'The Shield' man to make biker drama

Rex Features

Kurt Sutter - an executive producer on The Shield - is working on a drama series about a biker club.

FX has ordered a 13-part run of Sons of Anarchy. The club will be seen attempting to protect its fictional California hometown from the likes of developers and drug dealers.

Sutter has been working on the project for some time and production will now begin in June, with stars including Charlie Hunnam and Katey Sagal.

"I feel like a full patch member of Sons of Anarchy, being in this project for a year and a half now," said Sutter. "I'm thrilled to get the opportunity to not only explore the outlaw motorcycle world but to do it with grit and authenticity."
