Last season's finale episode was full of the series's requisite cliffhangers, and while the cast kept tight-lipped on many of the upcoming plot twists, Rutina's appearance on the carpet added fuel to the rumors that Tara isn't dead after all and will be back in Bon Temps this year. There will also be several new characters on True Blood this season. Law and Order alum Christopher Meloni will appear as the head of the Authority, and there are several werewolves, vampires, and humans joining the cast.

The Margaret trailer takes us back to 2005, the year the movie was filmed and its star Anna Paquin was still young enough to play a 17-year-old high school student. After many delays, we're finally seeing the first footage of the Kenneth Lonergan film in which Paquin plays the emotionally torn title character, who battles feelings of guilt after a tragic bus accident leaves a woman dead.
Believing she is partly responsible for the death, Margaret begins to spiral out of control as she attempts to deal with her emotions. As if that isn't bad enough, the bus driver (Mark Ruffalo) gives her a tough time about her desire to come forward with the truth behind what really happened the day of the accident. She begins to crumble in some predictable ways, like letting her grades slip and pushing her family away, as well as some not so predictable ways, like an affair with her teacher, played by Matt Damon. Paquin seems to handle Margaret's dark, emotional journey beautifully, and I'm eager to see her on the big screen again and playing someone besides Sookie Stackhouse. Have a look for yourself before the film hits theaters on Sept. 30 when you read more

Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer were arm in arm at the premiere of True Blood last night in Hollywood, joining their costar Alexander Skarsgard for the big debut. The onscreen vampires may be part of a love triangle on the HBO hit, but off screen, the trio are close friends. Stephen recently said he thinks the romance heating up between Anna's Sookie and Alexander's Eric will be a good thing for the series, but he personally chooses not to watch his wife tape love scenes with Alex. Stephen is on the cover of Men's Health's new issue, in which he opened up about falling in love with Anna during the show's first months by sometimes Skyping for two or three hours a night! Alexander, Anna, and Stephen's many costars were also on hand to toast the program and its success. Werewolf Joe Manganiello looked rugged in red, and Ryan Kwanten, Nelsan Ellis, and Todd Lowe rounded out the cute guys on the carpet. Meanwhile, Evan Rachel Wood debuted a bold, cropped hairstyle, Deborah Ann Woll looked lovely in a lace gown by Tadashi Shoji, and Rutina Wesley glowed in a simple, beaded dress. The countdown is on for fans of the drama — True Blood season four debuts on this Sunday, June 26!
