Update! Only 3 hours left!
As you may have seen, the fourth episode of True Blood was dedicated to Jesse James Cartwright. Jesse was part of the True Blood transportation crew and lost his life earlier this year, leaving behind his wife and three children. True Blood Staff, Cast and Fans are uniting to raise funds for Jesse’s family.
We have more news on the subject…
Last week TrueBlood-News, Sam-Tramell.com, AlexSkarsgard.net & FYeahJoeManganiello sent over $3,000 to The Jesse James Cartwright Fund. We successfully auctioned off the script for season 3 Ep 302, “Beautifully Broken” signed by Alexander Skarsgard with a final total of $3,250! How wonderful and thank you to the fans for participating!
UPDATE: We’ve talked to Sam and he’s game for doing more! This week we’ll be auctioning off a Tru Blood bottle signed by NOT ONLY SAM HIMSELF but 6 other cast members from the show…
THE AUCTION READS:
This is an authentic bottle of Tru Blood signed by Sam Trammell (Sam Merlotte), Kristin Bauer van Straten (Pam de Beaufort), Allan Hyde (Godric), Nelsan Ellis (Lafayette Reynolds), Todd Lowe (Terry Bellefleur), Brit Morgan (Debbie Pelt) and Ashley Jones (Daphne Landry) ((see photos)). Signings were witnessed by us personally (we run fan sites for Sam Trammell, Alexander Skarsgard and True Blood).
This glass bottle is from 2009 and remains unopened (I would NOT recommend drinking the contents, strictly for collectors). What a great addition to your collection of True Blood Memorabilia or the perfect gift for the person who’s impossible to buy for that has a TRUE obsession for the show!
Description of the drink from the HBO site…
Sink your fangs into a bottle of Tru Blood, a delicious blood orange carbonated drink inspired by Bill’s favorite synthetic blood nourishment beverage. Tart and slightly sweet, Tru Blood pours like a regular soda but appears stormy and mysterious when poured into a glass. Bottoms up – and vampires, remember to drink responsibly!
This auction is to benefit Jesse’s family.

Find out more about Jesse, then please, if you can donate to the family directly.

Our friends at AllanHyde.com have interviewed Allan Hyde, and we are delighted to hear about his latest projects and his experience of portraying Godric once again. Glad to know he visited my whereabouts while recording a gastronomy documentary in Barcelona. Damn Allan! You should phone me the next time!
You are returning as Godric for the fourth season of True Blood. How was it portraying him again? You must be excited!
“It’s always fun bringing Godric back to life. I love the character and it’s always fun how easy it is to remember who he is once in costume and all.
Both sides are exciting to explore. I must say I really enjoyed playing the super calm Godric who was in control but also it’s fun to play up the evil. Godric is so old that he could have very well be full on evil and nasty at some point. It’s fun having the opportunity to play whatever feeling all out.”
You didn’t attend the True Blood premiere at the Arclight cinema on the 21st? Did you have any engagement during the premiere?
“Wasn’t there unfortunately – was in Denmark at that point shooting Kaspar Munk’s Danish film YOU & ME FOREVER.”
The new True Blood promo seemed as though it was showing Godric’s cruel side. If so – how was it acting that out?
“It was super fun. Like I said – because of his age and the circumstances around the particular scene I didn’t have to consider how Godric was when we shot the contemporary stuff.
So I went all out on evil and might have played a little big in some takes from being overly excited.”
How was it visiting Barcelona? Can you tell us a little bit of your experience there and the purpose of your visit?
Barcelona was fun. Beautiful city with a lot of charming atmosphere. I went there because of a *Danish cooking/traveling program for TV. I was asked if I wanted to be on it and because I love cooking and wanted to see Barcelona I said yes. Not a very artistic thing to do – but I had a lot of fun and met great people.
