Season 3 of HBO’s bloodsucker saga added Kevin Alejandro as Jesus Velasquez, a witch who was also Lafayette’s lover.

“I got to go big” with that role, he reports. “My inner demon would come out, and my face would change into this serpent-like thing” — akin to "Lucifer’s" own Devil face, “but even more intense,” Alejandro attests.

(After all, he notes, “It’s kind of hard to ugly up Tom [Ellis]!”)




Following the Southland/True Blood one-two punch, Alejandro says in retrospect, “I was perceived to be on a different caliber” of actor.

“People started to take me a bit more seriously.”
