“Conflict” – Ryan Murphy’s anthology

The first season of “Conflict” focused on the legendary rivalry tinged with envy and a close dependency between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, portrayed by Susan Sarandon and Jessica Lange, respectively. Ryan Murphy conceived “Conflict” as one of his anthology series, with each season dedicated to a different famous scandal.

A second season was initially planned to explore the successor to the British throne, Charles, and Princess Diana, but Murphy ultimately rejected the proposed script.
