What lies ahead for Jax Teller at the head of the SAMCRO table?

If the first official trailer for Sons of Anarchy Season 5 is to be believed, one simple word/answer: trouble.

How else to interpret the teaser posted last night by creator Kurt Sutter, which depicts the new club President crashing through a highway guardrail as Gemma, Maggie and others look on? Watch now and listen closely to the lyrics:

This is what we know about Season 5:

• Jimmy Smits will guest star as Nero, an unexpected mentor of sorts for Jax.
• Harold Perrineau will come on board as Damon Pope.
• Ashley Tisdale will play an escort on at least two episodes.

Look for plenty more scoop and Sons of Anarchy spoilers to be unveiled at Comic-Con next week. We'll be on the red carpet with the cast and crew. What questions do you want to see asked of them?
