. and Bessette-Kennedy.
