Rutina Wesley

Mourning the end of True Blood, fangbangers?  Maybe this will help.

The True Blood complete series DVD and Blu-ray set is available Tuesday, and we have a sneak peek at the bonus features. The video below takes you behind the scenes with Rutina Wesley and Nelsan Ellis as Wesley prepares to shoot her final scene on the show. But instead of focusing on the end, Wesley asks Ellis about the duo's first scene together. 

"The first scene that we shot, I was so intimidated because Rutina is so good," Ellis says. "She's gangsta because she came in and stole that part. She said, 'Just in case you didn't know, this part belongs to me.'"

But when that final take came, Wesley says she tried to focus on the work. "They say, 'Action!' and you know it's your last shot," she says. "I just gave it everything I had and turned 
around and walked away."
