She truly believes that Jason was sent here for her and that's why she's taken aback in Episode Seven when she believes that he was a spy. She does believe that everything happens because God is willing it to be. She's faced with something that's completely the opposite of what she was brought up to believe and seeing how her husband treated Sookie and seeing he wants to cross the line into killing the vampire sympathizers, that's not something that Sarah wants to do. She meets Jason Stackhouse and is thrown off guard by that relationship when she's already doubting her husband and her faith. She's definitely taken down a journey that she didn't expect to go down.
Then she faces all of these situations that he's putting her through and surprising her. She comes in very strong and knowing who she is and believing in God and following her husband. How would you describe your character?Ĭamp: I think that she is discovering who she is all the time too. Televisionary: Sarah Newlin seems to be a mass of swirling contradictions.

It's just so creative and not like anything else on TV right now and I was really glad that he gave me that call. I just fell in love with the storyline and, being from the South originally, I had to be on this show at some point. (Laughs) So I didn't have to audition we just talked on the phone, so it was the best kind of audition in a way. Then a year later when he was looking to cast someone for Sarah, he called me up and offered me the part, which was really exciting. for Sookie! (Laughs) And of course didn't get cast.

So what are you waiting for? Toss your hair, flash your pearly whites, sharpen a stake and let's see what Anna Camp had to say about True Blood.

HBO's seductive vampire drama series True Blood is positively overflowing with memorable and flawed characters but one of this season's most indelible and dynamic character additions is that of naughty preacher's wife Sarah Newlin, played with delicious aplomb by South Carolina native Anna Camp.
