Zap2it: Where do we pick up in Season 7?
Amelia Rose Blaire: In true "True Blood" tradition, we're going to pick up right where they left off. So where we left off, the Hep-V vamps were encircling Bellefleur's. To put it nicely, s*** was about to go down. After that, I don't really want to say much else, but being the final season of "True Blood" -- which is a show that always pushes the boundaries -- I think anything can happen and everything will happen.
When you came on as Willa in Season 6, did you know how long your arc would go?
No, no. I had absolutely no idea. I had gotten cast as a recurring character, and originally I think it was only supposed to be like four episodes, and then it quickly turned into seven, and then I ended up in being in nine out of the 10, which was so special. Then when I got the call that they wanted me back as a regular, I just started crying because I couldn't believe that it was actually happening.
What do you think it is about Willa that makes her so important for this final season?
I think she played a very crucial role last season with the vamp camp and what the governor was doing to all the vampires. Eric kind of used her as the biggest pawn, in a way, so she's been put in the middle of this huge fight between vampires and humans and the intolerance that has happened. In regards to what role she's going to play in the new season, I don't want to give too much away but I think she comes into her own as what it means to be a vampire.
