The project will follow the Clinton scandal, and will be produced by Monica Lewinksy.

Beanie Feldstein has been cast to star as Lewinsky, Sarah Paulson as Linda Tripp, and Annaleigh Ashford as Paula Jones. The series is based off of best-selling book A Vast Conspiracy: The Real Story of the Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought Down a President.

FX CEO John Landgraf says of the series announcement, “This franchise re-examines some of the most complicated, polarizing stories in recent history in a way that is relevant, nuanced and entertaining. Impeachment: American Crime Story will likewise explore the overlooked dimensions of the women who found themselves caught up in the scandal and political war that cast a long shadow over the Clinton presidency.”

Production will begin in February and the premiere is set for September 2020.
