TV: New ‘True Bood’ Teaser Poster Takes New Aproach
Continuing their advertising assault, HBO released a new one sheet for the forthcoming third season of “True Blood” that features the many forms of Sam Merlotte (played by Sam Trammell). Premiering on June 13, new blood Lauren Bowles, Joe Manganiello, Brit Morgan, Denis O’Hare, Kevin Alejandro, Cooper Huckabee, Alfre Woodard, J. Smith-Cameron, Theo Alexander, Grant Bowler, and Lindsay Pulsipher join stars Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, Sam Trammell, Ryan Kwanten, and Rutina Wesley. The series began when Sookie Stackhouse (Paquin), a barmaid living in Louisiana who can read people’s minds, and how her life is turned upside down when the Vampire Bill (Moyer), walks into her place of employment two years after vampires ‘came out of the coffin’ on national television.
In addition to sequel The Housemaid’s Secret, Paul Feig (Ghostbusters, The Housemaid) will also be directing a new horror movie titled Detention for Blumhouse Atomic Monster.
Deadline reports this week that Feig will direct Detention for Blumhouse Atomic Monster and Platinum Dunes, with the film’s spec screenplay written by Daniel Gold.
At this time, unfortunately, all plot details are completely under wraps.
Deadline notes, however, “While the plot is being kept under wraps, sources say the film will be a horror thriller, which excited Feig, who, after successfully directing global hit The Housemaid this past Christmas, wanted to try something even darker.”
The outlet adds, “No studio is attached, but sources say Universal likely will get a first crack at it given its relationship with Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse Atomic Monster.”
Producers on Detention include Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller, Cameron Fuller, Paul Feig and Laura Fischer. Steven Schneider will executive produce the horror film.
