Tru Blood bottles

How do you like your synthetic blood? At a nice 98.6 degrees—or chilled on ice? Later this month, HBO will be shipping out bottles of Tru Blood, a soda version of the drink consumed by vampires on .

The 14 oz. bottles can be pre-ordered before the September 28 availability date. Four-packs will be sold for $16 each. (That does not include shipping charges.)

Evan Rachel Wood Spills True Blood

Evan Rachel Wood as Queen Sophie-AnnAcross the Universe starlet Evan Rachel Wood is shaking things up over in Bon Temps on HBO’s hit series, True Blood (not that it needs any more shaking up), and she can’t wait to drop some hints!

While Wood is no stranger to television, there is no doubt that this will be her sexiest character yet. Of her 1,100 year-old Queen Sophie-Anne, Wood explains, “She’s not necessarily a lesbian. Her human partner is a girl, but I’m pretty sure she goes both ways [laughs]. I think vampires are like that in general.”

Though she didn’t divulge a name when asked about Bill and Eric, she confirms that she’ll be having a “steamy” scene with someone whom we wouldn’t expect.

Coming from someone who nabbed a guest starring role because she herself is a fan, Rachel couldn’t believe what was in store for the last two episodes…
