James Cromwell 

as 

Dr. Arthur Arden / Hans Grüper  

American Horror Story: Asylum 

FX

Dr. Arthur Arden (James Cromwell) is a doctor at Briarcliff Institute and a former Nazi whose sadistic experiments have produced "Raspers", mutated former patients, who lurk in the woods surrounding the institution. He appears to have a history of violence towards women. He and Sister Jude often clash, seeing as he is often fighting for the power she has over the asylum. He becomes loyal to the possessed Sister Mary Eunice, after she attacks him, and helps frame Sister Jude for the murder of Frank McCann. He performs an experiment with Kit after he believes aliens have taken Grace's body. The experiment succeeds in causing the aliens to return, along with a now-pregnant Grace and patient Pepper, who tells Arden his experiments are a joke to the aliens and should be stopped. He later walks with Mary to feed the Raspers and shoots them all. He appears pathetic to Mary, which makes him even more depressed. When the monsignor later kills Mary, Arden insists that she should be cremated. Alone with her body at the furnace, he starts the fire inside, climbs on top of her, and starts the conveyor to immolate himself. For his performance, Mr. Cromwell was nominated for the Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Movie/Miniseries Supporting Actor and the  Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Miniseries or a Movie in 2013.
