Watch any Ryan Murphy series and you’ll be treated to an array of A-list stars either in regular, recurring or guest roles. There was Lady Gaga in American Horror Story, Ricky Martin in American Crime Story, Whoopi Goldberg on Glee, to mention a few.

The Politician is no different. Apart from Jessica Lange (who already appears in several seasons of American Horror Story), Murphy’s producing partner Brad Falchuk managed to convince wife Gwyneth Paltrow to come on board. She plays Georgina, the wealthy stay-at-home mum to the main character Payton Hobart played by Ben Platt.
