Ron Perlman Rides Along with Sons of Anarchy
Sons of Anarchy by Prashant Gupta/FX
Ron Perlman has nabbed the starring role in the FX upcoming series
Sons of Anarchy.
He'll play the leader of an outlaw motorcycle club whose mission is to protect their California town from drug dealers and business developers. He's also the stepfather of central character Jax Teller (played by
Charlie Hunnam).
Perlman's role initially went to Scott Glenn for the show's pilot, but producers opted for Perlman to achieve a more darkly comedic feel.
Katey Sagal and
Sopranos alum
Drea de Matteo have also signed onto the show. -
