Sleepy Hollow, which showed its highly entertaining pilot this week in the US, has cast True Blood‘s James Frain as a potential threat to our hero Ichabod Crane.
TVLine reports that Frain (who was psycho vamp Franklin in True Blood) will play “Rutledge, a modern-day nobleman who will interrogate Ichabod, who is being passed off as a ‘visiting Oxford professor,’ about his past.” If that doesn’t sound threatening enough, the site also reveals that “Rutledge harbors a secret that could affect Ichabod’s future.”
Sleepy Hollow begins on 9 October on Universal in the UK.
