Cobie Smulders to play Ann Coulter in Impeachment: American Crime Story  

Actor Cobie Smulders has replaced Betty Gilpin to play author-media personality Ann Coulter in Impeachment: American Crime Story.

The third instalment of the anthology series American Crime Story, centres around President Bill Clinton's 1998 impeachment and his infamous affair with then-White House intern Monica Lewinsky. 

The series is based on Jeffrey Toobin's book A Vast Conspiracy: The Real Story of the Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought Down a President. Gilpin, who was originally cast in the role of Coulter had quit the show in June due to call sheet clashes during the coronavirus pandemic. 

Beanie Feldstein plays as Lewinsky in the show, while Clive Owen features as Clinton. Ryan Murphy, Nina Jacobson, Brad Simpson, Brad Falchuk, Sarah Burgess executive produce. Burgess has also penned the season. Lewinsky serves as a producer.
