True Blood Season 3 : Grant Bowler ?


Grant Bowler cast for Season 3 -wonder who he will be ?


from Daily Telegraph UK

Hats off to Bowler

INSIDER had a flying visit last week from likable lad Grant Bowler, who rightly talked up his latest (and arguably greatest) Stateside gig, True Blood.Unable to contain his excitement about the role, Bowler tipped this columnist into the news.

"Mate, it's HBO and it's the King ... it's the chance to work for an Oscar-winner [series creator Allan Ball] and alongside an Oscar-winner [Anna Paquin]," he said.

It's a great break for the 41-year-old Bowler, who has struggled with bad luck in the US for the past four years, largely because of directorial whims and the writers' strike.

The new role - he wouldn't detail his character - has him becoming bi-coastal, given that he will maintain his commitments on Ugly Betty (seen here on 7Two).

"Ugly Betty rolls from deep, one-on-one connected, touching realism to absolute farce to physical comedy and clowning and everything in between - I love it," Bowler enthused.

Bowler's first episode on Ugly Betty screens next Tuesday at 7.30pm on 7Two.

I believe him to be Alcide or related
to Sam.

My first thought was Franklin Mott.

He looks like I've imagined Calvin Norris to look like. He's the right age for the Calvin character, too.

Selle Castaigneda said...

I know alot of folks have said he's Franklin Mott, but.....in the casting call, Franklin Mott is described as tall, dark and handsome. This actor is not dark.

JWhitney you know i started to say
that at first but changed my mind
was not sure they would put Calvin
in this season but you could be
right because they brought Lorena in
early.
