Kim Kardashian joins the chilling cast of 'American Horror Story: Delicate' alongside Emma Roberts and Cara Delevingne, showcasing their haunting portrayal of mysterious and unsettling mothers in the spine-chilling trailer

In the first glimpse of her highly anticipated role in season 12, Kim Kardashian perfectly captures the eerie atmosphere of American Horror Story.

Released on July 20 by FX Networks on YouTube, the footage of AHS: Delicate showcases Kardashian, along with Emma Roberts and Cara Delevingne, donning avant-garde sunglasses as they strike poses in a haunting nursery. Accompanied by a haunting rendition of "Rock-a-Bye Baby," the clip unveils a transformed Kardashian, almost unrecognizable.

The Skims mogul, who appeared in the latter part of the trailer, held a baby while gazing directly at the camera. Kardashian wore a black halter dress paired with elbow-length gloves that matched perfectly. Her standout feature was her beauty look, which included bleached eyebrows to complement her lengthy platinum locks. Additionally, Kardashian accentuated her eyes with long false lashes and opted for a bold red lip.

In April, news spread that the Kardashians star had received an offer to play a leading role in Ryan Murphy's upcoming edition of American Horror Story. This opportunity would have her starring alongside Roberts, Delevingne, and Czuchry.

Kim is thrilled about the incredible opportunity to be cast in AHS. It is truly an honor for her to work alongside some of the most talented individuals in such an iconic franchise. Initially, she had some nerves about taking on such a significant project, but she recognized that it was an opportunity she couldn't refuse.

The source also shared, "She is eagerly looking forward to showcasing her skills in this role. While she has acted before, she feels that this experience takes her to a whole new level."

Subsequently, Murphy, aged 57, revealed to The Hollywood Reporter that a specially crafted role, portrayed as "fun, stylish, and ultimately terrifying," had been written exclusively for Kardashian by show writer Halley Feiffer.

Kardashian, known for her previous appearances in films such as Disaster Movie, Last Man Standing, Drop Dead Diva, and PAW Patrol: The Movie, began production in May.

According to a second insider, this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for Kardashian, and she is eagerly anticipating the release of the final product. Keeping her role in American Horror Story under wraps, Kardashian wants it to be a thrilling surprise for audiences. Despite feeling slightly nervous about delivering a stellar performance, she has been met with immense warmth and cooperation from the cast and crew, making the filming process enjoyable.

As the season premiere approaches, Kardashian and the AHS team anticipate it eagerly. However, Kardashian's casting has faced criticism from both loyal fans of the show and renowned actors.

Patti LuPone previously questioned Kim, asking her about her life choices during her appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on April 23. LuPone then quoted a Noël Coward song, warning against a stage mother pushing her untalented daughter into a career on stage, saying, "Don't get on the stage, Mrs. Worthington."

Although Kardashian has yet to address the criticism surrounding her casting, she mentioned in an interview with Variety at the Met Gala in May that she had been taking acting lessons in preparation for filming.
