‘True Blood’ Star Joe Manganiello Talks Wolves, Nudity

Filming Sunday’s episode was comfortable considering ‘we’re naked with a wild animal,’ actor tells MTV News. By Kara Warner Joe Manganiello in “True Blood” Photo: HBO One of the many reasons to love HBO’s racy Southern vampy soap “True Blood” is for the many ways in which the show’s characters find themselves in uncomfortable situations. Naked. Case in point: the wonderfully entertaining scene from Sunday night’s new episode in which Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) is put in the middle of a confrontation between two naked men, currently confused vampire Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsg

‘True Blood’ Finale Will Have ‘Blood And Bite,’ Stars Say

‘I’d say it’s crazier than last year’s finale,’ one castmember teases. By Kara Warner “True Blood” stars Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin Photo: MTV News There are approximately five days and counting until the third season of HBO’s bloody vamp soap “True Blood” comes to a close. And if the last two season finales are any indication, regardless of any spoilers or speculation that pre-empt Sunday’s episode, we expect that creator Alan Ball will provide us with enough titillating twists and turns to keep us champing at the bit for season four. So until this week’s inevitable cliffhanger and finale overanalyzing, we bring you a few juicy teaser tidbits straight from the stars themselves. “I can tell you that there’s going to be a lot of blood, a lot of sex, and a lot of people are going to die,” Joe Manganiello told MTV News at HBO’s Emmy bash last week. “Blah, blah, blah, vampire stuff.” Will his crazy ex-girlfriend, Debbi Pelt, survive the episode? “That would be a good question for Alan [Ball],” Manganiello said. Deftly deflected, Joe. Fan favorite Nelsan Ellis (a.k.a. Lafayette) agreed about the blood factor. “There’s going to be a lot of blood and bite,” Ellis said. “I’d say it’s crazier than last year’s finale,” Jim Parrack (sweet-as-pie Hoyt Fortenberry) added. “Wilder than last year’s.” Todd Lowe, who plays PTSD-suffering war vet Terry, shared some insight into what his character will be up to. “You’ll probably see some more tears,” Lowe revealed. “And we’ll see where they’re coming from.” Arlene? A possible war flashback? As for Pam, the saucy queen of killer one-liners, actress Kristin Bauer shared that her character will be in the midst of a fight — both physical and emotional. “For Pam, the next two episodes, she’s trying — she’s in an emotional battle and a physical battle trying to save Eric. It’s quite something,” she said. “There are some twists and turns that happen. It’s really clever.” Marshall Alman’s summary wins the award for most succinct tease: “I can tell you that Tommy definitely gives Sam a run for his money.” Meanwhile, Kevin Alejandro wins the award for juiciest tidbit. “You actually find out what kind of person I am,” he said of his character, Jesus. “It’s good stuff.” Regarding his reaction to finding out his character’s new “arc,” Alejandro said it was cool. “I’ve never done anything like it. I kinda knew a little bit about it beforehand, so it’s fun,” he explained. “[I did] a lot of research to figure out how to go this route, but it’s good stuff. I think you’ll be really impressed and surprised.” Finally, the award for most vague tease goes to series stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer. “Lots of stuff [happens]!” Paquin exclaimed. “Some great Eric and Bill moments,” Moyer added. “We’re not supposed to tell you.” Paquin echoed Moyer’s statement, adding that they’d prefer to keep their jobs rather than spoil or reveal any secrets. Good for them; too bad for us. What do you think will happen in the “True Blood” season finale? Share your theories in the comments!

Coming This Summer: True Blood Comic Books

It was already a series of novel. Then, it became one of the most popular shows on TV. Now, True Blood is taking another step toward its goal of dominating the world of pop culture and entertaining: the graphic novel. Look for a set of comic books to be released this July, each featuring the same characters on the HBO drama, but each focusing on different storylines. Says True Blood creator Alan Ball, the man behind the project: “I’m really looking forward to exploring this new format. Comics have no limitations, things that we could never do on the show because of time and budgetary constraints we can do in a comic. The writers of the show and I are closely involved in the creative aspects of the comic, plotting art stories, characters. “They exist in the same world, but it’s a completely different story than what you will see on TV.” In True Blood spoiler news, meanwhile: check out the first photo of Joe Manganiello as the character of Alcide. He’ll play a major role on the show, whose third season kicks off on June 12.
