Thanks to Jenni for the heads up.
True-Blood.net has confirmed with HBO that Robert Patrick will guest star on True Blood season 5 as Jackson Herveaux, Alcide’s father. We’ll meet him in episode 5.09, “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”, when we flashback to when Alcide and Debbie Pelt were teenagers in the 1980s. Back then, Jackson was “powerful, inspiring, and heroic”, but in present day he’s pretty much given up on life. He’ll be a recurring guest star.

I love Robert Patrick so I am certainly down for this. Also excited to see him on Last Resort in the fall.
ReplyDeleteJust like Tommy and Laffayette's ex, Alcide never really caught my interest and he had more than one season to do so.
ReplyDeleteWell I guess we know what the end credit music will be in that episode! XD
ReplyDeleteEvery time I hear that song I think of Real Genius with William Atherton and Val Kilmer (back when he used to still be Val Kilmer).... Stupid fun 80's movie I still adore.

This is going to be SO strange for me - I think I'll always picture him as the coach from The Faculty haha
ReplyDeleteI like Robert Patrick but I'm having difficulty picturing him as Alcide's father or doing a similar accent to the one Alcide has.
