I cant stand this interviewer, she tried to be on The View and was so obnoxious.




Livejournal has a post with the cast photos from many different sites all in one place, thanks Giovanna. Askars looks regal.

Re: True Blood: Eric Northman, Viking Vampire, Alex Skarsgard Viking Actor


You can buy them now at the HBO Store, I wonder why they didnt make them action figures instead of busts?

MTV's Hollywood Crush spoke with ASkars at the Emmy's.

Alexander Skarsgard Says He Handles 'A Big Gun' In 'Battleship'
by Terri Schwartz
Oh, Alexander Skarsgård, how you made us swoon when you walked out at the Emmy's and presented using your Eric Northman accent, and how you then proceeded to confuse the heck out of us when you talked with a southern twang at the HBO Emmy's after party. You're a method actor, we understand, but you just finished wrapping a Swedish film, for goodness sake! Shouldn't you be talking with a bit of a Swedish lilt?

Unless, that is, you were just getting in character for "Battleship," which you flew out to start filming today. We don't know for sure if Alexander will be playing a southern commander, but we wouldn't put it past the film pitting the US Navy against invading aliens. Alexander was willing to shed some light on the upcoming film when we spoke to him on the red carpet.

"It's quite different from the board game obviously. But Pete [Berg] is a great guy, the director, and a very interesting filmmaker, so I'm just excited to start it," he said.

We would be excited to start filming too if our costars included the lovely and talented Brooklyn Decker, Rihanna and Taylor Kitsch. Though we didn't find out if he was practicing that down south accent for the film, Alexander did tell us, "I play a commander of one of the destroyers in the US Navy, so um, that's a big gun."

As to whether or not we'd be seeing him in 3-D, Alexander was not as forthcoming, only saying, "Uhh, no, I don't think so."

I cant believe they call him a drunk, they are obv not European, hang out with a Portugueso and they'd know better.

Alexander Skargard is a Bit of a Drunk
Alexander Skarsgard is a drunk. Alexander opened up about one of his favorite hobbies recently — getting plastered. The Swedish True Blood actor enjoys dousing himself in the sweet nectar and passing out in odd places. In fact, he says it’s one of his favorite past times.

He told a recent entertainment reporter:
“I have a tendency to drink like a Viking. The good thing about my drunkenness is I don’t remember it. I’ve woken up in a few weird places when I was young, like in the woods.”

Alexander is a bit of a rogue isn’t he? The last thing he admitted in the press was that he liked to go completely naked when filming sex scenes.

“If we’re naked in the scene, then I’m naked. I’ve always been that way.”

Skars is sounding more and more like a dream man, isn’t he?

Re: True Blood: Eric Northman, Viking Vampire, Alex Skarsgard Viking Actor

He doesnt say he never kissed a guy only not on a show or movie.

'True Blood' star Alexander Skarsgard talks this season's guy-on-guy love scene: 'I’d never kissed a guy before'
by Tim Stack


Alexander Skarsgard’s Eric has had a wild third season of True Blood to say the least. There’s been rapid-fire sex scenes, Viking flashbacks, Sookie Stackhouse sex dreams, and then of course, his ultimately bloody tryst with fellow vamp Talbot (Theo Alexander). Skarsgard tells EW that he and Alexander really wanted the scene to be powerful for viewers. “I’d never kissed a guy before on a show or in a movie, and that was Theo’s first time as well, and we talked about it,” says Skarsgard. “It goes from being this romantic, beautiful scene, and they’re getting rough with each other and getting it on — and [then] the turn where Eric just slaughters him. It’s such a rich scene. I basically said, ‘We’ve got to sell it in the beginning. It’s got to be passionate and beautiful because then the payoff is going to be so much more rewarding.’”

Yes Kristin, he was trying to avoid you, do you really have to keep saying it?

OMG... he really was practicing a Southern accent at the HBO party! I could hear it loud and clear. Interesting! (And yeah, Kristin was as dippy as always. No wonder he was trying to duck out on that one.)
