The coming premiere of FX's top drama "Sons of Anarchy" has everyone guessing where showrunner Kurt Sutter is driving the MC drama, post-prison time for Charlie Hunnam's character Jax and the rest of the club.

Some casting news, it was discovered that storyline featuring Debi Mazar as Carmen, a parole officer, has been put on hold due to time constraints in the overall arc for season 4.

Sutter confirmed these changes to me this morning.  "Unfortunately, Debi's character [Carmen] was cut because of time.  We just didn't have the minutes in the episodes to play that arc out in fully-realized way.  I love Debi, and think she'd be an awesome addition to the show.  My hope is to bring her back in some capacity in future seasons."

At the recent Comic Con, FX closed with a full house welcoming Kurt Sutter, Charlie Hunnam, Katey Sagal, and Ron Perlman and even new cast member Christopher “Filthy Phil” Reed.

FX wheeled out a new promo teaser for the series, and the cast revealed some slight spoilers. Courtesy of our friends Sean B. and Ernie E. at BuzzFocus.com, you can expect:

Gemma's a hot Grandma x 2: Family man again as Jax and Tara’s baby is born.

Otto has some nice up front scenes in the season.

Kozak joins SAMCRO full-time

David Hasselhoff is set to shine as a porn star. 

Wedding Bells for Opie and Lyla

Danny Trejo is added to the mix in Charming, and Rockmond Dunbar is the new law man. Chief Unser aligns a bit more with SAMCRO.

Stay tuned for more as await the long-awaited premiere on September 6 on FX.
