American Crime Story: The People Vs. O.J. Simpson

American Crime Story: The People vs. O. J. Simpson is a look at the Simpson trial told from the perspective of the lawyers that explores the chaotic behind-the-scenes dealings and maneuvering on both sides of the court, and how a combination of prosecution confidence, defense wiliness, and the LAPD’s history with the city’s black community gave a jury what it needed: reasonable doubt.

Second Season

In progress is the second season of American Crime Story, which is about the aftermath of the natural disaster, Hurricane Katrina. The season will focus on, quote, "To follow a group of six to eight people in an attempt to examine all sides of the tragedy, from the Superdome to the hospital to those who were put on buses and dropped off with babies who were forced to wear trash bags for multiple days."

Third Season

In early developmental stages is the third season of American Crime Story, which centres on the murder of Gianni Versace, specifically the events leading to it, and the aftermath. Lady Gaga is rumoured to portray Donatella Versace in this season.
