Exclusive: Kurt Sutter and Katey Sagal have teamed up for their first podcast, Pie. People. Influences. Experiences. The program will start April 2, available on all podcast players and YouTube.
They describe Pie as an intimate parlor conversation exploring the ingredients that “baked up” each guest. It is a respectful, deep dive into nature and nurture — family, faith, friends, hometowns, schooling, mentors, tormentors, etc. It will be the heart-to-heart chat that gives us some authentic insight into each guest’s personal and professional choices — in the arts, athletics, healthcare, politics, etc.
I can testify that between them, this couple can cover a healthy span of topics. A few years back, I convinced Sutter to co-live blog the Emmys for Deadline.

After so many acclaimed and popular performances in projects ranging from 300 to Game of Thrones to The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Lena Headey is stepping behind the camera for the first time for her directorial debut, The Trap.
The indie film – which is having its world premiere this weekend at the Austin Film Festival — is a character-driven psychological drama with some shockingly dark elements (which will not be spoiled here). The Trap stars Headey’s Thrones co-star Michelle Fairley as a woman living a life of solitude when she meets a mysterious young drifter (James Nelson Joyce). The project is based on Headey’s short film, which she also wrote.
The Trap comes at a busy time for Headey, who also stars in Zak Penn’s upcoming sci-fi series Beacon 23, which premieres Nov. 12 on MGM+, and she stars in Kurt Sutter’s upcoming Netflix Western drama series The Abandons,...

As Paramount Network’s Yellowstone franchise continues to set ratings records and expand with more star-studded spinoffs, the ranch drama’s success has prompted other networks and streamers to head out West.
Amazon, sources say, is fast-tracking an untitled Western from True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto, which Nick Pepper, its head of U.S. wholly owned series and development, is considering the streamer’s version of the Taylor Sheridan favorite. Netflix is doubling down on the genre with The Abandons, a show from Sons of Anarchy alum Kurt Sutter set in 1850s Oregon in which outlier families pursue Manifest Destiny, and American Primeval, a limited series about the birth of the American West starring Taylor Kitsch (Friday Night Lights) and written by Eric Newman (Narcos).
Other projects — including a farm-set series from Sheridan himself — are also in the works as multiple sources say execs at both linear networks...
