"Ty Olsson has won a recurring role on Supernatural. The Twilight: Breaking Dawn actor will play a vampire in the CW drama&amp;#039;s eighth season, TVLine reports. His character - the &amp;quot;dark and dangerous&amp;quot; Benny - will help Dean (Jensen Ackles) escape from Purgatory. &amp;quot;He&amp;#039;s not a good guy,&amp;quot; Ackles explained. &amp;quot;[He] stands to pose a bit of an issue for Dean, because maybe there are things that Dean has hidden that he doesn&amp;#039;t want to tell Sam (Jared Padalecki) that happened in Purgatory.&amp;quot; Olsson previously starred on Battlestar Galactica between 2005 and 2009, while his more recent credits include guest roles on ABC&amp;#039;s Once Upon a Time and AMC&amp;#039;s Hell on Wheels. He also appeared in a season two episode of Supernatural - 2006&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Bloodlust&amp;#039; - as a vampire named Eli. Olsson will make his return to the series in the season eight premiere, due to air on October 3 in the US. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
