Premise

This causes them all to vow to ruin his life in revenge.[1]

Development

FX renewed the Feud series for a second season in February 2017, with Ryan Murphy and Jon Robin Baitz attached as writers, with an initial focus on the relationship between Charles, Prince of Wales and Diana, Princess of Wales.[9]

By April 2022, the focus had shifted onto Truman Capote and his tempestuous relationship with New York high society with Gus Van Sant on board to direct and Naomi Watts attached to star.[2]

Baitz adapted the bestselling book Capote's Women by Laurence Leamer for the series. Executive producers on the series include Murphy, Alexis Martin Woodall, Baitz, Van Sant, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, Watts, Eric Kovtun, and Scott Robertson.[10]

It was the last project of Treat Williams before his death in 2023.

In August 2022, Tom Hollander was cast as Truman Capote with the cast also including Diane Lane and Calista Flockhart.[11] In September 2022, Demi Moore joined the cast.[12]

Filming

Filming began in New York in the autumn of 2022.[13]

The season is expected to premiere its first two episodes on January 31, 2024, with episodes available on Hulu the following day. In many international territories the series is going to be available on Disney+ (via Star) and in Latin America the series is going to be available on Star+.[14]
