Sprague Grayden also lands a role on FOX's 'Sons of Anarchy'

Sprague Grayden, most recently seen on CBS' "Jericho," has landed a recurring role on FOX's "24."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Grayden will play Olivia Taylor, daughter of President Allison Taylor (Cherry Jones) and the nation's first First Husband (Colm Feore).

It's unclear how many episodes Grayden's character will appear in or what sort of inevitable trouble she'll find herself in. The HR story also doesn't say whether or not Olivia will be introduced in the two-hour "24" prequel which will air in November and bridge the long gap between the show's sixth and seventh seasons. Part of the prequel is expected to deal with President Taylor's inauguration.

But the "24" role isn't the only offering on Grayden's plate. The trade paper says that she's also snagged a role in FX's upcoming drama "Sons of Anarchy."

FX has set a fall premiere date for "Sons of Anarchy," which centers on the title motorcycle club's efforts to protect their small town from outside elements, including drug dealers and real-estate developers. Charlie Hunnam, Ron Perlman and Katey Sagal co-star.

Grayden will play Donna Lerner, a biker's wife trying to encourage her ex-con hubby to steer clear of the gang.

Other credits for Grayden include "Weeds," "Over There," Six Feet Under" and "John Doe."
