True Blood fans, it’s the casting news you’ve been waiting for…
Joe Manganiello, best known for playing barkeep Owen on One Tree Hill and Marshall’s law school chum Brad on How I Met Your Mother, has landed season 3’s most important new role: Sookie’s werewolf crush, Alcide Herveaux.
If Alan Ball follows Charlaine Harris’ books, Eric will summon Alcide — described in casting breakdowns as good-looking, rough-around-the-edges, articulate, heroic, and decent — to assist Sookie in her search for Bill.
Still to be cast: Alcide’s on-again, off-again psycho girlfriend Debbie Pelt.
Does that choice make you want to howl at the moon ?

OMG!that is how i pictured him!
Wooo hooo... he fits!!! Can't wait to see him in action.
Whoa! I think this might be a brilliant bit of casting. He is very hot, though I've never watched any of the shows he was in.
Someone want to tell us if he's a good actor?
PERFECT! Tall, dark, scruffy and handsome!
The eye candy just keeps pouring in for we Truebies. Great job of casting yet again. Now who will be cast as Debbie Pelt?
=^..^=
Perfect casting!!
Now I just hope Alan Ball doesn't take as much creative licence with Alcide as he has with the rest of the story. I love Alcide and don't want his character destroyed.
Now I can't wait to meet Quinn!!
I wish I knew more about this actor. This will be my first exposure to him, but I'm OK with that. He looks to me a bit more "pretty" than I imagined. I'm sure he'll scruff up very nicely regardless. They just better not shave his chest tho... or I'll start a boycott! LOL
I love you Eric Northman, but I might have to drool over Alcide a little!
