... Sutter returns to that world with Mayans MC, a drama series pilot for FX and the next chapter in the SOA saga, which he co-wrote with producing partner Elgin James. Sutter will direct the pilot episode of the Sons of Anarchy spin-off and serve as Executive Producer, with James serving as Co-Executive Producer.

Mayans MC is set in a post Jax Teller world, where EZ Reyes, a prospect in the Mayan MC charter on the Cali/Mexi border, struggles with his desire for vengeance against the cartel, and his need for respect from the women he loves.

The outlet reports that J.D. Pardo (Revolution, East Los High) has landed the role of Ezekiel "EZ" Reyes, the "gifted son of a proud Latino family, whose American dream was snuffed out by cartel violence. Now, his need for vengeance drives him toward a life he never intended and can never escape." Mayans MC will be set in a post-SOA world and will be scripted by Kurt Sutter and Elgin James, with Sutter directing the pilot as well. Pardo joins the already cast Clayton Cardenas (American Crime) and John Ortiz (FAST & FURIOUS) as well as Edward James Olmos (Battlestar Galactica), who will be playing EZ's father, Felipe Reyes. After years of being crushed by bullets and labor, the Reyes family's formerly strong patriarch struggles to keep his past buried and lead his own sons down a lawful and righteous path. (Joblo.com)
