Thanks for starting!! He's definitely a good vampire

ShadowhunterღReader · 10-13-2013, 06:39 PM

your welcome and yes he is

I feel in love with the moment we first saw him and then his line about how he's a vampire not a rapist I'm like aww

I loved that first scene of his in that room with Jessica

He's definitely a good vampire

Hope we find out more about him next season.

Ok the recasting is decent

but it's not James ya know?

bring me home · 06-24-2014, 08:32 AM

He's interesting...jury is still out on him though

deathly_smirk · 06-25-2014, 01:35 PM

Well that is a good thing. A lot of fans tend to go savage immediately on an actor who's replacing another

Haven't seen the first epi yet and I don't want too I loved Luke as James

So sad he couldn't do both Fifty Shades and True Blood, since this is the last season! I loved him and Jessica!

Awww

It's going to be interesting to see where they go with the James storyline.

I'm interested to see where they go with James - Got a feeling it'll be him and Lafeyette

I liked him and Jessica their chemistry was really organic

I like the chemistry he has with Lafayette a little better. Him and Jessica seemed to come out of no where, but I understand why people like that pairing. It'll be interesting to see this triangle.

LUKE GRIMES LEFT 'TRUE BLOOD' BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT TO PLAY GAY

Gay.net - Luke Grimes Left 'True Blood' Because He Didn't Want to Play Gay

Quote:

In its seven season run, True Blood has consistently been one of the most visible shows on television for highlighting rich and complex gay and lesbian characters and storylines.

But one of those storylines almost never came to fruition, because actor Luke Grimes (Brothers & Sisters, Fifty Shades of Grey), who played hunky vampire James in season six of the HBO hit, allegedly quit the show because he was uncomfortable playing a gay character.

Producers recast the role (he’s now played by Bunheads’ Nathan Parsons) and HBO is sticking to its original statement that the recast had to do with the “creative director on the character.”

But a source close to the show told Buzz Feed that Grimes was unhappy with the first few scripts he received, and once it became clear his character would become romantically involved with Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis), he quit the show.

According to the source, Grimes said he would be willing to play the role if Lafayette were attracted to him, but not if the feelings were mutual. He also objected to any same-sex kissing or sex scenes, but the writers refused to change the direction of the storyline...

Well untill the season premire and interaction with Lafayette, it was always him and Jessica.
As it was all they where doing was getting high ..

Well that's interesting.. thanks for the article!
