True Blood Season 7 is getting ready to begin this weekend but the cast are opening up about the end. Recently BIll Compton (Stephen Moyer) and Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin) both opened up about filming the final episode of the hit HBO series. Meanwhile, Alcide (Joe Magliano) is offering up a few spoilers about the bloody and deadly Season 7 premiere.

Stephen Moyer recently spoke with Variety about the emotional final table read:

“It was really beautiful actually,We were all expecting certain things out of it and then once you’re in there. … People turned up who we hadn’t seen for ages; Alan [Ball] was there. That stuff’s really deep--We’re sitting in the same room that we’ve been reading in for seven years, and it was really great.”

Moyer’s real-life wife Anna Paquin went on to add:

“We’re still working 15 hours a day, so there’s not been a lot of reflection yet --I’m just more worried about whether or not I’ll know my lines tomorrow.”

Alcide actor Joe Manganiello managed to bring up back to the present when he previewed the new episode:

“He’s [Alcide] in love with that girl and he has been for a long time. [He's] the guy who never intentionally hurt her, didn’t have a duplicitous nature--he’s a real man, so I was happy to see that happen, especially after the coitus interruptus of the barfing-on-the-shoes incident...The town is under attack, everyone has kind of retreated into Bon Temps and is hunkered down trying to defend themselves against these rabid, Hep-V vampires, so [Alcide] is now a part of the town. There will be some sexiness going on at Gran’s house, and lots of blood and death and craziness --nobody stays happy for too long in Bon Temps.”

Tune into the first episode of the final season this Sunday at 8:00 on HBO.
