Part 3 of Season 5 Spoilers, Castings Continued

From Rhoswen7- Oh yeah, and Stephen Moyer's the director: 
TRUE BLOOD, Episode #508, "Somebody That I Used to Know" 
Director: Stephen Moyer Writer: Mark Hudis Location: L.A. Start Date: approx. 4/2/12 
[REGGIE] Male, mid 20s to early 30s. Caucasian. A good looking redneck, a member of a trashy, low-rent anti-vampire hate group. Co-star 
[SARAH COMPTON-HARRIS] Female Caucasian 70s - 80s. Seen in a flashback to 1931, the elderly, very frail Sarah has been ravaged by cancer and is close to death. One day guest star.
Speculation from Trueblood.net-  "Not only is Steve directing this episode, but it appears we’re getting a look at Bill’s history: the show is casting Sarah Compton-Harris, an elderly woman seen in flashback to 1931. She’s in her 70s-80s, and ravaged by cancer. Does Bill find his daughter at death’s door and offer her an alternative?" While I don't think he would offer her a vamp life he might be there to offer comfort or just to watch from the sidelines, remember Bill was forced to turn Jessica, it's not his style.
[RYDER] This large guy is a wolf who addresses the Shreveport pack as they face a change in leadership. Guest star 
[LADY PACKMEMBER] This female member of the wolf pack makes a wry suggestion at a meeting. Co-star 
[SEAN] College age, lean and tall like a long-distance runner, Sean is a University track star who's put in the terrifying position of having to out-run a wolf pack. Co-star 
[FEMALE] 20s Caucasian, she begs for her life as she is fed on by a vampire. Co-star 
[SAM] Double to Sam Trammell. 5'9 1/2" - 5'10" 155 - 160 lbs. 38 chest. Actor must look just like Sam Trammell.  
Yeah fans were just clammoring for more fairies, no?
UPDATE-Rhoswen7's casting info-
Here's a revised casting notice that changes the age of a character:TRUE BLOOD, Episode #508, "Somebody That I Used to Know" (Revised Role of Sarah)
Start Date: approx. 4/2/12
[SARAH COMPTON-HARRIS] Female Caucasian 40-45. Seen in a flashback to 1931, in a scene with Bill (Stephen Moyer). One day guest star That's an interesting change. She can't be Bill's daughter unless he made her a vampire around 1900. If she'shuman and 40-45 in 1931, then she's got to be his granddaughter or a neice. This revised casting notice doesn't mention anything about her being sick or near death.

TRUE BLOOD, Episode #508, "Somebody That I Used to Know"

At the time, Jackson was said to be a "powerful, inspiring and heroic" guy, but in the present, he's given up on life.Jackson, as a way to repay his father's debt to Eric, also stands as the reason that Alcide first agreed to help Sookiesearch for Bill during Season 3.He's scheduled to make his debut in Episode 9, slated to air Aug. 5 and titled "Everybody Wants to Rule the World." In addition to appearing in True Blood, Patrick will next be seen in ABC's upcoming freshman drama Last Resort, in which he plays the master chief of a NATO sub in the series from Shawn Ryan (The Shield, Terriers).

Keram Malicki-Sánchez cast as the vamp who pushes Pam around and sits in Eric throne/chair in the Comic Con trailer. IMDB

 Gone, Gone, Gone E 9, Everybody Wants to Rule the World E 10 are where Elijah shows up. Thanks to Mel and Barb for putting the casting info together to get the actor right on Bookies. 

In the last 4 episodes, Save Yourself, Song of the Dead Faerie, Gone, Gone, Gone, In the Beginning,  we have an Authority Guard Captain, also called Black Ops Vamp- wtf does that mean?  The actress is Charlotta Mohlin, IMDB

Jonesiano HD (that's his name) is listed in the last 2 episodes as Vampire Inmate, another thing that I am wondering about, who is in vamp prison with him from the cast or is he food for someone there?

Vampire Inmate-– Save Yourself, – Song of the Dead Faerie
