SPOILERS: More True Blood Season 5 Scoop from Denis O’Hare & Rutina Wesley

E! Online finally delivers with at least a little bit of True Blood scoop from the season 5 red carpet premiere.

Kate A.: True Blood scoop! Who brought Russell back?
Excellent question! Let’s ask him, shall we? “It’s somebody who nobody knows yet,” Denis O’Hare tells us. “It’s a surprising character. And I think you get a hint in episode two, and then a big hint in episode five.” One thing we do know for sure: Russell did not grow softer while buried in the cement…except for one thing. “He’s still vicious, he’s still dangerous, he’s still highly charming, but they added all this stuff to him. We get to see him fall in love!” Awww! Ain’t nothing sweeter than a former vampire king falling in love, right?

Jeanette in Lansing, Mich.: So is Tara dead or what? #TrueBlood
“[I’m] definitely coming back, just can’t tell you quite how,” Rutina Wesley reveals to us. “The interesting thing, for me, is the fans watching Tara recover. She kind of becomes a new woman. The journey she’s about to embark on is out of control.” Out of control in a sense that she’s now a ghost yelling at Sookie from beyond the grave? June 10…get here already!
