With the last season of our beloved HBO vampire show, ‘True Blood’, ending next year it’s time for us to start saying good-bye to the characters we have come to love. Stephen Moyer (Bill Compton) was able to take some time to talk to Huffpost TV about the last season of the show. Of course the first thing we all want to know about is how is he feeling going into the last season?
I don’t know anything and I’m directing the first episode. I haven’t gotten a script yet and we start shooting in January. I’m really excited, really sad. It’s just a group of people that I absolutely love and it’s certainly the happiest and warmest set I’ve ever been on, so that’s going to be hard to walk away from.
Now that Bill isn’t the bad guy any more could Sookie (Anna Paquin) and Bill reconcile?
I don’t know whether it’s possible given everything that’s happened. The first mistakes he made at the beginning of the relationship were definitely mistakes that were trying to protect her. It’s not anything he was doing that was necessarily bad. He was sent there, but he kept that from her purely because he didn’t want to hurt her and he didn’t know he was going to fall in love with this girl. I think that he will always be and always was a key for Sookie to unlocking her womanhood and who she became and who she is and who she was. She won’t forget that part of him. Whether there’s any possibility of anything else, I don’t know.
Does Stephen have any strange fantasy about Bill and Eric (Alexander Skarsgård)?
Alex and I have been pushing for an Eric-Bill love scene for a long time, but they always said no. But our dream would be for my football team, West Ham United, to play his Swedish team, and would end up in some match-up that Bill and Eric happen to be able to get to.
It was nice to read his thoughts on the last season of ‘True Blood’ and also take the time out of rehearsal for ‘The Sound of Music’ to talk.
The last season of ‘True Blood’ will be airing next year on HBO, and ‘The Sound of Music’ is going to be airing this Thursday, December 5th on NBC.
