See FX's 'American Crime Story' cast alongside the real players in the O.J. Simpson trial
FX
Based on Jeffrey Toobin's book "The Run of His Life: The People V. O.J. Simpson," the limited series will take a look at the O.J. Simpson trial told from the perspective of the lawyers.
It will explore the chaotic behind-the-scenes dealings and maneuvering on both sides of the court, and how the LAPD's history with the city's African-American community affected the trial.
For the past several months, casting on the series have kept people buzzing as many still remember watching the case that went down in the mid-90s and feel they know the players well.
With production underway in Los Angeles, FX has just released the first photos of the cast. Business Insider took the extra step of showing them side-by-side with the real people they'll be playing.
