Okay, things are starting to get a little scary on HBO’s True Blood, if all the rumors flying about are to be believed!
Firstly, we have WetPaint speculating that with all the movie roles Alexander Skarsgard is taking on lately, there could be the possibility that he may request his character Eric Northman be killed off in Season 6.
While fans of the books are quick to point out that the Eric Northman character survives book 6 (Definitely Dead) and therefore should survive this season. Although, let’s face it, after last season, it’s become very clear that HBO are not following the Charlaine Harris’ story lines from her series very closely at all.
Next we have a couple of teasers from cast members:
Ryan Kwanten (Jason Stackhouse), according to E!Online, has the following to say about Season 6:
“There are more deaths. Some favorite characters may not last.”
And then the same website follows up with this quote from Anna Camp (Sarah Newlin) to Marc Malkin at the MTV Movie Awards, just two days later:
“There’s a lot of death. I’ve had sad read-throughs recently. “It’s too sad. Like, some people cried.”
Now, add into the mix the fact that the title of Episode 7 is ‘The Funeral’ and, potentially, we now have a lot to worry about – and Season 6 hasn’t even started yet!
Or is this just all hype to get fans (old and new) geared up for the next season? Could they possibly be stirring up the Team Eric Northman fanbase? I guess we’ll just have to wait until June to find out.
Let us know your thoughts on these rumors in the comments below.
