True Blood has made its first major Season 6 hire, and it?s pretty bloody fangtastic. Acting vet Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner) is joining the HBO smash as a series regular, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Hauer is well known for his portrayal of Blade Runner?s Roy Batty, a renegade robot trying to evade capture in Ridley Scott?s classic sci-fi film. But the Dutch actor has a varied resume that includes parts in movies like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Batman Begins and Sin City and guest roles in TV?s Smallville and Alias. In 1988, he won a Golden Globe for his work in the TV movie Escape From Sobibor. True Blood?s sixth season is slated to premiere in June.

If he's not Warlow I will be surprised, he's perfect!

Move over, Bill. And Eric. And Alcide. There?s a new man in Sookie?s life ? and he?s putting down stakes in Bon Temps.

True Blood has tapped English actor Rob Kazinsky (EastEnders) to join the Season 6 cast as a series regular, TVLine has learned.

Kazinsky ? whose biggest TV credit stateside was an arc as a doctor on Brothers & Sisters ? will play Ben, a highly charismatic faerie who takes a liking to Sookie (and vice-versa) and helps Sookie and Jason delve deeper into the mystery of their parents? murders.

This marks True Blood?s second major Season 6 hire. As TVLine reported last month, acting vet Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner) has also come on board in the series regular role of Macklyn, a mysterious and sinister figure with deep ties to Sookie and Jason.

True Blood?s sixth season is slated to premiere in June.

The title of True Blood episode 6.01 will be "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood."
Three co-star roles are being cast for the episode: two Caddo Parish sheriff deputies, for a scene in which they politely pay Sam a visit at his house; and a male Authority guard, who sees something he can't believe in the AHO Control Room.

The second episode of the sixth season, entitled "Here Comes the Sun", will reportedly feature the debuts of the following characters:

- Niall's protective mother (from a flashback scene set in 3500 B.C., in which a young Niall also appears)

- A prostitute named Veronica (a guest star role) who makes money by letting vampires feed on her

- A few 20-something "Occupy Wall Street" types (recurring)

- Willa Burrell, who is Governor Burrell's (played by Arliss Howard) daughter, and who disagrees with her father's agenda (recurring)

- Maggie, is 35, pregnant, and convinced that her husband left her to raise their child by herself (possibly recurring)

Bon Temps is about to bear witness to quite an anomaly: a vampire with more substance than style.

True Blood has tapped Brothers & Sisters alum Luke Grimes play the recurring role of James, a circa ?70s-made vamp who is smart, spiritual and emotionally deeper than any other bloodsucker we?ve seen before, TVLine has learned exclusively.

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.

Grimes, who spent two seasons on Brothers & Sisters as William Walker?s love child Ryan, is set to debut at the midway point of the HBO hit?s sixth season (which is slated to premiere in June).

Case in point: Karolina Wydra ? who played Dominika, the convenient bride of Hugh Laurie?s titular doc on Fox?s House ? is joining True Blood?s sixth season as a badass vampire, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Wydra?s recurring character, Violet, is described as a strong, sexy, possibly dangerous vamp on par with the Eric Northmans and Bill Comptons of the world.

TVLine has learned exclusively that Anna Camp has signed on to reprise her role as anti-vamp puritan Sarah Newlin for a guest stint.

Camp, who?s currently juggling roles on Fox?s Mindy Project and CBS? Vegas, floated the possibility of a Sarah comeback earlier this year, telling TVLine that her character has ?a lot of unfinished business.?

No doubt at the top of her to-do list is confronting ex-husband and former Fellowship of the Sun co-head Steve (Michael McMillian), who is now an out-and-proud gay man and a vampire.

Don?t be surprised if she also finds time to reconnect with ex-flame Jason, which would put her at odds with his current love, Jessica. (Anna Camp going head-to-head with Deborah Ann Woll? Count. Us. In.)

True Blood?s sixth season kicks off Sunday, June 16 at 9/8c.

"We prefer prophet. Bill's more than just vampire and has powers we've never seen a vampire have. Bill and Sookie are not going to get on so hot. But their not getting on is kind of awesome... Warlow is the oldest vampire we've met. Killing the Stackhouses - that was nothin'!... [sookie is] looking to date somebody with whom she has more in common [than with Eric]."

Warlow older than Russell? :o

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
