Patrick Schwarzenegger Lands “Scream Queens” Gig

One Word: Dayum.

If the cast of FOX’s highly anticipated horror-comedy couldn’t get any more hotter, Scream Queens creator Ryan Murphy tweeted exciting news about a new addition to the series.

Happy to announce that PATRICK SCHWARZENEGGER has joined the cast of SCREAM QUEENS, Murphy shared on social media.

Drew Van Acker Patrick Schwarzenegger’s character information is being kept under wraps, however, several outlets have confirmed that his character will have relative ties to an existing character.

Schwarzenneger, a model and actor, will first appear on the anthology series some time in November.

The girls of Kappa House are dying for new pledges. SCREAM QUEENS is a new killer comedy-horror series from Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan, the Emmy- and Golden Globe Award-winning executive producers of GLEE and “American Horror Story.” Wallace University is rocked by a string of murders. Kappa House, the most sought-after sorority for pledges, is ruled with an iron fist (in a pink glove) by its Queen Bitch, CHANEL OBERLIN (Emma Roberts, “American Horror Story: Freak Show,” “Scream 4”). But when anti-Kappa DEAN MUNSCH (Jamie Lee Curtis, “Halloween,” “A Fish Called Wanda,” “True Lies”) decrees that sorority pledging must be open to all students, and not just the school’s silver-spooned elite, all hell is about to break loose, as a devil-clad killer begins wreaking havoc, claiming one victim, one episode at a time. Part black comedy, part slasher flick, SCREAM QUEENS is a modern take on the classic whodunit, in which every character has a motive for murder…or could easily be the next blood-soaked casualty.

Scream Queens premieres Tuesday, September 22, at 8pm on FOX.
