As part of his overall deal with Fox 21, Sons of Anarchy creator/showrunner Kurt Sutter is teaming with former Hell on Wheels showrunner John Shiban to develop a new dark action drama series for FX, Lucas Stand.

Based on an idea by Sutter, Lucas Stand is a dark, action/horror drama, with both episodic and serialized elements. It follows the salvation quest of a damaged former special ops soldier, who has been chosen to traverse time and place to hunt down and kill Hell’s law-breaking demons.

In addition to Lucas Stand, Sutter and his wife, Sons of Anarchy star Katey Sagal, along with producer Belle Zwerdling, are developing a dark comedy at FX, Diva. Clown. Killer.

Lucas Stand is Shiban’s first project with FX.
