True Blood Season 6: Luke Grimes Cast as Vampire James

More True Blood season 6 news has come our way from TV Line!  On the heels of Karolina Wydra’s casting as vampire Violet comes another. Remember the vampire named Wes from the casting call we posted about episode 6×06, “Do You Feel Me?” Actor Luke Grimes from ABC’s Brothers and Sisters has taken on the role only now the character is referred to as vampire James. He is described as:

“A circa ’70s-made vamp who is smart, spiritual and emotionally deeper than any other bloodsucker we’ve seen before. Picture a cross between Jim Morrison and Gary Clark Jr. with even more of a poet’s edge. The dude’s every women’s dream come true, and he doesn’t even know it.”

Per the original casting call, James will reoccur through this season.
