We study theoretically the effects of interfacial Rashba and Dresselhausspin-orbit coupling in superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor (S/F/S)Josephson junctions---with allowing for tunneling barriers between thelayers---by solving the Bogoljubov-de Gennes equation for a realisticheterostructure and applying the Furusaki-Tsukada technique to calculate theelectric current at a finite temperature. The presence of spin-orbit couplingsleads to out- and in-plane magnetoanisotropies of the Josephson current, whichare giant in comparison to current magnetoanisotropies in similar normal-stateferromagnet/normal metal (F/N) junctions. Especially huge anisotropies appearin the vicinity of $ 0 $-$ \pi $ transitions, caused by the exchange-splitbands in the ferromagnetic metal layer. We also show that the direction of theJosephson critical current can be controlled (inducing $ 0 $-$ \pi $transitions) by the strength of the spin-orbit coupling and, more crucial, bythe orientation of the magnetization. Such a control can bring newfunctionalities into Josephson junction devices.
