True Blood is adding another character to the mix this season. Something tells me he’s going to give Bill & Eric some trouble…
Deadline is reporting that Peter Mensah has signed on for the fifth season of “True Blood” as Kibwe, a Chancellor for the Authority. The story notes that Kibwe hails from Africa and that he is working towards “mainstreaming” the Authority.
Mensah is currently best known as Oenomaus on “Spartacus: Vengeance” and the preceding season and prequel on Starz, Mensah has also appeared in several TV series, including “Star Trek: Enterprise,” “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles,” “The Pretender,” “Witchblade,” “Relic Hunter” and “Highlander: The Raven.” Mensah has also appeared in the films “300,” “Hidalgo,” “Avatar” and “Tears of The Sun.”
Wow, TB isn’t playing around with the casting this season. The Authority is gonna be seriously kick-ass. I don’t have Starz, so I don’t watch Spartacus, but I’ve seen this actor in other projects. He is intense. Waiting sucks!
This is fantastic news, cannot wait to see him. Rina is wondering Spartacus. Such a great actor.
So excited for this season!! He looks like a great addition to the TB family.
Wow this is great. I’m a big fan of Spartacus and Peter is a fantastic actor looking forward to seeing him. TB is certainly getting some heat this season can’t wait. Is is June yet?
WOW, he looks intense. Getting scared for Bill and Eric now…..*bites nails*
