Mariana Klaveno: True Blood

I play a character named Lorena who is the maker of Vampire Bill, who is the main vampire character on the show. I come back into present day and cause some trouble for Bill and his current girlfriend, Sookie.

When I auditioned for that part, it was listed as a “possibly recurring”, but there was no guarantee. It was just that one episode. It was a complete surprise when they called and said, “We want to bring you in season two as a serious regular,” and I had this amazing arc on season two.

I read five of the books, and they’re fun. In some ways, we stay close to them. In other ways, it’s completely different. I actually like the way that Alan and the writers have made changes and expanded the world of True Blood. I feel like the supporting cast is stronger in the series than it is in the books.

It’s a very tight group. Sadly, I don’t get to work with hardly any in the cast except for Stephen and Anna. This season, I work with a few new characters that are brought in who are fantastic. But I’m very close to Stephen and Anna. They’re wonderful people and a wonderful couple. We’ve become great friends. And the crew and the cast are very, very close. There’s a lot of bonding and going out for drinks.

Check out the trailer for Season Three:
