Charlie Hunnam as Jackson 'Jax' Teller


Allow me to introduce you to the main character of ‘Sons of Anarchy’. Portrayed by Charlie Hunnam, Jackson 'Jax' Teller is the son of Gemma Teller Morrow and John Teller.  

After watching the first four seasons of SOA we learn that Jax recently divorced his wife Wendy, whom is pregnant with Jax's first child. In the opening of the season we see Wendy, an ex 'junkie', has relapsed and is found unconscious. Once she is found she is rushed to the hospital for an emergency C-section resulting in baby Abel being born two weeks premature. Jax soon finds out that the baby will need emergency heart surgery as he has conceived the genetic heart condition that runs through the family. The surgeon who will perform the surgery is coincidentally Jax's first love Tara. She requested to do the surgery. The baby was expected that the baby had minimal chance of surviving the surgery, but the baby pulled through.

Jax is first seen as preventing any emotional bond with the baby as he is unsure of its survival after the surgery. Tara’s relationship with members of the club is seen as a bit uneasy due to occurrences in the past but Tara is eventually accepted by the rest of the clubs members. In time Jax and Tara bond over baby Abel end up back together and raise Abel as a family.

As Jax continues reading the journals that his father left for him, he discovers that the true nature of the club was to create a brother hood among the men. As the show progresses we see how John Tellers plan for the club was demolished after his tragic, and soon discovered, suspicious death. Jax finds it in his heart to change the club back to what it was truly meant for, even if that means choosing between his new family and the club. 

This Video pretty much sums up Jax Teller.
