After 12 seasons of American Horror Story, you need to know how to reinvent yourself. To rekindle the public’s interest, Ryan Murphy focused on casting and one name in particular: Kim Kardashian. A major media figure, the star with 364 million followers on Instagram has what it takes to attract a whole new audience. Unfortunately, the actors’ strike that continues in Hollywood prevents him from promoting his first role on social media.
Because Kim Kardashian is an actress now. with delicateIn the new season of American Horror Story, she takes on her first feature film role as Siobhan Corbin, the perfect publicist for a movie star played by Emma Roberts. And even without promotion on the networks, the information has already spread to the point that Internet users are asking the following question: Is it really legal for Kim Kardashian to “take the place” of an established actress?
No need to prolong the suspense: the one we nicknamed “Kim K” is definitely the main quality of this first episode. If every season starts strong enough, this is not the case with Delicate, which tries to offer something new to this story of motherhood controlled by a harmful society. It’s impossible not to think of Rosemary’s Baby or even a David Cronenberg movie for its surgical world and its doctors in red coats, but when it comes to originality, it runs out of fuel.
Kim Kardashian and Emma Roberts in “American Horror Story.”
Emma Roberts, a series regular, is fulfilling her part of the contract. And if it’s too early to judge supporting characters, it’s hard to escape Kim Kardashian. His role is also secondary, but from the first episode, the writers have given him some spicy lines, which have an effect. “Bad day for you, good day for Hilary Swank– he tells his client. Phew.
Everything works for Kim Kardashian on screen. The budding actor delivers his lines with ease and proper charisma. It must be said that this role of a ruthless businessman suits him well, because he is quite close to his mother, Kris Jenner, who is known for her past as a manager who will stop at nothing.
We will have to wait for the new episodes to focus more on the story and its evolution. Despite many doubts, Kim Kardashian still has the credit for taking the first successful steps, and that’s not a bad thing.
