The second season of FX's anthology series 'Feud,' titled 'Feud: Capote vs. The Swans,' premieres tomorrow, exploring Truman Capote's fall from grace in New York high society following the publication of his story 'La Côte Basque 1965.' The series, returning after a seven-year hiatus, features a cast including Demi Moore as Anne Woodward, Calista Flockhart, Naomi Watts, and Jessica Lange as Truman Capote's mother. It dramatizes the scandal that unfolded when Capote, once a celebrated author and socialite, was rejected by his circle of influential friends, dubbed 'the swans,' after he divulged their secrets. The show promises a mix of catty cruelty, poignant tragedy, and top-tier performances, with insights from the actors on their roles and the historical context of Capote's social zenith at his Black and White Ball in 1966. Liz Smith's article on the society scandal, the involvement of actors such as Treat Williams and Tom Hollander, and writer Jon Robin Baitz's collaboration with an ensemble including Chlöe Sevigny add depth to the anticipated series.
