Charlie Hunnam is making a limited series called Legends for FX that sounds like his version of Galaxy Quest, but with his Sons of Anarchy co-stars. “When the cast of Sons of Anarchy reunites at a fan convention after more than a decade, the line between life and art blurs as the fractured brotherhood finds itself up against a real-world threat more dangerous than anything they ever faced in their show.” Hunnam developed this with Jonathan Groff, and they’re EPing with Rob Mac and some other folks.
