Mayans MC is an American television drama series created by Kurt Sutter, and is set to air on the cable network channel FX. The show will premiere on Tuesday, September 4, 2018 at 10/9c. It is a spin-off of the FX original series Sons of Anarchy, and is based two years after the events in SOA. Creator Kurt Sutter refers to it as the second chapter of the story.
History
FX has ordered the pilot episode of the Sons of Anarchy spin-off and production started in April of 2017. The show was picked up by FX on January 5, 2018 and will debut on September 4, 2018.
Official Synopsis
Mayans MC is the next chapter in the Sons of Anarchy saga, Kurt Sutter's award-winning series. The first season of the new drama from Sutter and Elgin James will premiere on FX in 2018.
Set in a post Jax Teller world, where EZ Reyes -- fresh out of prison -- is a prospect in the Mayan MC charter on the Cali/Mexi border. Now EZ must carve out his new outlaw identity in a town where he once was the golden boy with the American Dream in his grasp.
Mayans MC stars Edward James Olmos, JD Pardo, Sarah Bolger, Clayton Cardenas, Richard Cabral, Michael Irby, Raoul Trujillo, Antonio Jaramillo and Carla Baratta.
Noberto Barba directed the pilot and will be an Executive Producer, with Sutter serving as Executive Producer and James serving as Co-Executive Producer. Mayans MC is produced by Fox 21 Television Studios and FX Productions.
Developments
The following is everything currently known about 'Mayans MC', courtesy of Maxim magazine:
1. THE SERIES TAKES PLACE AFTER THE DEATH OF JAX TELLER
- "It's a post-Jax Teller world. We talk a little about the ramifications of that final day with Jax that changed the fabric of northern California, and trickled down south," Sutter said.
2. SOME OF THE NEW CAST MEMBERS ARE ACTUAL CONVICTS
- Sutter wanted to ensure that his show was as authentic as possible, casting actual bikers and convicts in an array of supporting roles. "The thing I love about this cast is they have more jail time than screen time," Sutter said.
- Emilio Rivera is the only Sons of Anarchy actor confirmed to return, but Sutter hinted that there may be a transitional period early on in the show. There is speculation this means more old cast members might crop up, but they shouldn't stay around for long.
- "My job in this series, if we're blessed enough to continue, is to transition from the mythology [of Sons] and honor that, because we want to acknowledge where we came from and those fans, and then balance that with having a show that is original and different and doesn't feel like the Latino version of Sons of Anarchy," Sutter said.
4. THE STORY WILL BE TOLD FROM A LATINO PERSPECTIVE
- Now that blonde-haired, blue-eyed Charlie Hunnam is out, the spinoff will follow a Latino biker gang. Sutter made an effort to diversify the writer's room, including hiring Elgin James, a mixed-race writer and filmmaker.
- "My goal is really just to get the white guy out of the room as quickly as possible," he said. "I knew a white guy from Jersey should not be writing solely about Latino culture."
5. BUT IT WON'T GET TOO WRAPPED UP IN POLITICS
- "It's not a political show, I do not write political shows, I should not write political shows, but, the same way 'Sons' was a fictitious club and family in a real world, the real world always impacted that show," Sutter said.
- "So, this is not a show that will deal head-on those issues, but this is a show that takes place on the border, and it’s a politically-charged, and emotionally-charged, part of the world, [and] that stuff will have to bleed into the storytelling, or it won't be authentic."
Mayans MC premieres on FX on September 4, 2018.
