Some interesting news has come in regarding a possible spin-off of The CW’s uber popular series “The Vampire Diaries” that would be centered around and be called “The Originals.” Read on for the details!
Per THR’s The Live Feed, the potential new series would be an offshoot revolving around the Original family led by Klaus (Joseph Morgan), which will be set up in an episode slated to air April 25th. Executive producer Julie Plec, who will write the episode, is shepherding the spinoff with Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo as executive producers.
In said episode Klaus returns to the supernatural melting pot that is the French Quarter of New Orleans, a town he helped build centuries ago, and is reunited with his diabolical former protege Marcel. Phoebe Tonkin, formerly of “The Secret Circle,” who joined “TVD” this season in the pivotal recurring role of werewolf Haley, will also star.
If taking the Originals out of the equation for a while helps “The Vampire Diaries” get back on track, we’re all for it! Look for more soon.
