The trailer for FX’s new sure-to-be Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning limited series, Mrs. America, landed yesterday and whoooo boi you were not expecting to be attracted to Phyllis Schlafly, were you? Second question: Are Cate Blanchett and Sarah Paulson going to star alongside each other in everything now? (Fingers crossed!) Mrs. America follows Blanchett’s Schlafly, an anti-feminist activist who tried to destroy the Equal Rights Amendment in the 1970s, as she battles Betty Friedan (Tracy Ullman) and Gloria Steinem (Rose Byrne) alongside Shirley Chisholm (Uzo Aduba).
