Kim Kardashian is coming to a small screen near you later this yer.

No, she doesn’t have a new sex tape out… that we know if.

And, no, this is not a reference to The Kardashians Season 3, the trailer for which just recently hit the Internet.

Instead, we’re talking about the unexpected news that this long-time reality star has landed a rather substantial role in American Horror Story Season 12.

As a character specifically written with her in mind, Kardashian will joins returning series alum Emma Roberts on the drama — which, in a first for the popular show, will be written and showrun by a single writer, Halley Feiffer.

“Kim is among the biggest and brightest television stars in the world and we are thrilled to welcome her to the AHS family,” said American Horror Story co-creator Murphy in a statement on Monday.

“Emma and I are excited about collaborating with this true force in the culture.

“Halley Feiffer has written a fun, stylish and ultimately terrifying role especially for Kim, and this season is ambitious and unlike anything we have ever done.”

While no further details about Kim and Emma’s roles have not been shared publicly at this time, The Hollywood Reporter states that season 12 will be based on author Danielle Valentine’s upcoming book “Delicate Condition.”

The novel, which will be released in August, centers on a woman named Anna Alcott who begins to start a family.

However, amid her journey to pregnancy, she grows convinced that someone is trying to stop her baby dream from coming true.

Kardashian reportedly made a positive impression on Murphy back when she hosted Saturday Night Live in 2021.

Aside from her well-known reality TV career over the years, the mother of four does have a number of acting credits, including appearances on series CSI: NY, Drop Dead Diva and Beyond the Break.

American Horror Story tapped Jessica Lange for a starring role back in season one and has often employed huge names in fascinating capacities ever since.

The program famously cast Lady Gaga, whose acting credits were then just her own elaborate music videos, in season five … paving the way for her successful movie career.

Might Kim Kardashian soon follow the same path???
