Yep. Doesnt look like theres a bump. She was carrying twins, so could have definitely delivered early. Hope things are all right with the babies. If they are too premature they might have to do a stint in the NICU. And they would want to keep that information private.

I hope they will find the male lead for this "Fifty Shades"-crap (that I had to read on the job by the way... 
) soon, so that they can all stop to ask him about it.
Oh dear, I should probably talk to Mr Bee about that.
) soon, so that they can all stop to ask him about it. I believe in last year's Elle UK interview he promised to marry all of us.
"that is obviously about 50 Shades! *trollface*
AAAAAAAAAAAGH Don't even jest about that, someone will take it seriously!
Oh dear, I should probably talk to Mr Bee about that.
That was on my mind too. I've got my fingers crossed for them. Her and Stephen seem like a lovely couple.
On another note, I laughed out loud at Julianne Moore's response to the 50 question. Another reason she's my favourite actress.
Her reaction was hilarious! She does disdain so well...
Love all the posts and pics and to the posters who are keeping us up to date.
Oh thanks so much for that Syd! I hope they release a longer version of this at some point it was just so adorable.
Thanks again to FreeSpirit, sydneygirl, Santress, Zola and all the other lovelies for posting all the news, vids & pics 
The TIFF homepage says, that there will be screeings of Disconnect. I put the schedule in quotes for you:
Does someone knows, if Alex will be there?
I thought, he left Toronto and is already back on set in Vancouver. If I got him right, he said in one of the red carpet interviews (the vids you posted) that he wasn't sure if he would made it to TIFF at all. But because they'd shot all his scenes which were planed to be shot on Friday already on Thursday, he was able to be there.
To me that doesn't sounded like Alex is done but someone said, that Hidden is already wraped - is that right?

I think The Hidden still has about a week left of filming, if I remember correctly.
Thank you for posting both videos
You sure are determined Me too :giggles:
And yeah, very best wishes to Stephen and Anna who do indeed seem to be so in love and happy
Her reaction was hilarious! She does disdain so well...

Alexander Skarsgard Answers Your Questions

TORONTO— During our time at the Toronto International Film Festival, we’ve been talking to filmmakers and actors and, on this occasion, taking some of your questions with us. On Saturday, we solicited questions for Alexander Skarsgard, who plays the Teutonic vampire Eric Northman in the HBO series “True Blood” and is here to promote “What Maisie Knew,” an adaptation of the Henry James novel set in New York City. We received quite a number of varied questions and chose a selection to ask the Swedish-born Mr. Skarsgard, whose character, Lincoln, is a bartender who gets caught up in a nasty custody battle after he marries Julianne Moore’s Susanna. Below are his responses.

Features, news, interviews and more.
Q.
I was really struck by the different physical characterizations of Lincoln and Eric after attending [Friday's] premiere of “What Maisie Knew,” and having just finished watching the season finale of “True Blood.” What discussions or collaborations are involved in determining the physical presence and representation of a character? — Ellen C, Toronto
A.
To me, it’s all about inspiration. What gets me creatively excited is a challenge. There’s gotta be a discovery. When I read a script and have my first interaction with this character, do I feel like there’s something I’m gonna learn here? If I feel like it’s something I’ve done before, then what’s the incentive for me to do it? That’s why, after playing Eric Northman for seven months shooting a season, I don’t want to play Eric Northman in a movie, but just without fangs. I want to try new things.
Nicole Rivelli
Mr. Skarsgard with Onata Aprile in “What Maisie Knew.”
Q.
Wondering if you are in interested in doing a comedy? — Gina Bianchin, Chicago
A.
Yeah, absolutely. I’ve done that in Sweden before. My first film out here was actually a comedy, “Zoolander,” many years ago. I had a small part in that. But I’d love that. It’s different, and something I haven’t done in a while.
Q.
Concerning your career: Who would you love to work with? Do you think you will ever direct a movie? — Elaine, Nashville
A.
Isabelle Huppert, the French actress. She’s amazing. And I’ve directed a bit in Sweden. I wrote and directed a short film a couple of years ago. It’s called “To Kill a Child.” Very uplifting (laughs). It’s based on a short story about a car accident and a man kills a child. My kid brother who is now 17, but he was 8 when we shot it, plays the little kid in the movie. I want to do more. It’s just about finding the right project and, obviously, timing.
Q.
If you had the opportunity to play any of the characters that your father has played in any of his films, what would it be and why? — Mar, Mexico City
A.
Maybe “The Simple-Minded Murderer,” a Swedish film he did years ago. That’s a really, really good role. Also “Breaking the Waves” is definitely up there.
“I don’t want to play Eric Northman in a movie, but just without fangs.”
— Alexander Skarsgard
Q.
What are your favorite things about Sweden that you can’t get in the States? — Jasmine, Omaha
A.
The most obvious answer is: the reason I go home is family. But also, I’ve been in L.A. for 8 years, so all my memories there are from being an adult; oh, I went to that restaurant with that friend. In Stockholm, it goes deeper because when I walk down the streets, every single street corner will mean something. There will be a history there. There’s a connection to my childhood there. It means so much to me to go home and relive all those memories.
Q.
Do you feel the public perception of you as a sex symbol impacts your real life relationships in either a positive or negative way? — Jacqueline Haun, Lawrenceville, N.J.
A.
No, I never Google myself or read blogs about me. I’m scared, I wouldn’t want to do that and don’t think that would be good for me. In terms of jobs, I’m an actor. There’s gotta be depth there. I’d never say yes to something just to play the hot guy. That’s not what I’m interested in. Creatively that’s not fun for me.
“I’d never say yes to something just to play the hot guy. That’s not what I’m interested in.”
— Alexander Skarsgard
Q.
You’ve played many roles in adaptations of novels. Do you have any favorite books that you would love to act in the adaptation of?— Fiona, Sydney, Australia
A.
There’s that I really like and it might happen, but I don’t know yet. So it’s difficult to talk about that one. But “Lolita” is one of my favorite novels. But there’s already two special film versions of that, so…
Q.
Would like to know which of the characters that Mr. Skarsgard has played has been the most challenging and why?— Katerina, Ont., Canada
A.
Brad Colbert in “Generation Kill.” It was my first big role in the States. It was a very intense experience. We shot it for seven months in the Kalahari desert. It’s about the war in Iraq, not the politics of it, but about the men and women there on the ground. So I just think I felt the weight of that and the importance of getting it right.

Q.
How difficult is it to develop the accent and body language of another culture? As an American, I am especially interested in the ease, or difficulty, of ‘becoming American’. — Pat, Eugene, Ore.
A.
I come up with thousands of ideas, from how he speaks, what his posture is, how he walks. And then 99% will be crap. But then you filter it and you find the little things that you actually like, once you’ve thought about it for a while. And that’s how you start finding the character.
Q.
Will you marry me? — Amy Lynn, Lexington
A.
Of course.

JJ reports that Anna had her twins. A few weeks earlier than expected but everyone's healthy.

Oh thanks - that's great news
resentsSaw this yesterday and thought it was kinda cute, and still do, so I'm posting it. No wonder Alex, and Julienne, reportedly scooped Onata up in their arms when they first met her again

D listed just posted this (as always hilarious)article on the baby-news, including a very cute photo

Sookeh And Beeeeeeeeehl Had Twins
On a recent night at Merlotte's, Anna Paquin sprawled out onto the pool table and hollered out a chorus of orgasm moans as her body twitched and pushed out two ethereal orbs of light that turned out to be two fairy vampire babies. No, True Blood isn't just a show. It's also a documentary about fairy birth and Anna Paquin is a fairy in real life.
A rep for Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer tell People that after being knocked up for what felt like a quick second, Sookeh birthed out twins sometime recently.
“We can confirm that Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer recently welcomed their twins into the world. The babies were born a few weeks early, but are in good health and both Mom and Dad are overjoyed.”
The rep didn't offer up a name or even say if Sookeh and Beeehl had two boys, two girls or one of each. I'm going to go ahead and guess that Sookeh and Beehl haven't come up with names yet, because she's been too busy trying to explain herself after the twins came out looking like this: *photo of boy and girl-Skars*
Eventually they'll call them Eric Lafayette and Erica Pamara.
