It looks like the casting news for FX Networks and Ryan Murphy's 'American' franchise (with American Sports Story & American Love Story being the newest additions and Studio 54: American Crime Story serving as the subject of the award-winning anthology series' fourth season) is rolling on.
Earlier today, we learned that Josh Andrés Rivera had been tapped to portray Aaron Hernandez in American Sports Story. Now, we're learning that Rivera will be joined by Gen V star Patrick Schwarzenegger in the role of Tim Tebow.
Charting the rise and fall of NFL superstar Hernandez, the limited series explores the connections of the disparate strands of his identity, his family, his career, his suicide, and their legacy in sports and American culture. A tight end for the New England Patriots, Hernandez would be convicted on April 15, 2015, of the 2013 killing of semipro football player Odin Lloyd – with Hernandez taking his own life in prison in 2017.
