Kim Cattrall Will Lead Fox Southern Drama Pilot 'FILTHY RICH'

Deadline reports that Kim Cattrall will lead a soapy new pilot from Tate Taylor, who wrote "The Help."

Written and to be directed by Taylor based on a New Zealand series, Filthy Rich is a larger-than-life Southern gothic dramedy that revolves around two strong, sharp women who will go to any length to protect their loved ones and get their due. When the wealthy CEO of the world's largest Christian network dies in a plane crash, his wife and adult children are stunned to discover he has grown, illegitimate kids who are also in his will. When the steel azalea matriarch of the family tries to pay them to go away, these newly legitimized heirs have very different ideas and insist on not only staying in town but becoming part of THE FAMILY empire.

Cattrall will play Margaret Monroe, the star of a hugely popular lifestyle TV show and the creator of a conservative TV network that she runs with her husband. Cattrall is best known for her role in HBO's Sex and the City, which earned her a Golden Globe and five Emmy nominations.
