If you have noticed nothing else about the world of True Blood it in its brand new third season, it is that werewolves are now very predominant. In fact, there has been a werewolf in every episode of the third season thus far. There has been one pack that stands out amongst the rest: Cooter's pack. This is the group that is seemingly responsible for the abduction of Bill and that works the vampire King of Mississippi. This is the same pack that has been labeled as "Neo-Nazis." Recently, TV Guide has had the chance to ask a few questions to Grant Bowler, the actor responsible for bringing Cooter to life. What can you tell us about Cooter and his pack? "Cooter is a joy to play. I play him like a redneck Romeo. These werewolves have a very strong agenda; they're not just kicking around looking for someone to beat on."What can we expect between Cooter and Bill?
"It starts off professional, but it gets personal very, very quickly. They just hate each others' guts and need each other dead."Were you a fan of the show before signing on?
"Yes. I felt like Alan was writing a comedy - like the world's darkest comedy. And I loved it."What's it been like acting in some of those really dark, graphic scenes?
"The amazing thing about True Blood is how far they're prepared to go. I've never heard one of the directors, or Alan, or any of the writers once say, 'uh, that's going too far.' I think that's what unique to the show."What was it like on set with that cast?
"I think there were 34 actors and every one of them was as sharp as a tack, perfectly cast, and brilliant at what they do...It's very laid-back, and they laugh their butts off...that material is so dark and so fraught. They just laugh from dawn until the next dawn."Any teasers?
"Expect stuff out of Sookie that you've never seen before...she's a lot more special than you think."Source: TVGuide.com (Photo: HBO, Inc. Screencap by: James)
