Sons of Anarchy spin-off in the works at FX
The world of Sons of Anarchy could ride again at FX.
After years of hinting that Sons might get a spin-off, EW has learned that series creator Kurt Sutter is now in the preliminary stages of developing a new show set in the Northern California motorcycle club scene.
Details about the project are scarce. In fact, we only know one thing for certain about the proposed storyline: The project focuses on the Mayans — the Oakland-based Hispanic MC gang that had quite a rocky history with SAMCRO across seven seasons. In the original series, the Mayans run heroin factories and are also involved in prostitution. Their cuts bear the legend “Los Asesinos de Dios” — Assassins of God.
Sutter had previously teased the idea of doing an SoA prequel as recently as last month at Comic-Con, possibly as a limited series. FX won’t officially confirm whether the new series will be a prequel or not. Either way, creating a new drama set in the SoA-verse makes plenty of sense for FX as Sons ranks as the most popular show in the network’s history. Last December’s Sons finale was seen by a whopping 9.2 million viewers.
Sutter will executive produce the as-yet-untitled project, and is currently hunting for a showrunner to handle the Mayan’s day-to-day management. Sutter will remain focused on running his upcoming medieval drama The Bastard Executioner, which premieres Tuesday, Sept. 15 (and stars Lee Jones, Stephen Moyer, Katey Sagal and Ed Sheeran). Sutter also wrote the screenplay for the feature film Southpaw starring Jake Gyllenhaal, which was released last month.
The Mayans project would be produced by Fox 21 Television Studios and FX Productions.

I wish Sutter would completely unshackle himself from dramatic conventions and just make something totally unpredictable and insane. I know he has it in him.

He reminds me of the guy in high school that listened to heavy metal and was into fantasy drawing and D&D.

That's the guy. I saw him and Katy Segal leaving a furniture store a few years back. Sutter was wearing black dr martins, black shorts, and an old cruddy black t-shirt. He looked like he slept in a backyard.

I always figured they'd do a prequel when Clay and Gemma and all them were young. Show what happened Jax's dad and brother. Just the thought of that makes me exhausted.

My wife was pretty excited when I told her about the Mayans spin-off. Also, fuck the Irish - that season sucked.

It's fine but not as good. I haven't even started this season yet. It will give you the SoA craving you need.
