Alex talked about Eric and Sookie and what he thinks will happen in True Blood Season 5, on the red carpet at the premiere of Straw Dogs in NYC on Thursday night!
Unfortunately, this video is not able to play for some people in some regions.
To paraphrase what is said, MTV.com said this below!
It’s been an interesting season for the frequently nude, ever evolving Eric on “True Blood.” He lost himself for a while there, and while in an amnesiac state, fell for Sookie. And in turn, she kind of fell for him. (Side note: WHO COULD BLAME HER?!) And then, well, he regained his memory and he wasn’t a hoodie-wearing Eric anymore and the bad boy was back.
Except as the charming Alexander Skarsgard told us at the New York premiere for “Straw Dogs,” he may be as bad as ever, but he certainly isn’t the same. “They’re writing the season right now and there’s a great opportunity here ’cause old Eric is back, but it’s not the old Eric, ’cause he still remembers the love with Sookie and that changed him,” he explained, as we swooned.
Facts, these are facts, Alex. So, how does he envision playing Eric next season then? Well, first he recalled one very important moment before launching into some plans for Mr. Northman. “But when [Sookie] walks out, there’s a moment where he’s like ‘I’ve protected myself for centuries and this is what happens when you let a human in or a faerie human in’,” he said. “And so it’s gonna be interesting to see what happens with Eric, if he then goes back to being that guarded, protected guy or if he’ll continue to be open.”

Judging by what Alex says…it looks like things are really up in the air at this point! One thing I can be sure of is – it’s going to be a bumpy ride for us, Eric and Sookie lovers! Hope you’re ready for some angst! (For those who are still going to watch it next season! )
