Stage and screen star Denis O'Hare will return to HBO's 'True Blood' this season as former vampire king 'Russell Edgington.' O'Hare revealed to TheInsider.com: "In a strange way, Russell is actually a lot funnier this season. He's not toothless, but he's a little more of a comic foil ... until he isn't. And then he becomes very, very vicious again. Which I love."

He added: "I get to dance, I get to hold a puppy and I get to sing karaoke -- a great 70s classic, not all at the same time, mind you."

True Blood season five will premiere on HBO on June 10 at 9pm.
