Entertainment Weekly On-Set Photos and Cast Reflections on Sons of Anarchy’s Wild Ride

Check out the on-set and behind the scenes photos of Charlie and the cast of Sons of Anarchy as well as quotes from the cast as they reflect on their experience working on the show in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly!

Hunnam, pictured with Kim Coates (Tig), says one of his favorite fan encounters happened when he was killing time outside a shop in East L.A. waiting for new tires to be put on his Harley. ”These two dudes were walking down the road. I could see that I had become the object of their focus, but they weren’t looking particularly friendly. These guys had tattoos on their faces and on their necks, and they were jacked up. I’m a pretty good judge of character like that, and these guys were absolutely 100 percent murderers,” he says. ”They were walking towards me, and sure enough they walk right up to me, no smiles or anything, and I was like, ‘Hey, what’s goin’ on fellas?’ ‘Nah, man, we just wanted to say thank you, homes.’ I said, ‘Thank you for what?’ ‘You keep the hood safe on Tuesday nights.’ Which I thought was pretty deep. I definitely got mad street cred from this show.”

EW.com — Sons of Anarchy fans still reeling from the Sept. 30 episode (read our recap) may want to take a beta blocker before reading this week’s cover story, which goes on the set and behind the scenes as the cast and the creator, Kurt Sutter, prepare for an epic ending.

Sons of Anarchy fans still reeling from the Sept. 30 episode (read our recap) may want to take a beta blocker before reading this week’s cover story, which goes on the set and behind the scenes as the cast and the creator, Kurt Sutter, prepare for an epic ending.

Fans also assume Jax will eventually learn the truth. But what will he do? “Anyone else in the world, 100 percent guaranteed he’s gonna murder them in slow and brutal fashion, but it’s his mother, you know. It’s gonna be complicated,” says Hunnam. “I don’t envy Kurt in trying to figure out the right way to approach that.” Sutter already knows how the story will unfold—not that he’s willing to spoil it. “The question is, does Jax ever get the whole truth? Is he supposed to get the whole truth? If he only gets part of the truth, what does that mean? We’ll play with all that stuff,” he says cagily. “I think once he gets information, as much of it as he gets, we’ll see it play out in a different emotional way.”


Not one to totally shy away from dropping bombs, Sutter does reveal that a core character will die in episode nine or 10. He knows that hapless Juice (Theo Rossi) is highest on many fans’ hit lists, which is why he takes great pleasure in announcing that it’s not him. “That’ll f–k people up,” the showrunner says. (Note: This is a good time to remind everyone that there are 13 episodes in the season. #SaveJuice.)

And speaking of pleasure, we’ll leave you with this tease from Hunnam: “Twice I have been completely naked on the set of Sons in season seven. I’m not going to tell you how that came about,” he says. “But you will definitely be seeing my ass again.”
