HBO ‘True Blood’ Pam Kristin Bauer van Straten Talks Musical Rumors After Series Finale

The HBO series True Blood might be dead and buried but Bon Temps is alive with The Sound of Music. Word has buzzing about the series finding new life as a musical. Now Pam actress Kristin Bauer van Straten has opened up about the new possibility of joining the cast of the musical.

True Blood composer Nathan Barr recently toldThe Associated Press about bringing True Blood back to life as a musical:

"This was something that I pitched to HBO and (show creator) Alan Ball."

He went on to hint that musical would stay closer to the start of the series:

"I think we're really going to try to return to the roots of the show...There's no guarantees. But I think the direction we're heading in is really exciting."

However, don’t expect a full cast reunion. Pam actress Kristin Bauer van Straten recently told Entertainment Weekly that she likely wouldn’t singing show tunes anytime soon:

“I can’t imagine me doing it. I’m not a singer and a dancer. In all these big musicals, we see actors who are not singers and dancers that somehow pull it off, but I would need a lot of private lessons just to have the guts. I always pictured Pam doing this great number where she sang ‘Only the Lonely’ by the Motels. I just for some reason thought that would be really funny, and I think that’s one of the four songs that I can sing. They’d have to really tailor it to me.”
