TRUE BLOOD SEASON 5 Villain Revealed?
It looks like a new baddie will be rolling into Bon Temps for True Blood Season 5 and this vamp could be all kinds of bad news because she’s bringing a heaping helping of crazy with her.
Italian actress Valentina Cervi might not be well-known in the States right now but that’s getting ready to change, especially where Trubies are concerned. TVLine brings word that Cervi is joining True Blood during Season 5 as a season regular, only there’s nothing regular about this chick.
Cervi will portray an ancient vampire named Salome, described as being a “world class seductress and fiercely intelligent.” She also happens to have “quite a lot of madness in her.” As if a crazy vampire wasn’t dangerous enough, Salome is also savvy enough to hide her powers when it’s called for so nobody knows exactly how dangerous she is until it’s too late.
Nobody connected with HBO’s True Blood has actually referred to Salome as the new villain for the season but it seems like a safe call to make, considering how she’s described.
Cervi’s presence on the show should definitely shake things up because, once again, True Blood has deviated from the Sookie Stackhouse source material. There isn’t a Salome in the popular Charlaine Harris books so there’s no way to tell how events will unfold on the HBO series, but it sounds like things will be very interesting.
True Blood returns in the summer of 2012.
