Ryan Murphy’s forthcoming “American Love Story” officially began filming in June across New York City.
Expected to be released in February 2026, the historic fiction miniseries chronicles the love story of John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. Paul Kelly plays JFK Jr. alongside Sarah Pidgeon as Bessette. The couple was married from 1996 until their tragic deaths in 1999. The series has already been subject to scrutiny and intrigue, particularly in the depiction of JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette’s respective styles.
