True Blood (starring Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, Sam Trammell, and many others) launches its second season on HBO tonight at 9:00 p.m. with its newest episode "Nothing But The Blood."

Interview Magazine had an interview with a few of the cast members, and what with all the talk about the series as against and with Twilight, discussed a few things about the Twilight series with them.

Said they,

[With Mehcad Brooks] Can the vampire universes of True Blood and Twilight peacefully coexist?
Of course. It's not like the democrats and the republicans. Twilight is amazing. Jackson Rathbone and Edi Gathegi from the film are friends. But I think our vamps are the ones the adults watch when they tuck the kiddies into their twilight sheets and knickers.

[With Mehcad Brooks] What would a rumble between the two casts look like?
We could always have a "vamp-off" which was very common in 15th century Wallachia and current day New Orleans. But my prediction is after a couple rounds they'd be begging for their undead mothers.

[With Valerie Cruz] Can the vampire universes of True Blood and Twilight peacefully coexist?
I don't know...I think maybe the True Blood vampires would be jealous of the Twilight vampires for being so sparkly and shiny in the sun...they are the supermodels of the vampire world...and I think that we have all seen that supermodels and humans have difficulties with peaceful coexistence...a la the Naomi episodes.  
 
[With Valerie Cruz] What would a rumble between the two casts look like?
I think it would a little like the rumble in West Side story...with lots of hair product and fancy dance numbers and lots of hot men!  And Yes I think the True Blood Vampires would definately crush the sparkly Twilight Vamps,  without question.

...

[With Valerie Cruz] Which celebrity do you suspect is most likely to be a secret vampire?
Dakota Fanning....because it is probably the least obvious choice right?

The full interviews are available here.
