True Blood executive producer Alexander Woo has claimed that the show's fourth season will see the vampires face their toughest threat yet.
The new season will see a coven of witches introduced as part of the main storyline, and Woo has said that the coven leader Marnie, portrayed by Harry Potter star Fiona Shaw, will become the 'big bad' of the series.
"I'd say the witches certainly pose the greatest threat to the vampires that we've seen yet," Woo revealed to The Hollywood Reporter. "I think what [the witch coven] represents is the power of the human and sort of the power of life.
"[Whereas vampires] represent death and it's the contrast of life versus death, with human versus vampire, that I think is the crux of this season," he continued.
Shaw herself said that viewers will initially see her character as a relatively meek housewife, but will soon learn that she is much more than that.
"She's pretty bad, but she's also pretty good," Shaw explained. "She's a pathetic person who becomes very powerful and maybe starts to abuse her power.
"[She] goes after pretty well anyone who crosses her path."
The new season sees the introduction of several new guest stars, including Scott Foley, Katherine Helmond, Courtney Ford, Dane DeHaan, Janina Gavankar, Alexandra Breckenridge, Vedette Lim, Daniel Raoul and Gary Cole.
