True Blood fans will be introduced to a villainous man named Mr. Gus in season 7, according to a new report by E! Online. The report claims that Mr. Gus is a native of Japan who has embraced an "everything's bigger in Texas" lifestyle. Mr. Gus will be on a quest for revenge in the upcoming season, and he will prove himself to be someone not to be crossed with.

It was also recently announced that the final season of True Blood would feature the introduction of a new character called "The Figure." True Blood producers sent out a casting call for The Figure, as discovered by TVLine, and the creature is described as "scary, hulking, ugly, mean and crafty... like Leatherface or Jason Voorhees, but this guy talks."
