[TV] New “True Blood” Casting Proves Writers Have Learned Nothing
Welp, this final season of HBO’s “True Blood” is for the dogs. Actually, I wouldn’t even feed it to my dog…
“True Blood” was one of my favorite new shows, at least until they stopped making it for me and attempted to gain the female demographic. Even my wife admits that she started to peak at the screen a bit more when the shirts started flying off…
Anyways, the show is for females only, and I hate that (only because it originally wasn’t). The latest casting is hilarious, too, proving they’ve learned nothing. Thankfully, the show dies before 2015.
“90210’s” Riley Smith has the honor of playing Keith, a sexy, rock ‘n’ roll vampire with a romantic side. Sigh. He’s drummer in James’ (Nathan Parson) band, and becomes smitten with Arlene (Carrie Preston) on first sight.
Nothing says hardcore vampire horror like a “smitten” rock ‘n’ roller. VOMIT.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
