darkly humorous drama exploring a notorious
outlaw motorcycle

club's lawlessness. Katey Sagal stars as
his force-of-nature mother who, along with

her own ideas about the direction of the
Sons of Anarchy. Additional co-stars

September.

with that of his life in the family founded
Anarchy motorcycle club. Katey is set to
play the mother and the matriarch of the
club. The role was originally written for

Patience.

A vision of the future prompts
Eli to take the case of a prisoner who's
been denied parole-and happens to be a
former client of Keith's. Unfortunately, the
timing couldn't be worse because law firm
partner Marci Klein (guest star Katey Sagal)
is in town to investigate why the firm's
Fortune 500 clients are leaving in droves
(hint: it's Eli's fault), which could mean
the end of Jordan's reign as senior partner.

for That Day, aired on April 13.

sitting in the back of a taxicab traveling
on the Golden Gate Bridge when suddenly the

the city of San Francisco to get it to shut
down the Golden Gate Bridge before it's too
late. But he's opposed in court by W.P.K
senior partner, Marci Klein.
No Place Like Home
Katey recently filmed the new indie comedy "No Place Like Home" written and directed by Sam Harper and
produced by Wayne Rice. The film will get an immediate marketing push via its other producer, Jordan Hudgens, of the new video sharing
syndicate Vidshadow.com. While the film was being shot, Hudgens had a film crew on the set getting daily b-roll that was edited
into a weekly trailer for the film that can be viewed via his popular web portal Vidshadow.com. These clips will be available for
immediate public viewing to generate hype and will be used as a marketing component to help secure a studio to widely distribute the
film for theatrical release. No Place Like Home centers on a father who in order to enjoy his retirement takes drastic measures to get
his twenty-something, slacker sons to move out and fend for themselves.
