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

      Exactly. They won't go 100 because current gen consoles are simply too old for any groundbreaking graphics or gaming experience otherwise. They will go with standard (console) price 70 or go with 80 if they really want to go premium. Of course they will have more expensive options too with some useless cosmetics as always.

      Doesn’t surprise me at all. God is light & He gave us life so it sounds almost logical that we would therefore emit a certain amount of light.
