Anna Paquin Reacts To 'True Blood' Reboot News

Anna Paquin is speaking out following the news that True Blood is being rebooted.
The 38-year-old actress starred as Sookie in the popular HBO series with husband Stephen Moyer, Alexander Skarsgard, Deborah Ann Woll, Joe Manganiello, Rutina Wesley, Denis O’Hare and more.
Anna even won a Golden Globe in 2009 for her role as Sookie.
The news about the reboot was announced earlier this week, with Riverdale creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa bring it back to life as a true horror show.
While no details have emerged about the plot, the original show revolved around Sookie Stackhouse, a telepathic waitress who she falls in love with 173-year-old vampire Bill Compton.
It looks like Anna was just as surprised at the news as most fans were, as was Denis.
Me too…

To my amazement, Variety has announced that a reboot of "True Blood" is in early stages of development at HBO. That's absolutely all I know.
