'True Blood': Alexander Skarsgard says Eric will be 'innocent' [insert Stephen Moyer pout]

Perhaps you’ve already read our recap of last weekend’s Paley Center panel with the cast of True Blood, but even so, you’ll want to watch the highlight reel below. Those upset that there were no Jason spoilers in our recap will at least get to see Ryan Kwanten here, feigning anger when Anna Paquin insinuates that Jason is too stupid to be helpful. The best part, however, comes at the 4:00 mark, when Alexander Skarsgard teases Eric’s amnesia. “He doesn’t know who he is anymore,” Skarsgard says, soliciting screams from audience members who’ve either read Book 4 of Charlaine Harris’ series and are hoping that True Blood creator Alan Ball keeps a certain TV-MA shower scene or simply want to see Skarsgard show off more of his comedic chops. “So like 1,000 years of resentment for humanity is just gone. He’s very innocent and doesn’t know who he is,” he continues, then pauses as Stephen Moyer leans over and shoots him an adorable pouty face (pictured). “[He’s] suddenly very vulnerable. So Eric needs help.” Presumably, Sookie is the one who helps Eric through his identity crisis, but Skarsgard plays coy. “There are a lot of friendly people in Bon Temps that are kind enough to help Eric,” he says. Blonde people? “There are blonde people in Bon Temps, yes.”
