Greek Reporter’s Christina Aloupi met Theo Alexander at the Greek Film festival and asked him to give advice to new actors who want to come to Hollywood. The “Greek Vampire’ talks about his heritage, how to make it in Hollywood and admits that “once you land in LA you represent Greece.”

Over the last few years, Alexander has appeared on True Blood as “Talbot” and guest-starred on Chuck, CSI: New York and Pushing Daisies. He has twice appeared on the cover of Status magazine in Greece and won the Greece People’s Choice Awards Man of the Year in 2007.

Known as Theodoris Zouboulidis in his native Greece, he changed his stage name to Alexander in America after Alexander the Great, his role model and hero.

He graduated from Boston University in 2002 with a degree in management and later studied acting at New York’s Circle in the Square theatre school.
