Anna Paquin is taking her first role in a TV series as the star of Alan Ball's HBO drama pilot True Blood. Ball, creator of HBO's Six Feet Under, is set to direct and executive produce the new show, which has also cast Ryan Kwanten and Sam Trammell. The story, based on Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire book series, is about vampires who integrate into a small Louisiana town and a love story between a vampire and Sookie Stackhouse (Paquin), a waitress who can read people's minds.
Info from EW.com
It's more of a murder mystery than a love story. I've read at least 4 of the Southern Vampire Series novels and they're all pretty damn awesome. Although looking at Amazon, I'm pretty far behind still. Anywho, novels reccomended - I'm also way excited for the show. Anna will make a great Sookie Stackhouse.
