VIDEO: Evan Rachel Wood Delves Into the Darker Side of The Classic Movie ‘Big’

What if Tom Hanks Was a 13 Year Old GIRL Trapped in a Grown Up Body:

Evan Rachel Wood as Queen Sophie-AnneThe classic family movie, Big, stars Tom Hanks and tells the story of a 13 year old boy who wishes to be a grown up – and manages to get that wish granted! In among all the trials and tribulations that arise with a kid trapped inside an adults body, there is also the suggestion of romance. This is really cute, until you consider the implications. Which is what Funny or Die did recently. Not only did they explore the darker side of a 13 year old getting romantically involved with a grown up, they also took it to a whole other level when they invited Evan Rachel Wood (who played the vampire queen Sophie Anne Leclerq in HBO’s True Blood) to bring a female aspect to the lead role.

This video is completely NSFW, so make sure you are discrete when viewing it since it contains a vast amount of F-bombs.

The video also stars Darren Criss (who stars as the Kurt’s love interest, Blaine, in Fox’s TV series Glee) as Evan’s love interest. Clicking on the image below will open up the Funny or Die video clip in a new window for your viewing enjoyment.

Evan Rachel Wood Returns to HBO for Westworld

Leave a comment

From True Blood Vampires to Dystopia:

Evan-Rachel-Wood-203x300Fans of Evan Rachel Wood’s interpretation of the vampire queen of Louisiana, Sophie Anne Leclerq, in True Blood are in for a treat with recent announcement of her return to HBO. It has been confirmed that Wood has signed on for Westworld, an adaptation of Michael Crichton’s 1973 dystopian theme park film. A pilot episode has been commissioned for release in 2015 and also stars Anthony Hopkins (Silence of the Lambs). This is the first time Hopkins will appear as a regular character in a television series. The Telegraph released these details on his character:

Hopkins will play Dr Robert Ford, the inspired but aloof director of Westworld, an amusement park of the future where life-like cyborgs provide guests with ultra-realistic simulations of past ages. The park is transformed into a zone of terror when its central computer malfunctions, and forces two visitors into a cat-and-mouse chase with a gun-slinging android cowboy.

In the original movie, Yul Brynner fulfilled the role of the gun-slinging android cowboy.

HBO released the following images and video via Twitter to coincide with their announcement:

Evan Rachel Wood on Being Bisexual and a Belieber

1 Comment

Queen Sophie-Anne on Love and Justin Bieber:

Evan Rachel Wood as Queen Sophie-AnneNot only does Bon Temps’ deceased vampire queen, Sophie-Anne LeClerq prefer to romanticize with women, but so does actress Evan Rachel Wood… well, Wood is really an equal-opportunist when it comes to romance.

On being bisexual:

“That’s a big part of who I am, and it always has been for as long as I can remember. I can’t say I’m one way or the other, because I’ve honestly fallen in love with a man and I’ve honestly fallen in love with a woman. I don’t know how you label that, it’s just how it is.”

On Justin Bieber’s Never Say Never, Wood admits:

“I ended up seeing it three times — in the theaters. One of those times was the director’s cut, I’m not even kidding. I got obsessed with the kid. It’s going to be weird if I ever meet him. He’s brought so much joy to my life.”

Wood stopped by Chelsea Handler’s E! show, Chelsea Lately, to talk about her admiration for Justin Bieber and what it felt like to be invited to George Clooney’s lake house.

On Justin Bieber:

“This is going to be my legacy, from now on. Forget all the acting. It’s just all going to be about Justin Bieber.”

“There is nothing more embarrassing than that… I was in a car and he was on a bike.”

True Blood Star Evan Rachel Wood Thinks Sex Scandals Aren’t That Scandalous

Leave a comment

New Film “The Ides of March”:

Queen Sophie Anne (Evan Rachel Wood)Evan Rachel Wood, True Blood‘s Queen Sophie Anne, is appearing in The Ides of March. This political thriller stars George Clooney, Ryan Gosling and many others. The film deals with many issues, including sex scandals, and according to Wood that’s fine. In a recent interview the actress quotes one of the most poignant lines from the movie: “You can start a war, you can bankrupt a country but you can’t sit with the interns.”

Wood does not consider sitting with the interns that scandalous:

“We make such a big deal about these sex scandals, which are actually the most natural things in the world and everyone has skeletons in their closet and it actually shouldn’t matter at all. I don’t want to know. People can do whatever they want with themselves and that’s fine. It has nothing to do with the way you conduct yourself at your job.”

The True Blood actress enjoyed working with director George Clooney “…I really like working with directors who are actors because you speak the same language.” Wood didn’t go method on this project; she relied on documentaries and information given by director George Clooney. Even though the film is serious, the making of it was very enjoyable. Wood describes the fun atmosphere Clooney created on set:

“And he made sure everyone was having a great time. I think he knows that if your cast and crew are happy then you’re going to get good work. That’s actually really rare. But that’s why I loved working with him.”

With True Blood over, chances to see our favorite TV stars are few and far between. Will you be heading to the movies to see Queen Sophie Anne in this political thriller? Do you think sex scandals are a big deal? Share you comments and thoughts with us in the section below.

Queen Sophie Anne Grows Up:

Evan Rachel Wood as Queen Sophie AnneIn her latest interview for NYMag.com, Evan Rachel Wood talks about her lack of shock in political scandals, her latest “grown-up” movie, Ides of March, and working with George Clooney as both a director and a fellow actor.

When talking about her Ides of March co-star Ryan Gosling, she muses that he may be this generation’s James Dean:

“There’s something really special here. It’s that striking. I think he’s the James Dean of now. And he’d better kiss my ass for saying that.”

Wood also shows her lighter side, discussing a recent YouTube video that popped up with her covering Justin Bieber:

“I was in China randomly — I know, it’s already weird [laughs] — and I’m a big karaoke fan and I also love Justin Bieber unashamedly.”

She mentions that she also made a Janis Joplin video.  Wood goes on to talk about her love of making music and while it’s always been a personal passion, it may become something she’s interested in pursuing publicly in the future.  It seems that she may join the rank of actors who are a double force in the creative world!

So, do you agree with Evan Rachel Wood that Ryan Gosling is this generation’s James Dean?  Do you share her unabashed love of Justin Bieber?  Share your thoughts in the comments below!

Evan Rachel Wood Esquire Reveal — Bisexuality, Tattoos and Sexy Lingerie

Evan Rachel Wood Esquire Shoot

True Blood’s Queen: Evan Rachel Wood

Evan Rachel Wood recently gave Esquire an interview and did a very hot and sexy photo shoot in Gothic black fishnet stockings and a peek-a-boo bodysuit revealing a very fit and trim physique and a playful mindset. You can even glimpse one of her nine, yes nine, tattoos.

How does Wood describe herself? She tells Esquire:

“I’m constantly changing, I’m constantly growing. I think I’m a little controversial? … I just try and keep some mystery, so hopefully people can’t really put their finger on it.”

Ms. Wood, who used to date gender blender rocker Marilyn Manson:

She says she’s feeling free and genuinely happy these days. “I’m up for anything. Meet a nice guy, meet a nice girl…”

This is the third such hint in the conversation, after that androgyny comment and saying she’d “marry” her Mildred Pierce costar Kate Winslet if she could.

You date women?

“Yes,” she says proudly, as if she was waiting to be asked.

Do you look for different things in men than in women?

“Yeah, I’m more kind of like the guy when it comes to girls. I’m the dominant one.” It’s with women, she says, that her inner North Carolina gentleman comes out: “I’m opening the doors, I’m buying dinner. Yeah, I’m romantic.”

For more photos and dish on each of her tattoos read the rest of the story at Esquire. Ms. Wood has a new movie coming in wide release this fall in George Clooney’s film, The Ides of March.

Evan Rachel Wood Attends “Mildred Pierce” Premiere

Does Our Queen Reign Supreme?

True Blood's Evan Rachel Wood @ Mildred Pierce premiereEvan Rachel Wood, otherwise known as Queen Sophie-Anne on HBO‘s True Blood, recently attended the premiere of Mildred Pierce.  She plays Veda Pierce, eldest daughter of Mildred (played by Kate Winslet).  Both actresses looked stunning on the red carpet, but the Huffington Post Style section would like to know who you think was best dressed?

Evan wore head-to-toe plum in a long-sleeved, drapey dress by Elie Saab, strappy peep-toe heels, and perfectly plum lips.  Her hair was blonde, which Truebies are not used to, but it looked natural and elegant.

Kate Winslet @ Mildred Pierce Premiere

Kate wore a fitted black Stella McCartney dress, also long-sleeved, which was sheer and dotted all down the left side.  She opted for a black, single-strap heel.  Her makeup was natural, with sheer, nude lips, and she wore her hair up in a simple yet stylish ‘do.

If you’d like to vote in the poll, you may do so by clicking on the link below.  Or just tell us in the comments — do you prefer Kate Winslet’s look, or does our Queen reign supreme?

Evan Rachel Wood Dishes on True Blood, Sookie, and Season 4

1 Comment

A New Love Interest…Perhaps.

ERW by Steve GranitzIt’s a long wait until June, but luckily for True Blood fans Evan Rachel Wood (Queen Sophie Anne) recently dished on our favorite show and Season 4!  The talented actress chatted with Fancast about working on True Blood, the Queen’s sexuality and whether or not we’ll see the Queen pursue Sookie – romantically.

Wood discussed the sexy and “beautiful gore” nature of vampire themed shows. Because of her involvement, she’s now stopped on the street by True Blood fans addressing her as “The Queen”. The good news is that she doesn’t mind! And while she couldn’t reveal any specifics, she described season 4 by saying she knew it would “be out of control”.

Discussing her character more, Wood went on to talk about Sophie Anne’s sexuality and whether she thinks the Queen is bisexual or a lesbian:

“Vampires, are I think in general just both.  I don’t think there is a preference for them.  But she has made her choice.  I would say she is a lesbian.”

When asked if the Queen was really going to pursue a relationship with Sookie, Evan responded:

“I hope so!  Come on, it’s gotta happen.”

Would you like to see something brew between the Queen and Sookie? What other new relationships do you hope are in store for us? Let us know in the comment section below!
