Behind the Scenes of Feud: Capote vs. the Swans
Feud: Capote's Women, the second season of Ryan Murphy's Feud anthology, will follow Truman Capote and his famous female friendships. It's based on Capote's Women: A True Story of Love, Betrayal, and a Swan Song for an Era by Laurence Leamer,which tells the story of Capote's betrayal of the women he called his "swans."
There's an all-star cast, including Tom Hollander as Capote, Naomi Watts as Babe Paley, Chloë Sevigny as C.Z. Guest, Diane Lane as Nancy "Slim" Keith, and Calista Flockhart as Lee Radziwill. As the show films in New York City, here are some of the best behind the scenes snaps from the shoot:
Watts, who stars as American socialite Babe Paley, was pictured filming in a blush pink ensemble on the Upper East Side.
Here, she talks with members of the crew in between takes.

Ella Beatty (pictured) plays Kerry O’Shea, daughter of John O'Shea, Capote's longtime lover. Capote would go on change Kerry's name to Kate Harrington, and take her under his wing as his protégée.

In Central Park, Hollander was pictured filming with an unidentified actor.
Capote was openly gay, and from this, it's clear Feud will dive into his relationships. He spent the majority of his life in a relationship with fellow writer Jack Dunphy.
Beatty filmed a scene in Central Park with Vito Schnabel, an art dealer and sometimes actor. His role has yet to be announced.
Beatty sat on the Central Park statue of Alice, from Alice in Wonderland.
The two held hands as they filmed a scene.
Kerry was clearly a fashionable young woman, based on this divine green jacket!
On another shoot day, Hollander was photographed filming with Diane Lane. Lane is set to play Nancy "Slim" Keith.
Lane's costume included a striking red coat and matching blouse.
