Katey Sagal To Star In New Erin Brockovich-Inspired Series

There are few words that more spark joy inside my heart than Katey Segal. She is truly the ultimate TV mom.

Not only is she a total baddie, but she's an incredible actor! Katey has had an iconic career that has spanned over nearly four decades.

Now, the 66-year-old actress is taking on a new TV series with an Erin Brockovich twist!

Katey Sagal is known for so many iconic characters, it's hard to name just one!

From Peggy Bundy on Married... With Children to Cate Hennessy on Eight Simple Rules and of course, Gemma Teller Morrow from the LEGENDARY Sons of Anarchy!

Sorry, can we just take a moment to appreciate this 2013 *SOA* selfie?

Charlie Hunnam!!!! BABY COME BACK TO ME!

BRB gonna go rewatch some Sons of Anarchy, I need some Jax Teller screaming in my face right now!

Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled programming!

It now seems Katey is ready to give fans another epic performance!

Inspired by the later life of American legal clerk Erin Brockovich, Katey will star in the upcoming ABC series Rebel.

Of course, this is not the first adaptation of the life story of Erin Brockovich. The 2000 Julia Roberts film will live on in our hearts always!

Katey will portray Annie 'Rebel' Bello, a blue-collar legal advocate without a law degree!

Annie is described as a "funny, messy, brilliant and fearless woman who cares desperately about the causes she fights for and the people she loves," as per Variety.

Okay... so that basically sounds like Gemma Teller, but with less murder!

"Erin Brockovich has never stopped the extraordinary work she does fighting for her clients like they’re family, and Krista Vernoff’s take on her life today in ‘Rebel’ is undeniable" said president of ABC Entertainment, Karey Burke.

"Katey Sagal is a powerhouse as Rebel and with Andy Garcia, John Corbett and the rest of the phenomenal cast, viewers are going to fall in love with these characters and the world Krista has created for them."

I cannot wait!
