Multiple sources confirm to me exclusively that ex-Smallville‘s evildoer Sam Witwer (a.k.a. Doomsday) is the odds-on favorite to play vampire Aidan in Syfy’s in-the-works U.S. remake of the UK supernatural dramedy Being Human. A final decision is expected later this week.
Additionally, Ricky Mabe (Beautiful People), Sam Huntington (Cavemen), and Aaron Ashmore (Smallville) are in the running to play werewolf Josh, and Meaghan Rath (The Assistants) is up for the role of ghost Molly.
Being Human revolves around three twentysomething roommates — named Mitchell, George, and Annie in the British version — who attempt to blend in despite, you know, being a vampire, a werewolf, and a ghost.
It’s Three’s Company meets True Blood, and it’s a big bloody hit across the pond!
