Casting Call – added 01.13.2010
Surprising no one who has read the books, Debbie Pelt is being cast for this episode. She’s Alcide’s beloved ex and addicted to V. In her late 20s, she appears strung out and stubborn (oh, that’s an understatement Mr. or Ms. Casting Call Writer!). This is a recurring character.
Along with Debbie, we’ll see another woman in Alcide’s life: his sister Janice. She’s 32, fit and tough as nails. She fancies biker gear, horoscopes and psychics and is protective of her little brother.
Sounds like Jason is being challenged as Bon Temps’ golden boy with new character Kitch Maynard appearing on the scene. This 17-year-old is the new high school football star and hometown hero, which he enjoys rubbing in Jason’s face. Kitch is a recurring character. Look for him to get it on with his hot, 16-year-old girlfriend Tammy in his sports car. Kitch also has a fan in Donny, a member of the road crew alongside Jason who kisses up to the new town hero.
Poor Ann, a stripper, is exotic and striking, but “dead behind the eyes”. She’s glamoured and devoured by three vampires.
Jessica runs across someone from her past when Chip Welling, a clean-cut, all-American Christian boy recognizes her from Bible study. He’s relieved to see her alive…or so he assumes.
The Hotshot were community fills out a bit more with Felton Norris, the 20-something relative of Calvin’s. He’s a violent punk who strips Lafayette’s car and helps beat up Lafayette. This is a recurring character.
