The show will be written by Sarah Burgess, who will also executive produce, along with Ryan Murphy, Nina Jacobson, Brad Simpson, Brad Falchuk, Larry Karaszewski, Scott Alexander, Alexis Martin Woodall and Paulson. Feldstein, Henrietta Conrad, Jemima Khan and Lewinsky will produce. “Impeachment: American Crime Story” is slated to premiere in September 2020.
