On Season 3 of the hit HBO television series True Blood, actor Denis O’Hare plays Russell Edgington, the flamboyant and deadly vampire king of Mississippi. As one of the oldest and most commanding vampires on the continent, the King is both terrifying and dangerous, with little regard for others, unless they benefit him, in some way.

After the shocking events of the last episode, Episode 9, “Everything is Broken,” sees a grief-stricken Russell vow revenge against his foes, vampire and human. His actions will make him a very different character, for the remainder of Season 3. In a recent interview, Denis O’Hare spoke exclusively to Collider about how he was offered this role on the series without having to audition, developing the look and sound of the character, working with this incredibly talented cast and getting used to talking with fangs.

He also gave some hints as to what viewers can expect for the rest of the season, revealed that his storyline is definitely left open to return for Season 4 and talked about his role as a Roman soldier in the upcoming feature film The Eagle of the Ninth, which he had been shooting in Budapest when he was cast on True Blood.

In the first clip, Sookie works with Bill to clean up a body in her house while saying “Normal couples do not do this, Bill Compton.” The vampire snaps back, “What would you rather be doing?

Those hungry for some “The Vampire Diaries” may crave on the first promotional photos for season 2. The pictures set was released for the show’s first episode which is called “The Return” and is scheduled to air September 9 at 8/7c on The CW.

In the upcoming season, the appearance of the villainous Katherine in Mystic Falls throws a wrench into the love triangle between Stefan, Damon, and Elena, and the other residents of Mystic Falls must choose sides as they fall victim to a new breed of danger. New and unexpected friendships will be forged, allies will become enemies, and hearts will be broken.

Stefan and Damon will be forced to face a villain more evil and diabolical than they ever believed possible. And they’ll take their shirts off, frequently. “They” here are werewolves which come in the form of Michael Trevino’s Tyler Lockwood and his family. “Our big new addition is Mason Lockwood, the mayor’s much younger and cooler brother, who has been estranged from the family,” exec producer Julie Plec said. “His return introduces a lot of questions about what is so special about that creepy Lockwood family.”
