Maisie Williams To Star In Sex Pistols Limited Series For FX
Maisie Williams has joined the cast of the upcoming FX limited series, Pistol, from director, Danny Boyle. This new creation for the cable channel will focus on Sex Pistols guitarist, Steve Jones.
According to Deadline, “Produced by FX Productions, Pistol is anchored by Jones’ book, Lonely Boy: Tales from a Sex Pistol, which moves from West London’s council estates, to Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren’s notorious Kings Road SEX shop, to the international controversy that came with the release of Never Mind the Bollocks, which was banned by the BBC and is frequently listed as one of the most influential albums of all time.”
Maisie will be taking on the role of punk icon Jordan while Toby Wallace will play Jones. Production on the six-part limited series is set to get underway later this year.
