Unfortunately I haven’t a clue. While I have a good feeling he is playing Norman Blachford there’s no official confirmation either, so it’s all a mystery. If anyone knows who this actor is drop a line!
theshamelesshussy: Sorry for the Penelope Cruz fans but where did anyone say this would be about Donnatella? Of course Academy Award winner Penelope Cruz would be given top billing just for doing a TV mini series!
This is how the show is being marketed towards the general public:
In the EW photoshoot behind-the-scenes video they also say “This show is about the life and death of Gianni Versace.” None of the actors who play the other victims or police force have given any interviews. It’s understandable why critics and eventually the general audience will feel misled, but it’s really FX’s marketing department who is responsible.
blaindersonkummel: I just read it back and I seem snarky… my sarcasm wasn’t aimed at this account by the way 😛
No worries about it! 👍
One of Lauren Cox’s tweets says it’s a new trailer, so here’s hoping it drops soon!
You’re very welcome 🙂 I’m just glad to be on this wild ride with everyone else. It’s so close now!
bonamore: I can confirm ep 3 was filming in Chicago (I was there), I saw Judith Light, Mike Farrell, Darren of course shoot that day.
Thanks for the confirmation!
It’s likely a reference to Gianni Versace’s villa at Lago di Como (Lake Como), and I think David Madson’s murder will occur in that episode since he was killed next to a lake.
I believe that Miglin’s murder is actually in episode 3, but for some reason I couldn’t find anything on the blog or IMDB confirming that (Mike Farrell’s IMDB profile only has him listed as 2.01 as a placeholder). We do know William Reese’s murder is in episode 3 though, and since the show is going in reverse it makes sense that Miglin’s murder would take place in 3 or 4.

Critics get to screen a few episodes early to write reviews and generate buzz before the show airs. For People vs OJ critics previewed 6 out of the 10 episodes, and I expect we’ll find out how many episodes they have this time. Hope this helps!
So it’s been revealed that Max Greenfield’s character’s name is Ronnie. I’m guessing that might be Ronnie Holston? He was the florist that lived in the same hotel building as Cunanan’s at the time. When police tried tracking Cunanan down by tracking a pawn ticket, he had given them Ronnie’s room instead of his own. Cunanan was very very private accorting to Ronnie, but I’m sure the interaction in ACS:V is embellished for them to have dialogue on the show.
Tagging @acsversace-news for reasons.
Yes, although the source material Vulgar Favors goes more in-depth with Ronnie – he was a gay man in his 40s who hung around with Cunanan and set him up with sex and drugs (they would even smoke marijuana together), though Ronnie maintains he never had sex with Cunanan. He ended up getting harassed by the authorities when Cunanan listed his room number on the pawnshop form.
He supposedly had long, stringy blond hair and blue eyes so if they’re taking liberties anywhere it’s with the dark buzz cut look ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Hope this answers your question!
