“Sons of Anarchy” returns and season 4 has Jax and Tara now a family of four, as Tara gave birth while Jax was away in prison. Jax is getting released along with the rest of the “SOA” gang as the season opens. A lot of the concentration is going to be on Jax and Tara and the life changes they need to make, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
The Hollywood Reporter recently interviewed Maggie Siff, who plays Tara on “SOA.” You might remember Maggie from a guest star role on “Mad Men” a few seasons back. She played a department store heir who had an affair with Don Draper, the star of “Mad Men.”
Her high class spoiled, but lonely, rich girl routine was a far cry from her role as Jax’s old lady in “Sons of Anarchy.” She was made for her “SOA” role, which she brings believability to. While there was nothing wrong with her role in “Mad Men,” Tara is Maggie’s masterpiece.
Maggie tells the Hollywood Reporter what “Sons of Anarchy” fans have to look forward to from Tara Knowles this season. She says the role of being a mother really grounds the character and she talks about the kind of “unconditional love” that is very deeply ingrained in Jax and Tara.
Being a mother and loving Jax as much as she does, “it gives her (Tara) a greater purpose to want to get out of the life,” Maggie says. “There is something really nice about playing a love story, even though it is in the middle of insanity.”
Maggie was asked if she feels a lot of pressure in her role, which is part of a love story and she says, “it’s really fun working with Charlie (Charlie Hunnam who plays Jax) and things just roll along nicely” so they don’t get overwhelmed.
Maggie Siff is very happy with how the fourth season of “SOA” turned out.
Connecticut fans of “Sons of Anarchy,” can watch the show on Tuesday nights at 10pm EST, on Connecticut’s FX channel.
