Leslie Jordan might be keeping the world entertained with his incredible video updates on Instagram, but you’ll be pleased to know we’ll be seeing plenty more of the pint-sized TV icon after lockdown is over.
That’s because superstar producer Ryan Murphy – him of Glee, American Horror Story, Pose, American Crime Story, Feud and Hollywood fame – has revealed that he is currently penning a new TV series with former Will & Grace star Jordan in mind.
Taking to Instagram on Sunday (3 May), Murphy teased that he was working on a project for Jordan and another former AMerican Horror Story star Dylan McDermott.
“So yes it’s TRUE I am writing a project for national treasures Leslie Jordan and Dylan McDermott to star in together”, Murphy wrote as he shared a picture of the actors.
“Should it be a romance? A buddy comedy? A heist movie? All I know is Leslie is going to be fabulously wealthy in it, and Dylan will have a backstory as a former masseur”.
Wherever it’s going, we know it’s somewhere good.
Meanwhile, if you can’t wait for Leslie Jordan’s new TV vehicle to arrive, why not relive some of his greatest lockdown hits here.
