Part 3 of Season 5 Spoilers, the Castings.

Barnabas is looking for something too, maybe spoilers? This is casting news for S5, I will update as more info comes out. 
Casting Calls and Episode Info
From TrueBlood.net, this is from June.
The big news comes in the form of Patrick Devins, a tough, ruggedly handsome man in his mid-30s to mid-40s. He’s an old military buddy of Terry’s; in fact, Terry saved his life twice. Patrick will be a series regular in season 5 (that’s right, they’re already casting characters for season 5), appearing in 7 out of 13 episodes. Not sure if that means season 5 will have 13 episodes, or if they’re counting 4.12 in that number. (we now know this is Scott Foley)
 Posted this back in August it's a casting call for S5, from Rhoswen7
TRUE BLOOD (New Series Regular)
Start Date: Mid-November
Location: L.A.
[NEW FEMALE VAMPIRE] 19 to 30s. A dangerous female seductress. Must be smoking hot! Nudity required
Then we got a bit more info on this last call
Here are 2 roles being cast for season 5. Looks like they're getting into some vampire history and Eric's past: 
TRUE BLOOD 
Start Date: Late November / Late December 
Location: L.A. 
[SALOME] 20 to 40. THE Salome from the Bible. Dark haired with dark features, exotic looking, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and /or African. An ancient vampire who is a world class seductress and fiercely intelligent. She also has quite a lot of madness in her. She is the most powerful person in every way yet capable of hiding this power when it serves her purposes. Series Regular. Possible nudity. 
[NORA] 25 to 35. Beautiful, any race, centuries old. A double agent working within the Vampire Authority. Eric's vampire "sister" - a progeny of Godric. Intelligent, intimidating, cool under pressure and a very good liar. She loves Eric deeply, but has
dedicated her life to a higher purpose. Series Regular. Possible nudity.
This updated the CC above-
 [SALOME] may be the same vampire as the one from this August casting notice:
TRUE BLOOD (New Series Regular)
Start Date: Mid-November
Location: L.A.
[NEW FEMALE VAMPIRE] 19 to 30s. A dangerous female seductress. Must be smoking hot! Nudity required.
 It's been implied that Eric has connections in the Vampire Authority (He'd said so to Nan). I guess now we know who that is.
Godric was old enough to have made several progeny, so Eric having a sister doesn't bother me. Besides, it's another excuse to have more Godric scenes (which I know will irritate some people who think that once someone's dead they should stay dead), and I'm a Godric fan, so the possibility of him appearing again makes me happy.
From Ausiello's TVLine- Meet Eric's Vampire Sister. British actress Lucy Griffiths is coming to America in a big way, she’ll portray Nora.
From EW
Meet Nora, a beautiful and intelligent double agent within the Vampire Authority who’s the progeny of Eric’s maker Godric. She will be played by Lucy Griffiths, a British actress who starred in the BBC’s Robin Hoodas Maid Marian.
Creator Alan Ball has lots of mayhem in store for Season 5. EW also learned that Denis O’Hare will reprise his role of Russell Edgington, the vampire King of Mississippi. Remember, Russell wasn’t exactly killed off at the end of season 3 — he was just buried alive under silver.

TVLine has info on a new cast member-
True Blood is introducing the woman who gave life to late werewolf packmaster Marcus, and they found one tough mother to play her. My Name is Earl character actress Dale Dickey — who knows a thing or two about channeling formidable, backwoods matriarchs (see: her acclaimed, award-winning performance in last year’sWinter’s Bone) — is joining the HBO hit as Annie, Marcus’ werewolf mother. Powerful and respected within the pack due to her late son’s position, Annie is determined to perform a particular ritual. Might said ritual involve making Alcide pay for whacking her demon spawn? Her status is reccurring.
 
Ausiello has some casting news ! Archives have interviews and the 2 Hollywood diaries Valentina did for Italian news.
Italian actress Valentina Cervi is joining True Blood‘s upcoming fifth season as a series regular — and her character sounds like the love child of Russell and Maryann. The 35-year-old beauty will play Salome, an ancient vampire who is a world class seductress and fiercely intelligent. She also has quite a lot of madness in her. She is the most powerful person in every way yet capable of hiding this power when it serves her purposes.
Cervi recently appeared opposite Rufus Sewell in the BBC miniseries Zen.IMDB
New casting spoiler, Carolyn Hennessy, she tweeted she has been cast as a vampire for S5. She plays Sonny's lawyer Diane on GH, she used to be on Cougartown and is in a ton of commercials and guestspots. 
True Blood Wiki has the premiere episode, "Turn, Turn, Turn", synopsis up, it says it's official.
As the dust settles in Bon TempsSam and Luna’s plans for a fresh start are interrupted by a new arrival, hell-bent on revenge. Meanwhile: Sookie’s vow for a life without vampires is put to the test; Lafayette struggles with his latest acquisition; Patrick calls in a favor from Terry, that will put his relationship with Arlene under pressure; Jessica takes a backseat, while Jason caters for anunwelcome house guestPam tries to make amends, and Bill and Eric plan their escape from the forces now pursuing them, but are soon drawn into a plot that will shatter the very foundations of the vampire hierarchy, and bring them face to face with their deadliest enemy.
Chris Meloni on True Blood, the heat is on (maybe)! From Ausiello-
TVLine has learned exclusively that the former Law & Order: SVU front man is circling what my sources are calling a “major role” in the show’s upcoming fifth season. If a deal comes to pass, this would be a major casting coup for True Blood. It would also mark a high-profile return to the small screen for Meloni following his sudden departure from SVU last spring.

Some articles on 2 noobs to TB's Cast from Deadline-
EXCLUSIVE: Kelly Overton (The Ring Two) and Louis Herthum (The Last Exorsism) have landed major recurring roles on the HBO vampire drama True Blood. Overton has been booked for 6 episodes and Herthum has been tapped for 5. I hear that the deals for both include series regular options for next season. Overton, repped by Innovative Artists, will play a dirty, beautiful werewolf named Rikki who demands to know what’s become of the pack leader. Herthum, repped by Main Title and Progressive Artists, will play a particularly large Marine-type werewolf who refuses to bow down before the new pack leader. He is also recurring on A&E’s Longmire.
From Movieweb-The first casting announcement has arrived revealing two of these fresh faces. First up, Kelly Overton is set to play a "dirty, beautiful" werewolf named Rikki, who is desperate to discover what became of her pack's leader. Next, we have Louis Herthum, who joins the cast as a "large, Marine-type" werewolf who refuses to bow down to his new pack leader. Kelly Overton is set to appear in six Season 5 episodes, while Louis Herthum is scheduled for five. Both actors have series regular options for Season Six.

He’s a fairy. We couldn't help but pop out our fangs back in 2011 when we heard the news that Lost’s Neil Hopkins would play Claude — who, in the books, is a fairy from Louisiana who’s possibly related to Sookie’s fairy godmother, Claudine. We were dissapointed when Neill was only featured briefly in True Blood’s season 4 premiere, and new information has come to light which implies that they might be re-casting his role. 
Meet the new Claude. Sure, his name isn’t exactly the coolest. 
But this True Bloodcharacter is described as a smooth charmer who might shake things up in season 5.Newcomer Giles Matthey has landed the multi-episode role of a hot and mysterious British fairy. One report has said that Claude will catch Jessica’s interest and attention in the upcoming season, but that’s not confirmed. Claude was previously played (briefly) by Neil Hopkins (Lost) on the show.In the books, Claude is described as “the nephew of Sookie’s half-human/half-fairy grandfather, Fintan, and cousin to Sookie’s father … He makes an impact on all women and is described as being absolutely breathtaking … He started out as a stripper at Hooligans, a club in Monroe, which he later becomes owner of, and has branched out to print and runway modeling … Women usually say ‘wow’ when they see him, but his interest is men.” From EW. 


lindapurl Linda Purl  
Great news! I'm joining the cast of "True Blood" for its fifth season playing Barbara Pelt (Debbie's mother). Shooting starts next week!

The Vault has a casting scoop, Linda Purl is cast as Barbara Pelt! Seems like the regulars don't dare speak but the newbs are so happy they spill, ha. From her twitter, she has a tweet saying she's recurring this season.
She also has it on her Facebook page I see.
Dont know how I missed this from mid-February but Brianna Brown posted this on her twitter-
"Excited to be shooting True Blood this week!" She's also from General Hospital, she played crazy Dr Lisa, she also is one of the Amy Adams looking actresses I get confused about.
Rhoswen7 updated the S5E6 episode casting call-
Yikes, has it really been 2 weeks since my last spoiler update?
Well, the drought is over (at least for a little while). Here's another casting notice for episode #506, although it's not anything too exciting, in my opinion:
TRUE BLOOD, Episode #506 (Additional Roles)
Director: Dan Attias
Writer: Alan Ball
Start Date Approx. 2/29
Location: L.A.
[JOE BOB] CAUCASIAN, EARLY 30s, White trash. An anti-vampire terrorist wearing an Obama mask to hide his identity, he shoots one vampire with a hunting rifle and takes his victim prisoner. Recurring.
[FEMALE NURSE] 40s. This polite but authoritative female nurse attempts (but fails) to stop a conversation between two upset patients. Co-star.

[MALE NURSE] This male nurse politely attempts to restrain an agitated patient on a gurney. Co-star.
[UNSAVORY VAMPIRE] Male, 30s to early 40s. An unsavory male vampire feeding in the alley behind Fangtasia, he's chowing down on a victim whose heart is slowing to the point of near-death. Co-star. 
 

UPDATE 3/13- I guess this is the nurse for E6-

Rhoswen7 - Here's a casting notice for episode #507. There's gonna be a wedding...
TRUE BLOOD, Episode #507
Director: Michael Ruscio
Writer: Brian Buckner
Location: L.A.
Start Date: Approx. 3/16/2012
[BLACK OPS VAMP] Late 20s to early 30s, a Black Ops Vampire, he/she is involved in a mission to capture a prisoner. CO-STAR. 
[TYRESE] A beer-drinking, pizza-loving African-American man in his late 20s, Tyrese is another member of the trashy, low-rent anti-vampire hate group. POSSIBLE RECURRING. 
REVEREND SKINNER] Male, 40s to 50s. This minister is seen on video, performing a marriage ceremony. Co-STAR. 

[SWEETIE] (DesArts, Our Merlotte cook/shifterkiller/ex stripper from "Dead as a Doornail"?) Female, Caucasian. About 30, she is a large woman who's having a noontime romance with an older married man. RECURRING.
[BRIDE-TO-BE] Female, 20s, Caucasian. A bride-to-be at a big Southern wedding, she's attending a karaoke party after the rehearsal dinner, and sings "You Light Up My Life" to her groom, until she's interrupted. CO-STAR.
[GROOM'S MOTHER] Caucasian, mid to late 40s. The mother of the groom, she also attends the karaoke party after the wedding rehearsal, and recognizes an uninvited guest. CO-STAR.
[SECURITY GUARD] This security guard in charge of protection announces an unexpected visitor, and later snaps into almost-action, awaiting orders. CO-STAR.
Added- According to casting notices, the role of the bride-to-be is being cast, so the bride isn't any of the current female characters. Also, the mother of the groom is being cast (mid to late 40s), so we know the groom isn't Sam, any of the vampires, Hoyt, Andy (he's too old to have a mother in her 40s), or Jason. The wedding looks like it will be for guest characters.

Any of my #Trueblood fans out there? I just booked a role on the show and im really excited!!IMDB

Speculation of the scene from Skarsgardfans, based on the call sheet-
According to the production call sheet, the filming at the market had Jason Stackhouse (Ryan Kwanten)  running into Miss Steeler (played by Melissa Page Hamilton). Their meeting led them to go to Miss Steeler’s home to “rekindle” a romance perhaps. The images below are from the filming today 1/24/12. Waiting sucks but the little bits of news help make the wait less painful! More filming and location photos at the link.

Sleuth is back! Our friend at Skarsgardfans has some pics at the link from filming and they are of chestelicious himself-
TB was filming in nearby (ok not that close but close enough for me to schlep over there...LOL) got some pix for stuff for 5.03. Oh and yes a shirtless Ryan ! Did not know who it was at first since I was far but when I saw the person was shirtless I just knew it had to be Ryan!!
