A couple of days ago I posted the season II True Blood preview and today they have added a new – part time – cast member.
Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Evan Rachel Wood is going to appear in two episodes of the HBO series next season. I thought she was terrific in Thirteen, Across the Universe, and Running with Scissors (haven’t seen The Wrestler).
Her role is described as:
the pivotal role of Sophie-Anne, the vampire Queen of Louisiana!
Who dat, you ask? She’s a 500-year-old vampire from France who is charming, wily, ruthless and wise. She’s a consummate diplomat who has (or had) many of history’s most famous people on speed dial.
It is going to be very interesting to see how Alan Ball is going to write up the Queen in True Blood! I just hope he does not follow the book and keeps developing the love story between Bill and Sookie! Can’t wait for season 2!
