TV: More Puns in Latest ‘True Blood’ Posters
HBO has been running rampant promoting the forthcoming fourth season of “True Blood” that premieres on June 26 at 9pm. While they’ve released a dozen “waiting sucks” poster and the official trailer, inside you’ll find a trio of official character one sheets that ask you to “show your true colors” while displaying a whole lot of “touching.” Always with the puns…
“Sookie journeys away from Bon Temps; Eric and Bill try to win back the human public; Jason learns that no good deed goes unpunished; Tara finds refuge in close quarters; Sam bonds with his own; Hoyt and Jessica debate the dinner menu; Jesus urges Lafayette to join a coven; Terry tries to alleviate Arleneʼs fears about the baby.”
Alan Ball’s “True Blood” stars Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, Alexander Skarsgard, Kevin Alejandro, Nelsan Ellis, Jim Parrack, Deborah Ann Woll, Sam Trammell, Kristin Bauer van Straten, Rutina Wesley, Carrie Preston, Joe Manganiello, and Ryan Kwanten. The Season 4 newcomers include Daniel Buran, Dane DeHaan, Rebecca Wisocky, Janina Gavankar, Alexandra Breckenridge, Vedette Lim, Christina Moore, Neil Hopkins, and Chris Butler.
Chris Columbus (Gremlins – writer, Home Alone – director) is headed back into the director’s chair for Thursday Murder Club, Amblin’s upcoming feature film adaptation of the same-titled novel written by Richard Osman. Variety first reported the news this morning.
It’s not a horror movie, mind you, but rather a star-studded murder-mystery. Think Rian Johnson’s Knives Out… only this particular murder-mystery is set in a retirement community!
Variety details, “The book, released in 2020, tells the story of four septuagenarian friends who live in a retirement community and solve cold cases for fun. When a shady property developer is found dead, the four find themselves in the middle of their first live crime.”
Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley are “being eyed” to lead the cast!
Richard Osman’s 2020 novel was such a hit that it launched a franchise. Follow-up The Man Who Died Twice followed in 2021, with The Bullet That Missed coming along in 2022. And then there was The Last Devil to Die in 2023, with a fifth book in the series expected in 2025.
