Alcide Cast On True Blood!

Alcide Cast On True Blood!

Alcide True Blood Ausiello has reported that Joe Manganiello has been cast as Alcide on “True Blood.” “One Tree Hill” fans know him as Owen the bartender.

In the recent days he’s also revealed a few other casting bits. Natasha Alam has been cast as a possible love interest for Eric, playing a dancer at Fangtasia. James Frain has been cast as Franklin Mott, who becomes a vampire love interest for Tara. Finally J. Smith-Cameron will play Sam’s trashy birth mom.

Other casting news . . . Alfre Woodard will play Lafeyette’s mom. Most will remember her as Mrs. Applewhite on “Housewives” (among the millions of other things she’s done). Kristin Bauer who plays Eric’s side kick Pam has been up’ed to a series regular next year.

For some spoilers (provided by a friend whose read the books, I plan to start after Xmas) make the jump for some answers to some of Season 2’s cliffhangers!

Assuming they stay true to the book, Lorena (Bill’s maker) kidnapped him at the end of Season 2, and Sookie is the one to kill her.

Sookie and Bill’s romance is in for trouble when she learns the Queen of Louisiana ordered Bill to return home to Bon Temps and romance Sookie (to get to her powers). Remember, Sookie’s cousin is involved with the Queen.

Sookie’s powers, while not revealed till later books, could be revealed next season. She’s descended from fairies.

The show is deviating by giving Sam a brother and parents, which were never in any of the books.
