Pose is an American drama series created by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Steven Canals, televised on FX. The series premiered on June 3, 2018.

On July 12, 2018, the series was renewed for a second season, pushed back its premiere date from June 9, 2019, to June 11; it received another renewal from FX on June 17, 2019, for a third season.[1][2][3][4]

The series became avaliable for United Kingdom viewership on BBC Two, on March 21, 2019. It was also released on Netflix May 10, 2019.[5][6]

Synopsis

Pose is set in the world of the late-1980s to early-1990s and "looks at the juxtaposition of several segments of life and society in New York: the rise of the luxury universe, the downtown social and literary scene and the ball culture world."

Season One

Upon learning of a diagnosis, Blanca Rodriguez moves forward in establishing a house of her own and making a mark, much to her house mother Elektra Abundance's displeasure. Kicked from his home for his sexuality, Damon Richards moves to New York City to begin his dream career of dancing, meeting a new guy on the journey. Leaving House Abundance into House Evangelista, Angel finds herself romantically invested in rich family-man Stan Bowes.

Season Two

Filled with optimism, Blanca Rodriguez sets out to have her children's dreams come true. She persuades Angel to move away from the life of prostitution to become a model, while Lil Papi seeks a romantic interest in her. Pray Tell takes part in activism, joining an organization of Judy Kubrak's suggestion.

Development

It was announced on March 16, 2017, that FX had given the production a pilot order. The pilot was written by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Steven Canals, all of whom produced alongside Nina Jacobson, Brad Simpson, and Sherry Marsh; Production companies involved included FX Productions and Fox21 Television Studios. Leiomy Maldonado and Danielle Polanco choreographed the series' ball scenes. Later, it was announced that Janet Mock and Our Lady J had joined the show's writing staff and set to produce the series as well.

It was announced that FX had granted the production a series for a first season consisting of eight episodes. Ahead of its premiere on May 9, 2018, Murphy announced all profits from the series to non-profit charitable organizations that aided LGBTQ+ people.[7][8][9] On July 12, 2018, it was announced that the series had been renewed for a second season.[10] On June 17, 2019, FX renewed the series for a third season.[4]

Casting

Murphy and his team started casting for the show in March 2017. The production, following six months of a nationwide casting search, announced they had assembled the largest transgender cast ever for a scripted series, which included main cast actresses Mj Rodriguez, Indya Moore, Dominique Jackson, Hailie Sahar, and Angelica Ross; cisgender actors concurrently announced were Ryan Jamaal Swain, Billy Porter, and Dyllon Burnside. A day later, FX announced Evan Peters, Kate Mara, James Van Der Beek, and Tatiana Maslany were joining the series and set to portray their respective characters.[11][12]

Alongside the series order announcement, it was reported that Maslany had exited the series following redevelopment of her part into that of a 50-year old African-American woman. The character had been portrayed by Charlayne Woodard.[13] On September 19, 2018, Sandra Bernhard was promoted to series regular in Season Two, reprising her role as Nurse Judy.[14] Murphy, at PaleyFest, revealed a guest star from Patti LuPone for the season as well.[15][16]

Filming

Production for the series' pilot began in New York City in October 2017. The following first season episodes were expected to begin production in February 2018. Murphy directed the series' first two episodes and Mock directed the sixth, marking her as the first transgender woman of color to write and direct an episode of television.[17]

In March 2020, production for the third season was suspended due to the coronavirus fears.[18]
