Alcide Herveaux (werewolf)
It’s hard not to picture Joe Manganiello for this role. Indeed, I’ve never tried. 🙂
Calvin Norris (werepanther)
Let’s not talk about the show’s characterization of this werepanther. I hated it! However, I’ve included Calvin in my stories several times. In the AH Comfortably Numb Series, I cast Mark Harmon.
For Not Without Action, I went with Dermot Mulroney.
Debbie Pelt (werewolf or werefox)
Whether she’s a werefox (like in the books) or a werewolf (as in the show), I picture Brit Morgan–whom I think did a great job on the show.
Jackson Herveaux (werewolf)
In The Trunk Trilogy, I used actor Robert Patrick, who is also the actor used on the television show.
Sam Merlotte (shifter–dog)
I thought Sam Trammell was really good in the role. For the record, I ultimately hate what was done with this character in both the show and the books. 😦 I try to do better in my works.
