How you got last night? Were you surprised by the warmth of the Roma Fiction Fest?
Alexander Skarsgard: True Blood before I did not know what to expect, it seems to me that our series is very popular here and I did not know it was so popular in Italy. I enjoyed it a lot, it was fun to meet all these fans. I just finished shooting a film for which I had to make a tough diet for two months for that to come to Rome and support this event, being able to go to dinner to eat and drink without the end it was a memorable experience.
Kristin Bauer: I take it that diet throughout the year, I came to Rome and I took the baggy jeans on purpose. A part of jokes, it was a surprise to come here and find this response from the public. It is not the same as going on google and see how much emphasis has the series, watch the fan in the face is something totally different, much more genuine.
Valentina Cervi: for me it was probably different than that for them, this is my country and in the cinema is facing a very complicated stage, be part of a show that is going so strong an emotion. Probably I really realized the importance that this series has for me only last night, with the confrontation with the public.
Valentina, tell us about your character
Valentina Cervi: it is called Salome, Salome is inspired by all that we know from the Bible that of Oscar Wilde. He is a person who uses his public position and his seduction to achieve its goals, it actually has a deep wound inside her and than I can hide it, this wound the door to a dark side of his life
Valentina, as has happened to you this opportunity and how you found with the rest of the cast?
Valentina Cervi: very simply, I did three auditions, Alan Ball has seen a small part that I had to audition English and I think he found some similarities between me and the character I was looking for. However, it all went in a very alchemical, just the idea that the director had been corresponding for the part. I had an amazing time in the family of True Blood, where there are no prima donnas, no star but a really good pool of actors and artists. In America there is a professionalism for which you can not afford to make mistakes.
I know that you were directed by Stephen Moyer in one of the episodes of the fifth season, I wanted to know how it was to be directed by a colleague with whom you usually play, a friend I guess.
Alexander Skarsgard: I loved working with Stephen when he directed the episode, of course, know the characters very well, I'm 5 years working together. He is a very talented director, why the have assigned this task, plus it's one of my best friends so I hope you come back to direct other
Kristin Bauer: Steve over the years has become the guru on the set to which I refer for any questions. He is a natural director, there is a basic trust that is the basis of our relationship so it was very easy and fun to be directed by him.
Alexander Skarsgard: I think this has to do with the fact that they are working together for five years and as a result we know each other so well that we know how to take and what to advise each other.
Valentina Cervi: from what I know they were five years that Stephen wanted to direct an episode. He had already asked in the second season but Alan had advised him to wait as it was not ready yet.
First, reference was made to the success of the previous four seasons, on this social network are a catalyst, an important tool to achieve even more fame to you?
Alexander Skarsgard: I'm terrified of social, I try to stay away from Twitter, Facebook and all these blogs. Do not get me wrong, I appreciate very much the fact that they exist and that they are dedicated to me or the show, with people who work hard to bring them forward, but in my private life I prefer to stay out, it scares me, I do not think I do as well as an actor even be human. Kristin law often all that is on the internet about it and if you read 20 reviews, 19 are fantastic if negative you will remain engraved for ever. Just a comment 4 years to make it even cry. That's why I keep away from all these blogs and fan sites.
Kristin Bauer: of course there are the downsides of it, my husband at Christmas wearing a ridiculous hat that I photographed and posted on Facebook and the next day the picture went around the world, this is really inconvenient. But you can make a sensible use of social, now embrace this world, I look at my numbers and I like the support of the fans, can in this way to pursue all initiatives for charitable purposes which I work.
Valentina Cervi: I like Alex a refusal with respect to social mostly for the coolness that this medium. Of course it is extraordinary freedom but I avoid reading blogs and sites because a few times I did it and I read about the things that are really terrible.
How much will Alan Ball? (be missed)
Alexander Skarsgard: Alan will not be missed at all because it will remain producer of the series. His office is next to ours. This is his creation, it is impossible not to be involved. The fact that there will not affect its name. There is the same writing staff that we have had to date so fans will not notice the slightest difference.
Kristin Bauer: I agree but I do not like change in general, so the last time we did a reading I asked firmarmi the script but he told me he will not go anywhere, will always be there . I really think we can get away with whatever.
Valentina Cervi: I can only say that the good fortune to have worked with him was great, it really is a genius. Have been a member for only this year, his last season was an honor.
Do you think that the key to winning True Blood is also the fact that a show antithetical to and different from other films and series focused on vampires?
Valentina Cervi: the vampire is an excuse to talk about something else and take a different direction. Use the primordial vampire to tap into the incredible variety of colors that the human being, without taking themselves too seriously.
Alexander Skarsgard: I do not know very well the other vampire show, so I do not know what to say.
Kristin Bauer: I've never seen Vampire Diaries, but I'm back to being sixteen reading Twilight, then I took my grandchildren to see the movies based on the books and they have them worshiped. I've always loved vampires, but I prefer when they can not go out during the day.
True Blood is probably the sexiest show of the television world, I wanted to ask how you establish the atmosphere is recreated on the set
Alexander Skarsgard: certainly we roam for the set always feeling very excited, this is the real trick
Valentina Cervi I knew that there would be some nudity and I was very worried and talking with others, I just told you that I always han naked on the set. I asked how I could do and I was simply told to stop eating. It worked.
In the series there are vampires in different eras, of what age you want to be?
Alexander Skarsgard: I'm lucky because my vampire thousand years, and this allows me to show my character in different eras, giving me the opportunity to shoot in different scenarios. I'd like to do something maybe in Rome or France, that of the seventeenth century, it might be cool to see Eric descend at that time
Kristin Bauer: I like the time when I was created but it would be nice to see my character even in the sixties, in the midst of the hippies.
You have an idea of ​​how long it can last True Blood? Have you ever talked about the possible future seasons?
Alexander Skarsgard: Our characters do not age, so in the end we have a problem. When I have sixty-five and older who do not construe Eric might be inconvenient, at which point we'll do, as long as I have the feeling that the writing is done well and feel the challenge will go ahead. Who knows, I can not tell what will happen next.
