The actor, who plays Lafayette on HBO's vampire series, told DS that he is looking forward to his character being at the centre of the drama.
Asked if he will be more prominent in season three, he replied: "In the book, you had this whole world of Vampire Russell, the King of Mississippi, and I'm hoping I could be in that world. You know, Vampire Russell is gay too, so... hopefully they'll put me in there.
"But yeah, I was a little bit slighted being on the backburner this season."
Ellis also revealed that love could be on the cards for Lafayette in the upcoming season.
"Yes, there's talk [of a relationship]. I don't want a love interest though, because I think Lafayette doesn't have time! He has his businesses to deal with. Plus, it would take a special creature to pin him down."
As for who the object of his affections might be, he added: "I would love for Eric and Lafayette to get their thing on!"
