Kurt Sutter Announces Plans For Sons Of Anarchy Movie Starring Charlie Hunnam, Brad Pitt
(snip) Sons of Anarchy ran for seven seasons on FX, from 2008-2014, and in the process built a huge following. Sutter said the film will star Charlie Hunnam, who played the lead character Jax Teller, as well as Ryan Hurst who played Opie Winston, and Katey Sagal as Gemma Teller. The film, which is a prequel to the storyline of Sons will also introduce fans to Jaxs father, John, who will be played by Brad Pitt.
I am most excited about bringing Brad (Pitt) on as John Teller, he is absolutely perfect for the role. The movie will take place from the day Jax was born, and leads up to the era just before Sons Of Anarchy began as a series.
Sutter also said that he is really happy to bring Ryan Hurst back as Opie Winston, and hopes fans will forgive him for killing Opie off. Man I tell ya, when we killed Opie off, it was like the thing turned real. Ive never gone public with this, but Ive had people get really crazy when they see me in public, said Sutter. They shout at me, and they get angry - You shouldnt have killed Ope! I hope you rot in Hell!, that sort of thing. I had people try to run me off the road when they recognized me, although that just might be because Im kind of a dangerous driver. Anyway, my hope is that this film will help them cope.
Sutter says pre-production on film will begin in the middle of 2015, and will begin shooting sometime in the fall. For a movie of this scope, with this much storyline attached, you should expect to see the film by the end of 2016,

(9,148 posts)Interested to see how Sutter does the Movie version. Really wish he'd have made it into a series again.
Another great storyline I would like to see him do is about Thomas & Able & who they would become as young adults. Like Good & Evil maybe.
Gotta say that I felt a foreboding about little Able at the end of the Son's season." oooo weeee oooo!" ha

(95,337 posts)or it was like watching 'Murder She Wrote' for bikers.
Probably the best reason to watch it was Katey Sagal. It was so good to see her in a role that really allowed her to shine as an actress after years of doing housewife/mom parts in sitcoms.
But sometimes watching it they would be like 'Let's all get on our bikes and go solve this crime' mode and I would turn off like that even if the crimes they were solving were sometimes as bad as the crimes they were committing, it just seemed odd to me.
But I was a good show, just probably not my thing. I was never into the 'gangster' shows.
