American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez episode guide and more so you don’t miss out!
By Sandy C.
Ryan Murphy’s American Story franchise is about to grow with the premiere of American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez tonight on FX. Needless to say, you are not going to want to miss the big two-episode premiere (or any of the upcoming chapters, if we’re being honest). But with so much TV, things can get confusing, but we’re here to help!
American Sports Story is FX’s latest anthology series and the fourth in Murphy’s American Story franchise, joining American Horror Story, American Crime Story, and American Horror Stories (plural).
As the title suggests, each season of the series will detail the story or an athlete, with the upcoming first season focusing on the rise and fall of Aaron Hernadez. The former NFL player is portrayed by Josh Andres Rivera. The series also stars Lindsay Mendez as Tanya Singleton, Tony Yazbeck as Urban Meyer, and Jake Cannavale as Chris, among others.
