We had a writers’ boot camp that lasted about a month, and we teed up our first five episodes pretty cleanly. We have so much that we’ve discussed for the next season that is thrilling. Have you set guidelines and a rulebook for this new “purgatory”? This introduces the possibility of seeing a new dimension for the show to explore.
#THE VAMPIRE DIARIES SEASON 6 EPISODES SERIES#
STORY: ‘Vampire Diaries’: Matt Davis Returning as Series Regular for Season 6 It’s really more about the mystery of what happened to them and how we’ll see them again - and in what context will we see them again. It’s going to be a big mystery about what happens and what our heroes can do about it, if anything.īut the finale wasn’t the last we’ve seen of Ian Somerhalder and Kat Graham, correct? That was one of the biggest questions viewers seemed to have following the finale: Where did they go?ĭid they find peace? Are we going to be left with Damon and flashbacks and hallucinations and memories for the entirety of season six? Did they find their way somewhere else, and if so, where? I can you tell that the Other Side no longer exists, so they’re not there.

Now we’re left with the mystery of, with the Other Side gone, where the hell are they? We all sort of said, “Oh my god, are we going to pull this off?” And we spent the year figuring our way there. When we decided that, once and for all, the Other Side was going to go away, we decided to put Bonnie and Damon into that predicament. Was this always the ending that you wanted the season to build up to, or were there hesitations about killing two core characters? Last year, you said that the season-five finale was going to be a “mindf-,” and you weren’t kidding. Somebody said, “I feed on the tears on fangirls. As a storyteller, I want to take people on the deepest of emotional journeys. Someone tweeted me “Do you get off on causing people pain?” ( Laughs.) It’s like, um, no! As a fan of television, I love when I cry when I watch TV.

Serious question: Do you have stock in Kleenex? Plec talks to THR about the mystery surrounding Damon and Bonnie, Elena’s devastation and why she thinks season six is a new beginning.īetween the heart-wrenching finales of The Originals and The Vampire Diaries, it’s been such a brutal week for viewers of both. STORY: ‘Vampire Diaries’ Finale Recap: Death Comes Knocking “Our heroes who have splintered off need to find their way back to each other emotionally and geographically as they fight to restore order to their home so they can actually return and not be scattered for good.” “We’re trying to take the show away from the massive genre extravaganza where each season we try to top each other with the bigger, bad, more exciting mythologies and boil it back down to the beginning, which is tension, suspense, romance, psychological horror, simple horror, vampires living in secret, people discovering their secret and coming after them,” Plec promises. Among those joining the fray will be the welcomed return of Matt Davis (Alaric) and Michael Malarkey (Enzo), both back as series regulars. The new season will put the focus back on the characters and their often complicated internal and psychological conflicts. That’s what we’re going to do,” executive producer Julie Plec tells The Hollywood Reporter. The theme of the season is everybody gets to start over. “The way we look at it, season six is a beautiful and organic reset. PHOTOS: Broadcast TV’s Returning Shows 2014-15 A substantial amount of time will have passed, and the gang may not be in one place - at least not initially. With Mystic Falls still cloaked under the “no-magic” spell and Damon and Bonnie dead, The CW drama won’t look the same when the new season kicks up again in the fall. The Vampire Diaries is heading for a “reset.”
