A new reson to watch HBO "True Blood": Alexander Skarsgard

[alexandral]

OMPH! I was informed by fabulous the_grynne and fabulous endlessdeep that the role of Eric is NOT missing from HBO's "True Blood" (TV adaptation of "Southern Vampire" book series). On a contrary, it is played by "all your dreams come true at once" Alexander Skarsgard. Who is Scandinavian, good looking to a crazy degree and 6ft 4 inches tall.














PS: Does anyone know any film he is in? Is he any good at acting?

well, the accents in No Country for Old Men are Texan so they are quite different from ones from Louisiana, though there are some areas where Texan and Louisianan accents overlap a bit, though not in the area where True Blood is set. and there are quite a few variations of Louisiana accents and dialects but none of the True Blood actors' accents sound right to me. I could get past the accents if I liked the writing. it is strange to me how off it feels as Ball did grow up in Georgia, I expected something different from him.

However, Eric's accent will be good as he is supposed to be a Viking, so I am safe. :D

heh, well that does sound like a perfect match. he is a gorgeous man, and I do want to check out his film work!

I am already watching "Generation Kill" - I think I will enjoy this one (if Sgt. "Iceman" doesn't die :D) ! So -thank you again!

oh he doesn't. I don't think that is a spoiler as he is a real person, or rather based on a real person. and you don't mind spoilers anyway, right?

I absolutely don't mind spoilers, I rather like them (my impatient nature can't deal with uncertainty!).

THANK YOU SO MUCH!
