Stephen Moyer has landed the male lead opposite Anna Paquin in True Blood, Alan Ball's drama pilot for HBO, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Brook Kerr also has been cast in the project, which Ball wrote and is set to direct and executive produce. Based on the "Southern Vampire" book series by Charlaine Harris, "True Blood" takes place in a world in which vampires can buy Japanese-made synthetic blood. Their integration into a small Louisiana town causes quite a stir, and a love story ensues between Bull Comton (Moyer), a vampire, and Sookie Stackhouse (Paquin), an innocent waitress who can read people's minds. Kerr will play a beautiful, smart, articulate young woman who takes a job in the bar with Sookie.
I'm starting to get pumped for this. Six Feet Under was just the best TV series ever... so maybe this will come a close second. :)
