‘I’ve slept with several cast members’ – Anna Paquin
Anna Paquin says she has gotten up close and personal with pretty much all of her “True Blood” co-stars (including husband Stephen Moyer).
“I’ve had sx with several cast members on the show — obviously, on camera,” she told E! Online.
“Actually, it’s not really uncomfortable because we’re all like kind of cozy and friends. It’s like, ‘Oh, I’ll put my leg there, you put your hand there. It’s OK, whatever.’”
On the set of the vampire TV series, the actress, 31, met her future husband Stephen Moyer, and the two got hitched in 2010. Charlie and Poppy, the couple’s twins, were born in 2012.
In the drama series, she plays the psychic waitress Sookie Stackhouse as it depicts the coexistence of humans and vampires in the fictional tiny town of Bon Temps in northwest Louisiana.

Anna’s real-life husband has even directed her in sx scenes with other actors, and is fine with it.
Paquin does not find the situations awkward to film.
“If you were to picture the perfect day at work for your spouse, would that be it? Probably not, but this is just kind of how it’s always been. So it doesn’t feel as bizarre,” the actress, who plays Sookie Stackhouse, mused.
For his part, Moyer believes that having the chance to direct some of his wife’s on-screen sx scenes has benefited their own marriage.
Moyer said, “In a funny way, I feel like — without revealing too much — it’s quite interesting for us as a couple because we’ve kind of gone to places where a lot of people don’t get to.
“There are moments where I’ll be watching on a monitor [and say], ‘Oh, Joe, just move your hand up towards Anna’s breast. Good. And can you move your right thumb just a little bit? Great. And then I’ll go, ‘Babe, babe, enjoy it.’ I’m certainly talking to her as ‘babe’. ‘Darling, go for it.’”
Anna and Stephen intend to unwind for a time now that the show is about to conclude. Stephen explained, “Doing a series for this long affords you the luxury of a little time to actually stop. And I’ve never stopped before so I’m really excited about doing nothing.”
The show’s composer Nathan Barr has hinted that the show may be turned into a Broadway musical.
He told E! Online: ‘The story lends itself to a musical. The challenge for us is the minute I thought about True Blood: The Musical, I myself could kind of groan. ‘
‘I can see the bad version of that. It’s really a matter of finding a way of sort of reinventing it.’
