FX's hit biker show Sons Of Anarchy is getting a sequel series by creator Kurt Sutter and producer Elgin James.
The pilot for Mayans MC will start shooting in March, with Sons of Anarchy and The Shield creator Sutter at the helm.
Sutter co-wrote the script with long-time friend and filmmaker Elgin James, whose troubled childhood led him to gang affiliations in Boston.
"I wanted to find a strong, unique Latino voice," Sutter said.
"Because I didn't think a white guy from Jersey should be writing about Latin culture and traditions. Elgin is that voice."

Sons Of Anarchy rode into the sunset in 2014 after seven seasons.
The sequel will take place after the last season's finale and focus on the motorcycle club's rivals, the Mayans.
"The show is set in a post Jax Teller world," FX said in a statement.
"Where EZ Reyes, a prospect in the Mayan MC charter on the Cali/Mexi border, struggles with his desire for vengeance against the cartel, and his need for respect from the women he loves."
In the original series, the Mayans were a rival biker gang which eventually agrees a temporary alliance with the Sons Of Anarchy Motorcycle Club.
Mayans also marks Sutter's return to FX following the cancellation of his last show The Bastard Executioner after only one season.
