Diane Lane's role as Slim Keith in FEUD: Capote Vs. The Swans (FX/Hulu) is her third Emmy nomination and her first in the category of Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series (Drama). Previous nominations were Lorena in Lonesome Dove (1989) and Pat Loud in Cinema Verite (2011).
In June, she told the Los Angeles Times, "When Ryan Murphy essentially cold-called me and said Jon Robin Baitz was the writer, I realized how exposed I had already been to his talent, his gifts, his passion for truly interior and external world-building writing. I thought, 'This is such a gift!' It was one of those offers you can't refuse."

In pre-production is the film, Anniversary (working title as of this writing).
Inspired by documentary filmmaker Ashley Avis's, Wild Beauty : Mustang Spirit of the West, Diane is actively involved in gaining signatures and supporters in hopes of passing H.R.3656 - Wild Horse and Burro Protection Act of 2023. The bill prohibits the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) from using or contracting for the use of helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft for gathering horses and burros under the Wild Free-roaming Horses and Burros Act.
Diane shared in the success of raising awareness towards the passing of the Shark Fin Sales Elimination Act; making it illegal to possess, buy, or sell shark fins or any product containing shark fins (H.R. 2811/S. 1106). She has met in opposition to the practices of offshore drilling and seismic air gun blasting with the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) and authored a Washington Post Op Ed.
