After a short stint on CBS All Access’ horror series Tell Me a Story, Kim Cattrall is coming to Fox.
Cattrall has been cast as the lead in Fox’s Filthy Rich drama pilot. She is set to star in and produce the Southern family soap.
The series, which follows the Monroe family’s “larger than life” matriarch Margaret, whose patriarch — a wealthy CEO of the world’s largest Christian network — dies in a plane crash hails from Tate Taylor. After his death, Margaret and her children discover he has illegitimate children who are also in his will. Margaret tries to pay them to go away but the newly discovered and legitimate heirs have other plans, which include becoming part of the family empire.
Taylor will direct the pilot from his own script. He will also serve as executive producer alongside Brian Grazer, John Norris and Francie Calfo.
Cattrall is best known for her role as Samantha on HBO’s Sex and the City.
