TV News: ‘Prison Break’ Star Joins ‘True Blood’, Latest ‘Dexter’ Clips
Only a few episodes of season four are left, and for those of you who have trouble waiting a measly six days for a new episode of “Dexter”, beyond the break you’ll find two new clips from this Sunday’s episode. In other TV news, “Prison Break” star Marshall Allman will be joining the cast of HBO’s “True Blood” as a regular for the show’s third season. He’ll will play Tommy Mickens, the long-lost younger brother of Sam Merlotte (Sam Trammell) who works at a Tire Depot in Arkansas. He is the second new series regular cast on Alan Ball’s drama following the hire of Denis O’Hare as Russell Eddington, the Vampire King of Mississippi. Meanwhile, Shannon Lucio has landed a guest role on the vampire drama. Lucio will play Caroline Compton, the wife of Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) who lived during the Civil War. Amber Dawn Landrum played the character in a flashback on the show’s first season. Production on the third season of “Blood” begins this week in Los Angeles.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
