Katey Sagal and Stephen Moyer are set to star in a new FX Series.
Now that Sons of Anarchy and True Blood are over, fans have been a little bummed. However, this new FX series may be just what fans need to cheer up.
SOA‘s Katey Sagal and True Blood‘s Moyer are set to costar in the period drama The Bastard Executioner, the new series by SOA creator and Sagal’s husband Kurt Sutter.
The plot follows a warrior knight, played by Australian newcomer Lee Jones, who finds himself discouraged from the savagery of war but is forced to fight once again for King Edward I.
Moyer will play “a street-smart and noble savvy, and one of Ventris’ former marshals in the army who now, serves as his chamberlain, chancellor and justiciar – and friend and drinking mate,” Variety reported.
