Joseph Morgan Joins Titans as Brother Blood
Best known for his iconic turn as the Original Hybrid Klaus Mikaelson in The Vampire Diaries and The Originals, British actor Joseph Morgan joins Titans, the DC TV series on HBO Max for its fourth season! Joseph will be playing Sebastian Blood, aka Brother Blood, head of the sinister Church of Blood. He is joined in the cast for season 4 by Franka Potente (Lola Rennt, The Bourne Identity) and Lisa Ambalanavar.

Per The Hollywood Reporter:
Morgan will play Sebastian Blood, aka Brother Blood, who is described as introverted and intelligent with a hidden, darker nature. Potente takes on the part of May Bennett, aka Mother Mayhem, who is a predator in human form with an unfettered belief in her mission in the world. Ambalavanar takes on the role of Jinx, a quick-witted criminal loner and a master of dark magic with a joy for manipulating others and creating chaos while doing it.

In an Instagram live late last night, after the news broke, Joseph said he’s heading to Toronto to film in a couple of weeks, but he’s been involved in the process with costume fittings etc for a few months now. He still hasn’t seen any scripts yet though. He knows the character well from reading DC comics and watching other versions of Blood (like the Teen Titans animated version). I suspect, given the heavy involvement of Raven in the Titans world, that Joseph’s version of the character will be close to the Trigon worshipping version in the comics.
Joseph will join the regular cast of Brenton Thwaites (Dick Grayson/Nightwing), Teagan Croft (Rachel Roth/Raven), Anna Diop (Kory Anders/Starfire), Ryan Potter (Gar Logan/Beast Boy), Curran Walters (Jason Todd/Red Hood), Conor Leslie (Donna Troy/Wonder Girl) and many more for the action packed fourth season of the show.
DC’s Titans airs on HBO Max in the US, and then premieres on Netflix in the UK, usually after the season is complete. We will keep you apprised of air dates as we learn more.
