Goodbye Bon Temps..05/17/2012 Author Charlaine Harris who writes the popular Southern Mysteries about Sookie Stackhouse, which True Blood is based on. Is finally putting the finishing touches on the last book in the series for it's debut in 2013. It'll be sad not to have new stories, adventures to read about Sookie in the future. But at least we still have the tv show to enjoy! Mourning has broken out among fans of the telepathic Louisiana waitress Sookie Stackhouse after author Charlaine Harris announced that next year would see the publication of the final novel in her Southern Vampire Mysteries series. Harris, whose bestselling books about vampires, werewolves and other supernatural beings in the small southern town of Bon Temps was made into the popular True Blood television series, has previously hinted that she was planning to bring the story to a close. But she made the definitive announcement on her Facebook page yesterday, telling readers that the 13th and final Sookie Stackhouse book, Dead Ever After, would be on sale next May. She immediately drew more than 5,000 "likes" and hundreds of comments from her fans, from: "Say it ain't so!" to "How can you do that to us!" "I don't have anything left to tell. After the last book, I'll have said everything I have to say about Sookie," Harris said last week. "Really, I think it would be doing readers a disservice to continue writing a character when my heart wasn't in it. I've loved writing Sookie, but if you see the end of the road, you see the end of the road." Harris's other series include the Harper Connelly books, about a woman who can tell the cause of death for any dead body, the Shakespeare mysteries, about amateur sleuth Lily Bard, and the Aurora Teagarden books, about a mystery-solving Georgian librarian. Her next project will be a graphic novel, Cemetery Girl, a collaboration with author Christopher Golden in which an amnesiac awakes to find herself living in a graveyard. But for now Harris is mainly concerned with tying up loose ends in Bon Temps for the cast of characters she has followed for 12 years. "I don't know if I can get everything wound up. It just feels like a very big challenge," she told the Houston Press. "It's so hard. I find myself wanting to bring back random people, just so I can say, 'Here they are. Here's what happened.' And then I think, it's not going to be a very cohesive book if I have all these guest appearances. I really have to stick to the core of the book; I can't just throw people in there to give them a wave of the hand. Maybe there'll be an addendum on my website or as an ebook, something where I say, 'This is what happened to Harry Bellefleur!' or 'This is what happened to Tanya.' I don't want to leave anybody frustrated." SOURCE Scott Foley talks True Blood experience..05/17/2012 Actor Scott Foley dished a little bit on his experience being on HBO's True Blood set for the upcoming Season. Can't wait to see more of him from the little taste we got in last season's finale. “I am going to be on ‘True Blood.’ It was really exciting,” he told Hollywood Crush on the red carpet where he was promoting his other small-screen venture, “The Goodwin Games.” “I had a great time shooting it. I spent the last nine months shooting this season and it was very secretive, very sexy, a lot of blood and fangs.” If you'll recall the closing episodes of season four, Scott plays war vet Patrick, who comes to town to meet up with old pal Terry. While he wouldn’t share much else about what kind of trouble could be brewing with his character in Bon Temps, he did tease that he gets sexy with someone on the show and that we might even get to see the Full Foley. “I’m not sure,” he said when asked if he has any sexy moments with one of the town's sexy residents. “It’s up to you when you watch it.” So, will he get naked considering, like, every guy on the show gets naked? “There you go,” he joked. Scott had an additional message for anyone excited to see him on the HBO series, kicking off again June 10. “‘True Blood' and ‘The Goodwin Games’ are polar opposites of each other,” he explained about his new Fox family comedy. “But equally mysterious and exciting. I’m not a vampire or a werewolf or a fairy or a shape-shifter or a were-panther... Well, you’ll have to watch and find out because it’s pretty interesting.” SOURCE It's coming....05/14/2012 HBO has released a quick teaser for the new Season of True Blood and it seems to be all about humans VS vampires. Who will win at the end of it? I for one can't wait to find out ;) Well nice to meet you too...05/06/2012 Finally HBO has given us a small glimpse of Law & Order actor Christopher Meloni as a big time vampire for Season 5! He definitely looks intense to me.. Coming soon...05/02/2012 Finally some promotion advertising coming out for Season 5! Blood tears eh? I'm guessing it will be an emotional and maybe sad Season?! SOURCE Fifty shades of.....Skarsgard?05/02/2012 Actor Alexander Skarsgard spoke to Access Hollywood to promote his new action film 'Battleship' and was poked on his knowledge of the film adaptation being made for the dominating, erotic and trendy new novel 'Fifty shades of Grey'. Although I pray he was joking about wanting to take on the lead role in it. I won't lie I'd definitely pop it into my dvd player as a guilty pleasure down the road. But the odd chance he's serious I hope the script, screenplay is a lot better written then the book. (no offence!) He also speaks about the great addition of Law &Order alumni Chris Meloni! “Where do I sign?” the “True Blood” hunk smiled. Shaun made sure to prep Alexander on many facets of the character, created by E. L. James, and he reacted to one of the more titillating details, one that he’s already dealt with on his hit HBO show. “He’s got a sex chamber? My character has that on ‘True Blood.’ He’s got his little dungeon,” Alexander said, referring to vampire Eric Northman. “I was born to play that part,” he added with a grin, of Christian. “True Blood” will return for its fifth season on June 10, and joining the fold is Christopher Meloni, who Alexander said is a great addition to the cast. “He’s amazing,” Alexander said of the former “Law & Order: SVU” star who returns to HBO (he previously starred in prison drama “Oz”) in the new role of Roman, who is part of “True Blood’s” Vampire Authority. “It wasn’t easy. His first day was basically him coming in. It was five pages of dialogue. Half of it was in Aramaic,” the Swede continued. “That was like, ‘Welcome to the show, Chris.’ But he’s a trooper, a really amazing actor -- obviously -- and a great guy. We’ve had a lot of fun together on the show.” Another star Alexander had fun with is Rihanna, who he joins for several scenes in her feature film debut, “Battleship,” which hits theaters on May 18. “She’s pretty amazing,” he said. But the actor noted that he wasn’t surprised by how easily Rihanna took to acting. “I was honestly not surprised. Just like, watching her on stage, or her videos, you can tell [from] her energy and her charisma and personality, you know that she’s gonna be great in that part,” he said. “I knew that and she really is.” SOURCE Is this the end? My only friend?04/30/2012 Things are not good for Eric & Pam it seems in this behind the scenes peek at the friendship. Sounds like the rise of Russell is putting a damper on their maker relationship these days. Will he release Pam or not? I'm hoping no because I love them together too much! |
