True Blood's Leading Characters Rank High as Sexy Beasts

A TV Guide Special Ranks TV's Hottest Vamps, Wolves & Mutants

They're sexy. They're sultry. They're brooding. They're different. Everyone wants to either date one or be one. TV Guide Special - Sexy Beasts: Vamps, Wolves, & Mutants has ranked the sexiest beasts on TV, with True Blood characters tipping the scale with some of the hottest beasts out there. So, who is THE sexiest beast on TV? Want a hint? He said this in season 3: "You're going to invite me in so I can protect you. Or have passionate, primal sex with you. Or how about both?"

A Look at Some of the Sexiest Beasts

Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) - X-Men Origins: the perfect blend of utter hotness and humor, not to mention those abs. And arms. Katherine Pierce (Nina Dobrev) - Vampire Diaries: she's ruthless and vicious and devastatingly good looking. Alcide Herveaux (Joe Manganiello) - True Blood: seriously, has hairy and brawny ever looked so delicious? Alcide will protect you, he'll keep you warm, and he'll keep a smile on your face by keeping his shirt off. (Joe Manganiello's part is at the very beginning of this video clip.) Alice (Milla Jovovich) - Resident Evil films: she's got long legs and killer thighs, and she wears skimpy clothing to kill zombies. Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) - True Blood: she's without a doubt the prettiest telepath around, and she's also a sexy waitress in a tight white t-shirt and short shorts. But, don't take her cute southern charm too lightly because she's fiercely loyal and has no problem kicking some butt. Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) - True Blood: a dark, brooding, Southern gentleman, Bill will always open the door for you, run a bath to help you relax, and aggressively rip your clothes off in the bedroom. (Stephen Moyer's part of the video is also right at the beginning of the clip.) Storm (Halle Barry) - XMen: Hottest. Weather woman. Ever. Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) - Twilight: his to die for smolder has women from the age of 11 to 65 swooning and sighing, but it's his romantic side (and hair) that truly has women wishing their names were Bella. Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder) - Vampire Diaries: dark hair, blue eyes and mystique make this vampire incredibly erotic.

The #1 Sexiest Beast is...

Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgard): no one has ever made the act of sucking blood more sexy than True Blood's Eric Northman. He's got swagger like no other vampire on TV and he knows how to get his girl(s). He's basically the perfect package, all wrapped up in a tall, Viking, blond suit. I mean, did you see that rear view in episode 1 of season 3? And those abs? Yeah, he's pretty much perfection. (Check out Alexander Skarsgard at approximately the 3:40 mark.) What do you think? Did TV Guide get it right? Who's your sexy beast? Source: youtube.com — TV Guide Special - Sexy Beasts: Vamps, Wolves & Mutants (Photo Credit: Entertainment Weekly, Alternet.com, Smart CoOkie)

Kwanten on Manson Role: I'm Not in this Business to Make Easy Choices

Ryan Kwanten opens up about his film characters and why he chooses them:

In a video interview while promoting his new Australian western, 'Red Hill,' (Release date: Nov. 4) True Blood's Jason, Ryan Kwanten, explained more about why he chose to star in the upcoming Charles Manson film, "The Family." The fellow most of us know as good-guy brother to Sookie Stackhouse, explained that he's 'not in this business to make easy choices,' and that he'd like to (take roles) that inspire him. When asked by AP what motivates him to chose to portray the characters he does Kwanten said, '(Manson) is an iconic character who is extremely captivating.'  He continued, "I don't think his story has been depicted properly in a feature film.'  Kwanten went on to explain that he and director Scott Kosar wish to 'make a film that humanizes the victims.' In Hollywood for the Red Hill premiere on Halloween night, being supported by several True Blood costars, Kwanten continues to stay busy in promotion of Red Hill, a "Revenge Western" film, that he explains, "will scare you.''

Any Scoop On True Blood, Season 4?

When queried about True Blood Season four, Kwanten explained that he "knows nothing about season 4." Kwanten seems to prefer "not knowing" as character Jason Stackhouse, too. The Aussie-born & bred actor describes Jason as "not the most analytical guy," and "cerebrally challenged" but, he continued, 'It's important to me that (Jason) stay as naive and vulnerable as possible' as there is 'a manliness to being vulnerable; there's power and manliness in expressing emotion,' traits that he believes Jason has and he wishes to keep as pure as possible. When the interviewer suggested that the Jason Stackhouse character was 'clueless,' Kwanten replied, '(Jason) may be clueless but he wears his heart on his sleeve. He's a good man at the bottom of it.' Kwanten did reveal that season 4 True Blood filming commences on December 1 and that he'll probably see his script for the first time about a week or two before shooting gets underway.

True Blood's Russell Edgington is a Top TV Monster

Television has a long list of scary characters. So how well does True Blood rate in the scheme of thing?

[caption id="attachment_17050" align="alignright" width="400" caption=""Now, it's time for the weather, Tiffany!""][/caption] To  honour Halloween, TV Squad has announced the scariest TV monsters of all time. And it seems that True Blood's King of Mississippi, Russell Edgington has rated rather well on the fright-o-meter. While the article lists only six, Russell, from Season three of True Blood, comes in at number four, ahead of Lost's Smoke Monster and the mutants from the original V. It appears that this newcomer to our small screens with his progressively scary newsreading abilities is enough to scare us in the middle of the night. But while the catch phrase: "Now, it's time for the weather, Tiffany," will eat into our nightmares for quite some time, there were some monsters who were considered scarier than Russell. Number three was the observers from Fringe, which was beaten by the emotionless child, Anthony Fremont from The Twilight Zone. Taking the top spot as scariest TV monster was the flukeman from The X Files. So will True Blood be able to top the list next year?

Evan Rachel Wood Set to Work with George Clooney

From Vampire Queen to Seductive Political Intern

The talented Evan Rachel Wood left True Blood fans speechless with her impeccable interpretation of  Louisiana vampire Queen Sophie Anne. Evan Rachel has been growing more popular with every role she has taken and while True Blood fans want to see more of her in Bon Temps, they can't help but admire her in the films she's been in. Recently it's been announced that Evan Rachel will be starring in the Ides of March alongside Ryan Gosling, Paul Giamatti, and Marisa Tomei. The star studded cast will be directed by none other than George Clooney. Shooting will begin in February in Michigan and Ohio. The movie follows a young press spokesman who falls into backroom politics, treacherous manipulations and even seduction. Clooney not only will direct but will also play a presidential candidate running on the Democratic ticket. Evan Rachel Wood plays the seductive intern focused on ensnaring the press spokesman played by Ryan Gosling. Clooney, along with Grant Heslov, adapted Ides of March from the Broadway play Farragut North and the film will be produced by Smoke House and Appian Way. With such a great production team, director and an amazing cast, this film is sure to bring home an Oscar or two. While we love her work in True Blood, we must admit Evan Rachel Wood was made for film. She's brought back the talent and beauty of old Hollywood; we can't wait to see her in Ides of March. Bring home an Oscar, Evan! Source: www.variety.com — Clooney to direct Gosling in 'Ides of March' (Photo Credit: indyweek.com)
