Gillian Anderson (The Crown, Sex Education) will star in Netflix’s The Abandons, the action drama series set in the West from Kurt Sutter (Mayans M.C., Sons of Anarchy) via his SutterInk banner. The X-Files alum was cast in the role prior to the start of the writers strike.
Anderson will play Constance, the matriarch of the wealthy Van Ness family who inherited her husband’s mining fortune, then doubled it. Despite the town’s inherent bias against women, her money, charm and ruthlessness created a network of political allies. For her, power, wealth and lineage trump all.
