Deadline reports that Christopher Heyerdahl - best known for his role in three of the
Twilight Saga films - has joined the cast of 's hit vampire series
True Blood, which is set to begin its fifth season this summer. Heyerdahl, who's also played a demon in CW's
Supernatural, will have a recurring role in the show as 'Dieter Braun', who is described as
"an ancient, powerful vampire who plays a large part in the intelligence of the Authority and especially enjoys enhanced interrogation." the description sounds similar to his
Twilight character, who is also an ancient vampire.
As stated above, the fifth season of
True Blood (which will have 12 episodes) - which also added
Man Of Steel's Christopher Meloni not too long ago - will begin airing this summer on HBO.
