Damien Molony joins BEING HUMAN

Monday 17 October 2011
SFX have reported that Irish actor Damien Molony has been confirmed to replace Aidan Turner on Being Human, playing a new upper-class vampire character called Hal.

Damien Molony, speaking to SFX:

"[Posh English is] a bit of a push for my accent, but it makes it a lot more fun. Hal's not Mitchell 2. There’s a lot of back story to play with and I assure you he's very, very different. At the start, [Hal] is a tweed suits man—very, very well dressed. Pressed shirts and cufflinks. The best part about playing a vampire is you get all the best clothes. I know some people have raided Aidan’s wardrobe from last year, and helped themselves to some coats and some jackets."
Series 4 of the supernatural drama is currently filming, for an early-2012 premiere on BBC Three (I'm predicting January again). Incidentally, you can follow Damien Molony on Twitter here.
