From Deadline:

“Feud” is returning for a second season to f[X], this time based on Laurence Leamer’s book “Capote’s Women: A True Story of Love, Betrayal, and a Swan Song for an Era.” Eight episodes directed by Gus Van Sant, and written by Tony- and Pulitzer-nominated Jon Robin Baitz, who will also serve as showrunner. Oscar nominee Naomi Watts stars as Babe Paley, a socialite who ruled the glamorous world of New York society in the 1960s and 70s.

The miniseries begins in the 1970s and ends with Truman Capote’s death in 1984. It chronicles the tale of the famous wunderkind author as he stabs several of his female friends—whom he called his “swans”—in the back by publishing a roman à clef short story called “La Côte Basque 1965” in Esquire in 1975. The piece was intended to be a chapter in Capote’s infamous unfinished novel “Answered Prayers,” his follow-up to the blockbuster “In Cold Blood.”

Worldwide search is underway for an actor to play Truman Capote in “Capote’s Women.” Other Oscar-nominated and winning actresses are being approached to star alongside Watts playing Capote’s Socialite Swans, including Slim, Pamela, Lee, Gloria and C.Z., as well as Johnny Carson’s second wife Joanne Carson, a good friend of Capote’s who remained close to him until his death. Casting these roles is expected to kick into high gear next week, spearheaded by the miniseries’ producing team of Baitz, Watts and Van Sant.

This is Watts’ moment, I hope she has the recognition she deserves. Actress far superior to several Oscar winners.

I wonder if it wouldn’t be better for the show to be standalone rather than the second season of “Feud”.

That’s such a good news.
I just hope she has a better part than Zeta-Jones and Kathy Bates in season 1.
