FX gave the fans a treat when it announced that season 3 would release on 27th September 2020. FX was eying for a release date before the 2020 presidential elections, but as fate would have it, the show got delayed! In January 2020, we learned that the show had been postponed as the Production would take long and the filming was slated to begin on 21st March. You know what happened next!

Monika Lewinsky (the real one) is also involved with the show as a producer. Ryan Murphy said that this story should be told only by her. After a long dinner meeting with Monika Lewinsky, she understood that her involvement is essential in this work. Beanie Feldstein, known for Lady Bird and Booksmart, will play Monica Lewinsky. We will have Sarah Paulson as Linda Tripp, the woman who taped Lewinski’s confession to the affair. Clive Owen will play the role of Bill Clinton. Clinton was accused by the woman named Paula Jones, Annaleigh Ashford will take on that role. Billy Eichner is also on-board as Matt Drudge, the blogger who first reported the affair.
American Crime Story Season 3 Plot: What’s gonna happen in it?
American Crime Story brings the high profile cases of contemporary America to the audience in the form of a mini-series. After featuring the trial of O.J. Simpson and the assassination of Versace Gianni, it is official; season three will highlight the impeachment proceedings against Bill Clinton. The plot will be based on a book written by Jeffrey Toobin, A Vast Conspiracy. Murphy Stated that nobody should tell the story of Monica Lewinsky instead of her; it will be gross if someone did! This hints toward season three, dealing with the untold story and how it affected women. Impeachment: American Crime Story will also highlight the overlooked dimensions, and it will focus more on women who were the victims of the scandal rather than Clinton’s presidency.
