‘American Horror Story: Freak Show’ spoilers: When will ‘White Collar’s’ Matt Bomer appear?

“American Horror Story: Freak Show” is more than just a show with cool ideas, and with a giant cast of great regulars. There are also some extremely memorable guest stars who will be stopping by!

One of these particular people will be “White Collar” and “The Normal Heart” star Matt Bomer, who was convinced by Ryan Murphy to come on for a one-episode gig later this season. According to TVLine, Bomer will surface during the fifth episode of the season, and will share time with Michael Chilkis (who plays an intimidating strongman) and Finn Wittrock, who was in “The Normal Heart” with him.

Murphy also sold the role to Bomer by saying that his character is really “f****d up,” and therefore different in many ways to anything that he has done as of late.

Bomer is not the only high-profile guest who could be coming up this season. Murphy has also been talking with Neil Patrick Harris about a guest role, which could be coming up near the end of the season. The appeal of these gigs is mostly to continue to get great actors to stop by on the show, and to give you something further to look forward to. We don’t feel like “American Horror Story” necessarily needs them in order to be a success, but we also know at the same time that it certainly does not hurt that they are around.

Tonight, we will have a full review for the big premiere, so be sure to be on the lookout for that along with teases for what is coming up next.
