Look for Joe’s appearance this Saturday, May 18 at 10pm on BBC America. Below is a preview from the show.
Yesterday we posted a photo of Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin from the “First Look” section of the 5/17/13 issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine. Now, True Blood’s Joe Manganiello is another cast member to be seen on page 38 of the issue in the article titled “Guilty Pleasures.”
The caption under his photo says:
“Sure you watch for the supernatural drama. But when you check the episode rations, that’s not what the S stands for, now is it?”
Yup, we know what you mean when you say “S.”

True Blood’s Alcide, Joe Manganiello spoke to Entertainment Weekly while he was in New York City over the weekend at the Tribeca Film Festival, promoting his new short film advertising Magnum ice cream, “As Good As Gold.” During their talk, Joe leaked some hints about his character and said that new showrunner Brian Buckner, ‘starts season 6 with a bang.’
Joe goes on to say more about Buckner: “He’s letting loose a lot of the things that he’s wanted to do the past few years and maybe didn’t get around to doing.” Last we saw Alcide, he’d just become the new packmaster. “He’s in charge of this unruly group of werewolves, and it’s not the best job in the world. I’ll just say that,” the actor adds.
And, Joe fans will be happy to hear that they got a bit more:
Alcide will have more sex, he confirms. “Whether or not there are Hong Kong wires, I don’t want to give any of that away,” he says, laughing. “But we definitely get into some territory that hasn’t been covered yet on True Blood. I thought I’d done it all, seen it all, but they somehow found a way to top last year.”
As you know, Joe’s famed physique has also inspired Simon & Schuster to ask him to write a fitness book that will be on shelves in time for the holidays. Joe says:
“It’s everything that we’ve forgotten that worked from, say, the 1800s and up, combined with everything we’ve learned about the body in the past century,” says Manganiello, who’ll also share personal stories of the obstacles he’s had to overcome. “It’s meant to stand on the shoulders of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding.” Thanks to the friendship Manganiello and Schwarzenegger developed while filming David Ayer’s gritty film Ten last year, Schwarzenegger agreed to write the forward for the book.
True Blood’s Joe Manganiello is seen in the video with popsugar.com while he was in New York for the Magnum ice cream bars below. In the video he discusses his busy, busy year with all the projects he’s doing that include writing a fitness book, his new movie that comes out next year, directing a documentary and even more films to come this summer.
He talks about how Season 6 of True Blood gets “really racy right off the bat.” He also discusses a possible second Magic Mike.
Also watch Joe giving us his sexiest face in the video below during an appearance on Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live”:

Over at Spoiler Chat on E, a couple of new tidbits about Season 6 have been revealed by True Blood’s packmaster, Joe Manganiello.
Eliza asked: We’re less than two months away from the new season of True Blood, so how about some scoop to celebrate?
Well, can the possibility of death really be cause for celebration? Oh, all right. Take it away, Joe Manganiello: “We’re in the middle of episode six, moving right along. Right now, we still have the big cast with the big table-reads, but pretty soon everybody’s going to start getting knocked off!“
As for the latest showrunner swap, Manganiello says, “I think with Brian Buckner replacing Alan Ball there’s maybe some hair being let down, maybe some ‘let’s get wild, let’s get crazy!‘”
Joe Manganiello is seen below in the official film trailer for, As Good As Gold – an epic heist starring Joe, Caroline Correa and featuring Zac Posen. Cameo appearances are also made in the film by fashion bloggers Shea of Peace Love Shea, Karla of Karla’s Closet and Jane of Sea of Shoes.

Over at EOnline they shared the latest comments made by Joe Manganiello about the upcoming season of True Blood and his character of Alcide.
Here’s what they had to say:
Sorry, fans of Sookie and Alcide’s will they/won’t they tension, because the pack master is totally playing the field this season.
“Alcide is now the pack master, which means he has lots of dating options.”
It’s good to be the pack master! I remember I asked the producer, ‘What do pack masters do all day?’ And they’re like, ‘They get all the were-bitches!’” But being the leader of the pack won’t be all girls and more girls. He’s actually got to take charge of the group. “They’re an unruly bunch; they’re werewolves. So keeping them in line is a difficult job that Alcide never wanted.” And now, for the best scoop of all: How naked will Joe be this season? “I’m True Blood naked!” he assures us.
