Evan Rachel Wood at an event on June 10th.

True Blood fans are in for a royal treat this season. Actress Evan Rachel Wood will be joining the cast as Louisiana’s Vampire Queen, Sophie-Anne Leclerq. Wood has already filmed a few episodes so far and producers are planning on making hers a recurring role.

In an interview, Wood had the following to say about joining the cast:
“Oh! I love being able to talk about that now. I’ve had to be so secretive about it. She’s 400 years old. Her name’s Sophie-Anne, and she’s the Vampire Queen of Louisiana. There’s a queen for every state, and that’s hers. And she’s kind of a cross between Patrick Bateman and Paris Hilton. She’s crazy. She’s just crazy. And she’s a lesbian.”

You can catch Wood tonight on Jimmy Fallon Live, on NBC at 11:35 pm. True Blood airs Sunday nights at 9pm on HBO.
