"[Adam] is a sexy guy, so he needs to play a sexy guy-but the guy that is different than who you think he would play," American Horror Story's Ryan Murphy said at the TV Academy show, according to E Online.
"The second season is fun, sexy and baroque. It has a lot of meat to it; it's a really gritty part. He's with a girl, and they play characters called The Lovers."
The series will be set at an East Coast mental institution for the criminally insane in the 1960s and feature the cast portraying completely different characters from their Season 1 roles.
