Best Death Scene

Winner: Godric (True Blood)

This was a very tight race between the sweet True Blood vampire, Jack Shephard on Lost and Sun and Jin’s underwater demise, but the vamp seeing the light squeaked out a narrow victory.

Meeting the Sun?

In the sun at last?

Some fans of True Blood happened to run across the show filming ONE DAY at a bar. They saw Alexander Skarsgård, Denis O’hare and Allan Hyde. Well they don’t exactly mention Allan Hyde but we all know who their “spoiler” mention is about…

“My friends and I heard of possible True Blood filming at Alex’s Bar in Long Beach. Ehh why not? It’s only currently my favorite television show (I can’t say it’s my absolute favorite, I just couldn’t do that to Friends.) We head on down to the bar thinking we weren’t not going to see much (I mean, they’re playing vampires. Why would they be filming outside?) and to our surprise there they are, outside, broad daylight, shooting a scene. And whose the first one I spot? Well, no surprise it’s Alexander Skarsgård, since he pretty much towers over everyone else. So, as he’s walking off set, he kindly takes a few pictures with us.”

You Feel Incredibly Badass, Until You Start To Lisp

Vampires are everywhere. “Twilight” movies ravaging the cinema and the steaming Southern series “True Blood” does the same on television.

Something that fits Allan Hyde perfectly.

With a central role in the second season of what has become the major new television hit, the Danish 20-year-old got his big international breakthrough.

But the acting life as an immortal bloodsucker is not easy.

For example, fangs offer unforeseen challenges.

“They take too much space in your mouth and makes it difficult to speak. You feel very amazing and bad ass when you put them in, but then you begin to lisp and lose intensity completely. It requires some training, ” Hyde told Dagbladet.

Norwegian turbo movie

As Dagbladet wrote recently, the young “True Blood” hero is in the Norwegian film “Exterior.”

The film was made in record time after the artist Marie Kristiansen and “Predator” director Patrik Syversen came together in Los Angeles earlier this year.

They were fascinated by how young hopefuls prefer to film in the city with dreams of becoming big stars. In just one week, they recorded the movie, which is about just that, and is coming to the theaters next year.

“It was really fun. I have great sense for small, spontaneous productions where people are because they want, and not because they make money on it.”

Hyde was aware of Kristiansen and Syversen by Gitte Witt, who plays one of two female lead roles.

“Gitte is one of my best friends, and I also play her friend. We would improvise a lot, so we could basically just act like we normally do when we’re together. In all, Scandinavians stick together in Hollywood, ” says Hyde.

“When I moved there and stayed for two months to record “True Blood,” I spoke exclusively with Norwegians and Swedes. That’s how it works.”

Making a comeback

In “True Blood” plays Hyde role of Godric, the nation’s most powerful vampire. The character died at the end of the second season, but still shows up in the third season, which is now being broadcast in the United States.

“It is exciting to work on this kind of huge productions. As an actor you can find out quickly that it requires something else from you when it’s all about effects rather than dialogue. It is difficult to discuss character development, you should only do what you’re told because it looks out of synch and will make sense in the finished product.

In the series Godric a repentant vampire, seeking reconciliation with humans. Hyde sees much of himself in the character.

“He has realized that his deeds as a vampire have not been good. Murders and rapes he has committed can not be excused. He has had a revelation. I have also realized this with relation to any pranks in my youth. They were obviously not as serious as this, but the feeling is the same.”
