TV: Pam, Lafayette and Tera Standoff in ‘True Blood’ Clip
Another “waiting sucks” clip has been posted on HBO’s official website for their vampire drama “True Blood”, which premieres June 26. Previously you’ve seen a tied up Ryan Kwanten as Jason Stackhous, a shirtless Eric (Alexander Skarsgard), and Sam Trammell with the first appearance of Janina Gavankar as Luna. This morning we’ve got a standoff between Pam, Lafayette and Tera.
Daniel Buran, Dane DeHaan, Rebecca Wisocky, Janina Gavankar (“The Gates”), Alexandra Breckenridge (“Dirt,” “Life Unexpected”), Vedette Lim (“As the World Turns”), Christina Moore, Neil Hopkins (“Lost”), and Chris Butler (“The Good Wife”) all join the old cast. Set in the fictional town of Bon Temps, Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), a waitress, discovers a new world of creatures when she falls in love with Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer), a vampire.
“As Eric’s offspring and primary aide, Pam knows how to advance her maker’s agendas (while pulling off one hell of a skirt/sweater combo). Beneath this vampire’s polished demeanor, however, lies the lethal instinct that has made her an asset to someone as ruthless as Eric.”

Post Malone Teams With Platinum Dunes & Vault Comics to Create ‘Fury Road’ Meets ‘Evil Dead’ Movie
Here’s an interesting one for you today. “Post Malone, Michael Bay and Brad Fuller’s Platinum Dunes, and Vault Comics have partnered to create an all-new IP universe based on an original story by the 8x diamond recording artist,” Bloody Disgusting has learned this afternoon.
What exactly does this mean? Well, the plan is for Vault Comics to launch this original genre story as a graphic novel in 2025, with Platinum Dunes developing the film adaptation.
The comic book/movie doesn’t yet have a title, but here’s what we know so far…
The official press release details today, “Blending elements of road thrillers like Mad Max: Fury Road, and demonic horror like Evil Dead, the story is set in medieval Europe, where the only thing standing in the way of the horde of demons infesting the continent is a mysterious armored 18-wheeler seemingly sent back from the heavens.”
“I’m so pumped to share this badass story with the world, and I couldn’t ask for better partners than Michael Bay and Vault to help bring this story to life,” Post Malone said in a statement.
“This is the kind of project you dream about,” said Vault CEO Damian Wassel. “We get to work with an exceptional artist at the top of his game to build a completely original story from the ground up. We have an iconic director helping to guide the creative development. We’re going to bring the world a mind-blowing graphic novel, and that’s just the beginning.”
“I love working with talented people, and Post Malone is incredibly gifted,” says Bay. “I am excited to work with him on such an intriguing idea, and when you add Vault to the mix, it raises the bar to another level. This new IP is just what the graphic world needs right now.”
