'Sons of Anarchy' Casting: 'Community' Star Joel McHale Joins Season 5
by Andy Neuenschwander
The cast of "Sons of Anarchy" season 5 is starting to round out... and so is the list of new characters who might not make it too long.
"Community" star Joel McHale is the latest name to join the cast of the FX biker drama, as confirmed by a tweet that Katey Sagal sent out with a picture of her and McHale on set. McHale will reportedly play a con man who goes a little too far in crossing someone that he shouldn't have crossed. Note to self: don't try to con a biker gang.
McHale will be on for a multi-episode arc, and is just one of a few familiar faces joining the cast for the upcoming season. Former Disney starlet Ashley Tisdale will appear in season 5 as a prostitute, while Jimmy Smits will star in a season-long arc as another gang member who mentors Jax.
The Comic-Con panel for "Sons of Anarchy" is this Sunday, so you can expect some more news and hopefully some new footage by the end of the weekend. As for now, you can watch the "Sons of Anarchy" season 5 teaser if you haven't already.
