Rutina Wesley - True Blood
You're going through crazy stuff again. You have a crazy boyfriend. What's this season like?Rutina Wesley: "I'm just tied up. I mean you know it's like... You know, it sucks, but it's what I love to do. It's very challenging and I get to just emote. And I think going to the Juilliard school has trained me to do that. You know what I mean? But I hope that someone comes to her rescue or I hope she can finally escape. But he's a vampire and he's like super fast, so I don't know if I'll ever be able to escape."
Are these scripts just crazy? Every time you get one do you go, "No!"?
Rutina Wesley: "Yeah. I've been like, 'Tied up. And I'm tied up. Tied up to a toilet?!' Yeah, it's been not nerve-wracking but challenging. This is, I think, every actors dream to be on a show like this that has so many peaks and valleys. I mean Alan Ball is a genius and I love working with him, and I love my entire cast. We all really enjoy going to work every day."
All the fans have been waiting in line for the True Blood panel. How is your experience been with Comic Con?
Rutina Wesley: "This is my third season back... Season back? This is my third time back at Comic Con - it's been amazing. I mean meeting all the true, rabid fans. These people really love and care about this show. I mean I am Tara. People meet me and they're like, 'Oh my god, you're so nice!' I'm like, 'I'm not mean. I'm not going to cuss you out.' But it's just nice to be around these fans and to support people."
