The hot, bloody series that is both True Blood on HBO and True Blood in books has settled on the TV version of True Blood's Alcide. He is the sexy werewolf set to show up on season 3.
True Blood's Alcide Herveaux will be played by Joe Manganiello. Those of you who watched season 2 might remember how Sookie Stackhouse's vampire boyfriend Bill Compton had to leave suddenly at the end of the season. Rival vampire Eric will be sending Alcide to protect her while Bill is away on "business."
Despite her love for Bill, Sookie's becomes pretty attracted to Alcide. Thus, True Blood's Alcide Herveaux is an important new character in this season's upcoming episodes. Joe Manganiello is perhaps best known for playing barkeep Owen on "One Tree Hill" and Marshall’s law school pal Brad on "How I Met Your Mother."
Besides True Blood's Alcide, other casting changes so far this offseason have been the addition of Alfre Woodard as Lafyette's mother, and Tara's aunt. Kristin Bauer has become a series regular as Pam, Eric's second-in-command at the vampire bar Fangtasia.
More additions to the True Blood cast include Law & Order alumnus J. Smith-Cameron, who has been cast as the recurring role of Sam's estranged mother, Melinda. Her son will be played by Prison Break's Marshall Allman. James Frain (The Tudors) will play Tara's new vampire love interest, Franklin Mott.
Still to be cast however, on True Blood: Alcide’s on-again, off-again girlfriend Debbie Pelt, a were-lynx. Expect that to happen soon, however.
