True Blood: Season 5 Casting Bits
I’ve had a folder full of casting bits for the show to post for awhile now. I’ve been retweeting them. However with everything so slow as nothing is on, I figured I’d compile them into a post.
The big news is that Christopher Meloni (who left “Law and Order” this year) is officially joining “True Blood” for season 5. He will play “an ancient and powerful vampire who holds the fate of Bill and Eric in his hands.”

Dale Dickey will play Marcus’ mother Annie. She will be performing an important ritual on the show, and will want to avenge Marcus’ death.

Kelly Overton and Louis Herthum have major recurring roles next season as well. Kelly plays a werewolf who has come looking for the old pack leader Marcus (possibly named Rikki). Louis plays a werewolf who takes issue with Alcide as their new leader (possibly named J.D., some think this may be Alcide’s father).
