True Blood Season 4: Who Is Mavis?

By  |  0 Comments
This is part 7 in our series of features about the new characters coming to True Blood in season 4. We’ll be taking a look at these new characters using both information from casting calls and from the novels on which the show is based. Beware, spoilers ahead!

Who Is Mavis?

This week we’re taking a look at another brand new character from the minds of the showrunners. Mavis is not in the books so we only know what the casting call says about her, the rest is all speculation.

The casting call describes Mavis as a sad-eyed girl dressed in a modest 1930s dress, African-American, age 20-30, and speaks with a Cajun accent. She will appear in flashbacks but it is not clear who’s flashbacks. This a recurring guest role and we can assume that she will be part of either Jesus or Lafayette’s history.

Also, nothing has been said of Tara and what she’s been doing while away from Bon Temps, however, it was revealed, recently, that when she does return, she will have some “power of her own”. Could Mavis be part of her history? One that she didn’t know existed? She and Lafayette are related, after all.

The role has not been cast at the time of this post.
