MRS. AMERICA on FX: First Look

FX has shared a first look at the star-studded cast of MRS. AMERICA, most of whom are portraying real people.

Per the network, MRS. AMERICA “tells the story of the movement to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), and the unexpected backlash led by a conservative woman named Phyllis Schlafly, played by Blanchett.
