"Sam Witwer has revealed details of his forthcoming role in the US remake of Being Human. The actor will play vampire Aidan in Syfy&amp;#039;s version of the supernatural BBC drama. Witwer told Zap2it that his character will be portrayed as &amp;quot;a cross between a heroin addict and a sex addict&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;He&amp;#039;s spent 200 years of his life being a completely amoral murderer, and now he realises that he cannot continue like that,&amp;quot; he explained. &amp;quot;Everything that he knows... is patterned around feeding [and] victimising people, so he&amp;#039;s reprogramming himself. He&amp;#039;s a tortured individual.&amp;quot; However, he admitted that there are also some &amp;quot;fun&amp;quot; aspects to the part. &amp;quot;His growth was stunted from age 25 when he got turned,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;Now he&amp;#039;s rediscovering all this stuff about life, so there&amp;#039;s an odd youthfulness to the character.&amp;quot; Being Human is expected to premiere early next year on Syfy.
