Paint it black.
Over the seven seasons of Sons Of Anarchy, it amassed such a devoted fan-base that you could almost hear the collective heartbreak when the show came to an end back in 2014.
However, both the show’s creator and the channel it came on know that you can’t let a good thing die completely, and see we have the upcoming spin-off for that show, titled Mayans MC.
A few months back, we told you that the show will take up where Sons of Anarchy left-off, and will focus on SAMCRO’s rival motorcycle group and follow a young club prospect named EZ Reyes, played by JD Pardo, who is a Mayans MC recruit who is torn between the woman he loves and his loyalty to the gang.
Regarding the show, FX president John Landgraf told TV Guide: “I’m really excited about where we are in the process of Mayans. I’m very confident about the future of that spin-off.”
Kurt Sutter, creator of Sons of Anarchy, says that the show will be set “far enough away from Northern California that it wouldn’t step on the mythology that’s already been told.”
“It doesn’t mean that there couldn’t be some cool, ironic crossovers with familiar characters as the series progressed. [But] I wouldn’t want to set it too close to the world we already know, and step on that,” Sutter added.
We still don’t have an exact release date for the show – it is due “this Autumn” – but we did finally get our first teaser trailer, with the emphasis on teaser.
Over a Spanish version of The Rolling Stones’ ‘Paint It Black’, we see the gang zipping down an empty highway, turning the red roses black as they go.
Symbolism.
