The actors from True Blood must get some strange requests from their fans, which include biting! But don’t count on Alexander Skarsgard to live up to the hype. Nope, he won’t bite you, Truebie, so get over it!

Alexander plays the Viking Sheriff of Area Five, Eric Northman. In character, he’s quick to bare his fangs, but in real life, he’s not having any part of it.

While he is grateful for the admiration bestowed upon him by his legion of fans (Team Eric!), he doesn’t want to bite them, as his character most certainly would.

In a new inteview with BlackBook Magazine, he said, “That’s one thing I’ll never really understand. But the main reason I don’t ever do it is because if I do it just once, every single person will be like, ‘Bite me! Bite me! Bite me!’”

He’s right. Once one fan spills the beans that they’ve gotten bitten by Alexander, it’s all over with. Still, there’s one place that he can go and not be troubled by silly requests, his native Sweden. This is where, he says, the folks aren’t stunned by his star power.

He said, “Not a single one of them is impressed by me. They’re happy for me, but they don’t give a f**k about that s**t. They could care less that they’re hanging out with a ‘celebrity.’”

Do you want Alexander to bite you?

Fans of Charlaine Harris’ novels, of which True Blood is based, will relish the fact that the shower scene is happening!

If you’ve read book four, Dead To The World, then you already know that a saucy shower scene was going to happen between Sookie Stackhouse and Eric Northman. Since Alan Ball has really only used the books as a baseline for the show’s plots, we were unsure whether or not the racy scene would make it into the show. Fear not, Truebies, it’s going to happen!

Executive Producer Alan Ball has confirmed the news at this year’s Comic Con. He said, “There will be a moment in the show where Sookie and Eric are together in the shower. But it may not exactly be what happens in the books — it may be weirder and dirtier.”

Weirder and dirtier? I can only imagine! We can’t wait to see what they’ve got in store for us!

Also in the pipeline for season five is how Eric created Pam! And with regard to season four, I’m still left wondering what’s going to happen between Jason and Jessica? He’s had a taste of her blood, so they now have a bond of sorts. But he’s turning into a werepanther. Interesting.

Are you excited to see how it all plays out on the show?

Season four of True Blood is gearing up to premiere on Sunday, June 26th. If you’ve read the books, then you already know that Alan Ball is only using them as a basis for the storylines. But, we’re still hoping for the Sookie and Eric storyline from book four to come alive.

If you haven’t read the books, then these might be spoilers for the upcoming season….so it’s after the jump for the goodies. (continue reading…)

Now that Russell Edgington has been done away with, the vampires of Bon Temps, Louisiana have to win back the good graces of the human population. And it all begins with a smille!

Vampire sheriff of area five, Eric Northman does a campaign video saying that there have been a lot of politicians warning their constituents not to trust vampires, and he just wants the vamps to be treated the same as humans.

Check out the video: (continue reading…)

Alas, waiting for the fourth season of True Blood is almost over and we’ve been treated to new promo trailer for the show!

The promo video, which was just released, shows Sookie, Eric, Bill, Pam and Jessica, showing off their fangs. Also, it gives us a glimpse of Alcide growling with Sookie telling him to “stop making that noise”.

Check it out:

The much anticipated fourth season delves into the storyline of Eric Northman getting amnesia from the witches, while Sookie hides him at her house.

I can’t wait for the show to start already! Waiting is going to suck until June 26th!

The promo for the fourth season of True Blood is here! Woot!

We had to post this for our wonderful friend Misty, who runs our sister site, Tragicomical (and Robyn, too). Misty has been sick lately, so we’re hoping that a good dose of Alexander Skarsgard shirtless as vampire Eric Northman will fix her right up! As for Robyn, she’s just lusting after our man!

Eric is suffering from amnesia in the video below and has forgotten his thousand years of hating all things human. He knows he’s a vampire, but that’s about it!

Check out the video:

Hotness!

In a new interview, True Blood vampire Alexander Skarsgard talked about fame, working Rihanna and Lady Gaga and, of course, being naked for the show.

The important part:

Why do I “love being naked”? [Laughs] Because I was born that way? I didn’t write the scripts but I don’t mind it if it makes sense. It’s about being comfortable and if it makes sense story-wise. The only time it can get awkward is if you feel exploited, like, “Why am I standing here naked?” and I’ve never felt that. There’s always a reason for it on the show and it’s always at great moments: fun, crazy scenes. So I really don’t mind at all. The Rolling Stone cover [see here] just happened on the day. We showed up and we shot very PG-13 with our clothes on for basically the whole day, like six or seven hours. Then towards the end the photographer said, “I have this, these shots are beautiful and the magazine is going to be happy with them but I’d like to try something if you guys are game.” He explained it and it was just one of those things in the moment where we all looked at each other, we’d spent all day with the photographer, we felt comfortable with him, we knew that he was great and the atmosphere was right and we were like, “Fuck it, let’s do it.” No one thought that the magazine would go for it. They want to sell at Walmart. We thought this was going to be too offensive. But I guess they did. [Laughs] I’m glad they did! I liked it a lot. It was definitely more interesting than the safe version…

That is all…

Stephen Moyer has beat out fellow vampire actor Alexander Skarsgard in their Battle Of The Fang. In this battle, the winner gets to choose the slogan for a t-shirt to be worn by the loser. The proceeds of the competition were all donated to charity.

So how did the vampire teams stack up?

Team Bill Compton: $35,043
Team Eric Northman: $34,223

True Blood News reports:

We are proud of ALL the fans that have stepped up and donated to both GulfAid and to SOS Children’s Charities. Of course, we also need to thank Alex Skarsgard and Stephen Moyer for playing along and agreeing to participate in the Battle of the Fang in the first place. Both these guys deserve a round of applause, because their job isn’t done yet. They will each be photographed wearing the appropriate winner/loser t-shirt. Your t-shirt suggestions have been sent to Stephen. He’ll decide which t-shirts need to be created.

Whose team are you on? I’m Team Eric, of course.

True Blood actor Alexander Skarsgard has revealed that he is insecure about his looks and doesn’t understand why people find him attractive. Um…okay, we’ll bite.

He said, “I’m insecure, like most people. I have days where I feel like the ugliest person on the planet. It’s not like I walk in a room and go, ‘Yeah, f**k I’m hot! Totally not.”

He doesn’t??? And just why not?

Also, in other non-related news, there is no new episode of True Blood tonight. So we have to wait a week to find out if Alan Ball is dumb enough to kill off Eric Northman. Ugh, these people.

FYI, see Alex naked here.

The torrid love bird trio on True Blood, Sookie Stackhouse, Eric Northman and Bill Compton all appear naked on the cover of the newest issue of Rolling Stone. And what else is new? Of course, they are all covered in blood.

The cover I want to see is the one with Alexander Skarsgard/Eric Northman, Joe Manganiello/Alcide Herveaux and Jason Stackhouse/Ryan Kwanten nude on the cover.

I think Rolling Stone or some other well respected publication needs to make this happen.

Check out what hot vampire Eric Northman said about covering his junk for the steamy sex scenes on the show, HERE!

True Blood is on tonight and we’ve got some of the goodies from the cast’s appearance at this year’s Comic Con!
