Tru: New love interest?

Will Tru have a new love interest this season?

Jensen Ackles--the delicious heartthrob whom you may
remember from Dawson's Creek, Days of Our Lives, Dark Angel and E! Online's Sizzlin' 16 2004 --is joining Smallville this season. Everyone and their mother (even mine) knows that, has set the TiVo and has the drool bucket standing by. But here's what you don't know--he almost got a gig on one of our favorite shows, one that almost didn't make it to its second season. Yep, Tru Calling.​

A source tells me the producers were rabid about Jensen, asking him over and over to join the show as Eliza Dushku's love interest for the new season. Seems they had it bad for him and were heartbroken when J.A. declined, only to take up residence in Smallville instead.

But here's the genius part. Instead of crying over spilled yummies, the producers simply moved forward, cast some other schmoe and renamed the character Jensen. How scrumptious is that?

Now, mind you, both Smallville and Tru Calling shoot in Vancouver, Canada, so the casting peeps are still hoping Jensen might pop over for an episode or two. (Please, oh, please!).
Meanwhile, Tru herself, Eliza Dushku, was looking stunning per usual at Comic-Con and gave a few hints on what to expect in the upcoming season.

"We have Jason Priestley coming back, and I couldn't be happier about that," says Eliza. "He's been so much fun, and he's great, because he gives Tru someone to play off. We know now what Tru's job is in the universe, and now she appears to have an opposite. We'll be asking, is one of them right? Is one of them wrong? We kind of open up the mythology a little bit."

Jon Harmon Feldman, creator and executive producer of Fox's paranormal TV series Tru Calling, told SCI FI Wire that the upcoming second season sees Tru Davies (Eliza Dushku) getting a new love interest and Jack Harper (Jason Priestley) becoming the show's resident villain. In the show, Davies rewinds time in order to save lives; Harper uses a similar ability to ensure that those fated to die actually breathe their last breath. "I think it just heightens [everything]," Harmon said in an interview. "Tru knows that every week there is going to be an additional obstacle in the form of Jack Harper."

Feldman added, "What I think is interesting is that as the season progresses there will be times that they will be forced to switch sides or work with each other, despite Tru's distaste for that. What we're trying hard to do is keep that relationship very unpredictable. I think are some nice surprises for both of those characters and their interactions with each other as we get into season two."

Tru's previous boyfriend, Luc (Matthew Bomer), died at the end of season one. Feldman revealed that a new character, Jensen (Eric Christian Olsen), will be introduced early in season two and could evolve into a love interest for Tru. Jensen and Tru will make each other's acquaintance at the medical school they'll both attend. "Let's just say that every romance has more than meets the eye," Feldman said. "Tru and Jensen will go down a very interesting path. When we first see her she is, I think, a little hesitant, following the death of Luc, to dive into anything. But she's going to find herself with more than she bargained for." Tru Calling will begin its second season Nov. 4 on Fox and will air Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
