Grant Bowler, King Russell’s head werewolf, Cooter from Season 3 of True Blood is going to head his own show. He will star in Syfy’s “Defiance.”
Defiance, is an ambitious project that will supplement a Trion Worlds game of the same name with a TV program on the science fiction and fantasy network.
Grant Bowler is set to play Chief Lawkeeper Jeb Nolan in the futuristic science fiction show set on Earth. If Bowler’s name sounds familiar, you have likely caught him either on HBO’s True Blood or ABC’s Ugly Betty. However, his role on Syfy’s Defiance will be a far cry from the suave swindler he played on Betty and the werewolf pack leader Bowler played on True Blood. This time around, Bowler is playing a good guy living in Defiance, a town in the future set up over the remains of St. Louis. Deadline is reporting Bowler’s character’s job will be to keep the peace between the human and alien factions living in Defiance. It seems like it will be a difficult task, but he will be helped by mayor Amanda Peirkoff, whom the Chief Lawkeeper may also be hopping between the sheets with.
