'Capote vs. The Swans' Second Trailer Expands FX's 'Feud'

Tom Hollander first caught the attention of the PBS crowd in the late 1990s with his appearance in the BBC-Masterpiece joint production of Elizabeth Gaskell's Wives and Daughters. A couple of years later, he landed on the big screen in Gosford Park, cementing his place as part of the costume drama crowd, which meant, for American viewers, he mainly shuttled back and forth from PBS to HBO and back again. But in the past few years, Hollander has broken into the broader mainstream on television, going from a "that guy" British dude in films like Mission Impossible and The Muppets to iconic roles in The Night Manager, The White Lotus, and now Feud: Capote vs. The Swans.

The Feud series is part of the Ryan Murphy-verse, which most American TV watchers will know as the very American set of shows that mainly air on the Disney-owed FX network and streams on the Disney-owned Hulu, plus a few occasional hits on Netflix. Murphy tends to use and reuse the same actors over and over. While he does occasionally glom on to a British actor here and there (Russell Tovey, for instance, has appeared in many of his series, and he recently started casting up-and-coming English actors Cara Delevingne and Annabelle Dexter-Jones), it's rare for him to cast someone so established like this. However, British actors are a mark of prestige TV, and Feud is the prestige show in Murphy's lineup.

Moreover, Hollander's turn as the iconic Capote is absolutely worth watching. Check out the new trailer, which gives viewers their first real look at his performance.
