Deborah Ann Woll: “I had no idea what I was getting myself into.”
In a new interview with the Toronto Sun, True Blood star Deborah Ann Woll talks about landing the role, learning the accent, and season 3:
“I just auditioned — it was before any of the episodes had aired, but I imagine they were filming some of the ninth episode (in the first season) at the time,” Woll said. “It was just a guest spot, so we come in right before we’re needed. I had no idea what I was getting myself into.
“I came in with a bunch of other girls, we sat in a waiting room and took our turn. I had to do the first scene in the tribunal, which is very traumatic and dramatic, and then the scene in the woods with Bill (Stephen Moyer) after just being turned, which is very comedic. So they wanted to see someone who could span both places.
“I remember rolling around on the ground and eating my tears, just sort of spreading non-existent dirt into my face. But I guess that’s what they were looking for.”
