The celebrated horror anthology TV series 'American Horror Story' will be back on screens with Season 6 and work is under progress.

Lady Gaga is returning to the show, but Jessica Lange has decided to give it a miss. And that makes the case almost equal in terms of loss for fans. While one familiar face won't be there, another has decided to show up. But there is one more familiar face that is strongly rumored to be making a comeback.

Leslie Jordan, the well-known comedian, who we saw in Season 3- 'Coven,' in the role of warlock Quentin Fleming, is said to have reunited with showrunner Ryan Murphy for the sixth installment. In the past, he was asked to return for season 4 as well but he declined the offer.

This time, he seems to have given his consent. However, no official confirmation has come from his side. So, what is driving the rumors? Well, the actor has hinted about returning to the series and he even knows the date when the shooting begins for the upcoming season, which is July 7.

Leslie, in an interview, admitted to having a hectic schedule, but said that he would make it to the taping of season 6. He also said that he was offered another season after his first, but he had been offered a reality show in London and he chose to go for it because he needed money and the reality show was paying him a lot.

He also acknowledged that it was a mistake to decline the offer. He called it as one of the biggest mistakes of his life and revealed that he had never thought Ryan would want him back after what he had done. A report also says that before Leslie accepted the offer, Ryan promised to not stop writing to him until he found time and returned to the show.

Well, even if the report is just a rumor, kudos to both Ryan and Leslie for showing great professionalism. We are sure the pair will again create magic with their teamwork.
