True Blood Season 3 Episode 5 is entitled, “Trouble” and behind this door are some casting call spoilers for it. Beware – there are some good ones in here.
[ULFRICK]In his 40s to 50s.. warm, a battle-scarred Swedish Viking king, he is Eric’s (Alex Skarsgård) father, seen in a flashback to 900 A.D. Though they have a good relationship, there is some tension between father and son, because Ulfrick wants Eric to learn responsibility and behave in a manner befitting royalty…GUEST STAR
[COLONEL JOHN FLOOD] In his 50s to 60s.. self-assured, dressed like a golfer with a military haircut, he is a Wolf Pack Leader. He doesn’t respond the way Sookie and Alcide expect to recent events…GUEST STAR
[ASTRID] In her 30s, warm, a Swedish Viking queen with a new baby, she is Eric’s (Alex Sarsgård) mother, seen in a flashback to 900 A.D…GUEST STAR
[SUMMER] In her early 20s, super positive, she’s a nice girl from Hoyt’s church who’s attracted to Hoyt in a chaste way…2 lines, 1 scene







Since the season 1 blu-ray said that Eric left home and joined the rogue band of warriors as a teenager, I’ll assume they’ll have someone playing Eric when dealing with daddy or is it a visit back home after he’s already joined his band.
Oh wait, if his mum is in her 30′s, maybe the flashback is when Eric’s in his teens.
They should just have Alex’s real dad, Stellan, play his dad on TB. Seems logical and appropriate.
Alex made a statement way back when about a surprise guest playing his dad or something along this line. Everyone was guessing he was talking about Stellan.
I remember that Aem – but if that was true, why put out a casting call? To throw us off?
Probably. Who knows. Whatever. I’m so tired of these spoilers and casting calls, yet I can’t resist them.
I can’t believe Eric is now coming from royalty. What’s next? He’s going to become immune to silver? Be able to eat veggies? Make his own heart beat on demand?
LOL! Maybe he’s royalty now to make up for all the hollering about Bill killing Longshadow and the hairdoo-gate controversy.
WTF- what happen AB, you forgot everything you did in Season 1…
Cool, Viking flashbacks. Colonel Flood- wasn’t he from Book 5?
I said it before and I’ll saiy it again… I won’t read any of this spoilers, I didn’t read this one and I swear to god I won’t read any in the future and the only reason I’m here is to advice you not to do it, because this is the site I visit the most and then I’ll know that you know what I don’t want to know (try to read it very slowly, it makes sence at some point)… and it’s just too much. We still have 5 months of waiting and these spoilers only make it all worse!!!
P.S.: still no date on season 3?
BTW… does any of this spoiler has anything to do with the books? I just want to know that… I’m telling you I haven’t read them!!!
LOL Melissa! I will tell you that there is one character from the books that is being cast. Then there’s some diversion from books as well with other casting.
We promise not to put the spoilers in the main window.
Thank you Liv, I know the books by heart… but I dont’ want to see the spoilers because I know (and certainly hope) Alan Ball will get his way with them anyway and will change a few things here and there -hopefully about a certain Viking and some ridiculous blood bond I don’t want to talk about- to make it all better. But I’m suffering from a serious True Blood whidrawls… but I just to be surprised!!!!
