The third season of FX's "American Horror Story", subtitled "Coven", has added another high-profile name.

According to show-runner Ryan Murphy (via his Twitter feed), Gabourey Sidibe, who was nominated for an Oscar for her performance in PRECIOUS, has been added to the ensemble. Naturally, details further than that are not available. 

Sidebe joins Kathy Bates and previous castmemberss Jessica Lange, Evan Peters, Sarah Paulson, Taissa Farmiga, Frances Conroy and Lily Rabe.

"American Horror Story: Coven" will soon begin filming in New Orleans; a premiere in October is in the cards.
