Ian op events
Ian was de afgelopen weken aanwezig op enkele events, zo bezocht hij twee weken geleden de 2019 Wizard World Philadelphia waar hij o.a. het volgende liet weten na vragen van fans:
– De Post-Productie van ‘V-Wars’ is nog steeds gaande na 8 maanden, de verwachting is dat het nog enkele maanden zal duren voordat de serie op ‘Netflix verschijnt’.
– Hij en Paul waren bitter toen bekend werd dat dat spin-off ‘The Originals’ er kwam, voornamelijk omdat hierdoor vele goede acteur en ook vrienden ‘The Vampire Diaries’ zouden verlaten wat ze erg jammer vonden.
– Als het aan hem ligt zal Damon Salvatore geen verschijning maken in ‘Legacies’

Julie Plec Says the Originals Could Be Headed to Legacies This Season
We have about a million unanswered questions as we prepare to head into Legacies Season 2, but the one most fans of The Originals and The Vampire Diaries are still asking is whether Mystic Falls might get a visit from any of the characters we know and love. According to showrunner Julie Plec, while nothing is actually on the agenda yet, Season 2 might just deliver the right opportunity for such an event to occur.
“I think there’s going to be an opportunity this year to see some of the Originals,” Plec told TV Guide at the ATX Television Festival last month. “I don’t know who and I don’t know when, but the way that Hope’s (Danielle Rose Russell) storyline is shaping up, there’s definitely a link to the family that got left behind … that we will have to address at a certain point. And it would be nice to see a familiar face.”
It sure would be nice to see one of the surviving Original family members show up this season, but that raises the question: Do they even remember Hope? After diving into the Malivore pit, she was erased from the minds and hearts of everyone who knew her, so if we’re being real, a lot of the last 18 years are probably a little confusing for Hope’s aunts and uncle. Like, “Why were we so close with that Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) girl again?”
All joking aside, we’d absolutely love to see Rebekah (Claire Holt) or Kol (Nathaniel Buzolic) turn up to kick Malivore’s butt, and Freya (Riley Voelkel) would certainly be a helpful addition to the mission to get Hope out of whatever inter-dimensional prison she may find herself in this season.
Another friendly face we wouldn’t turn away is, of course, that of Caroline Forbes (Candice King). Now that Lizzie (Jenny Boyd) and Josie (Kaylee Bryant) have found the Ascendant, Caroline’s twin daughters could find themselves in more danger than ever, which could hopefully tempt everyone’s favorite vampire barbie back to her hometown. When we asked Plec whether that’s in the cards this year, she didn’t make any promises, but it seems like it’s always a good possibility.
“The desire to see Caroline Forbes on Legacies remains strong,” Plec said. “The invitation remains open and the welcome would be warm. So honestly, it’s just a matter of finding the right story and the right opportunity for Candice to want to come back and play in the sandbox a little.”
Legacies returns Thursday, Oct. 10 at 9/8c on The CW.

Julie Plec Confirms a New Vampire Is Coming to Legacies Season 2
Brace yourselves, Salvatore School students: It sounds like Mystic Falls is getting a new resident vampire when Legacies’ returns.
Though Hope (Danielle Rose Russell) will be MIA, life will carry for Landon (Aria Shahghasemi), Alaric (Matt Davis), and the rest of the gang, which means school is officially back in session when summer vacation ends. And what’s a new school year without some new students? TV Guide caught up with showrunner Julie Plec at ATX Television Festival in Austin, Texas, and she teased a new character who may be joining the halls of our favorite supernatural boarding school in Season 2.
“We’re really excited about a new character that we’re introducing. We really want to bring in an old, old, old-world vampire,” Plec told TV Guide. “We made the rule for our school that the vampires who go to our school actually need to be teenagers… not hundreds of years [old] because then you get into some creepy math. But we want to introduce a vampire who kind of got desiccated when he was 17 in maybe the 15th century and now wakes up in the 21st century and realizes that all the rules of being a vampire have changed and that he does not fit in into this very modern world.”
So basically a time-traveling vampire?! Hell yes, bust out that welcome wagon, Saltzman twins! Something tells us Legacies and its whimsical nature will not miss an opportunity to poke fun at this kid and his bafflement at modern technology, feminism, and fashion.
Legacies will return on Thursdays this fall on The CW.

‘Legacies’ S2 plot vrijgegeven
The CW heeft het plot voor het aankomende tweede seizoen van ‘Legacies’ vrijgegeven. Vanaf het najaar zal de serie op donderdag te zien zijn op de zender, het is nog niet bekend wanneer het nieuwe seizoen precies begint.
Set in the Salvatore Boarding School for the Young and Gifted, LEGACIES tells the story of the next generation of supernatural beings as they learn what it means to be special in a world that may never understand. Typically a school for vampires like MG (Quincy Fouse), werewolves like Rafael (Peyton Alex Smith) and witches like twins Lizzie (Jenny Boyd) and Josie Saltzman (Kaylee Bryant), the kids and their beloved headmaster Dr. Alaric Saltzman (Matthew Davis) were stunned to come face to face with a series of monsters and creatures they had only ever heard of in myth and lore. A dragon. A gargoyle. The Headless Horseman. The evil behind the real-life resurrection of these formerly fictional beings proved to have a horrifying connection to the school’s newest student, Landon Kirby (Aria Shahghasemi.). This led his first and only love Hope Mikaelson (Danielle Rose Russell), the school’s shining star, to sacrifice her place at the school — and in the world — to protect Landon from a terrible fate. The new season will show us a world without Hope Mikaelson and all the chaos that goes along with it. All the while, Hope will be trying to find her way back to the school she has learned to call home and the friends she has learned to love like family. It will be filled with new monsters and more romantic and emotional surprises than ever. The newest series in THE VAMPIRE DIARIES franchise, LEGACIES is from My So-Called Company and Alloy Entertainment in association with Warner Bros. Television and CBS Television Studios, with executive producers Julie Plec (“The Vampire Diaries,” “The Originals”), Brett Matthews (“The Vampire Diaries”), Leslie Morgenstein (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Pretty Little Liars,” “The Originals”) and Gina Girolamo (“The Originals”).

Paul Wesley talks directing this week’s Roswell, New Mexico and Legacies episodes
Paul Wesley directed his first episode of television in 2014. It was a season 5 episode of The Vampire Diaries, the show in which he starred as the noble Stefan Salvatore for what would go on to be eight seasons. He’d add four more episodes to his director’s resume by the time the show ended in 2017. Since then, his television directing career has included Freeform’s hit series Shadowhunters and with this week, he adds Roswell, New Mexico and Legacies — the latest show in the Vampire Diaries universe — to the list.
EW talked to Wesley about his latest projects and his overall experience as a director.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: How did the experiences of directing Roswell, New Mexico and Legacies compare to each other, but also to your other directing experiences?
PAUL WESLEY: One of the things that I welcomed the most with Legacies was the humor. For years on Vampire Diaries we all wanted to flex our satirical muscles a little bit. I think it’s nice to be able to make fun of not yourself but I suppose of the genre and make it a little more of a wink to the audience. I really enjoyed that aspect of Legacies. And then Roswell is obviously a whole different tone and it’s a completely different set of actors, and it’s New Mexico. I’d never shot in New Mexico. It’s very beautiful; there’s big wide vistas and mountains. It feels almost like a western in a weird way. Those were the two big differentiations between the things that I’ve done already.Do you have a preference between directing something where you’re familiar with the universe or something that’s completely new to you?
I think sometimes being too comfortable is not necessarily a good thing but then at the same time, I completely understand why someone like Cary Fukunaga would want to direct every episode of Maniac for Netflix. Because it’s kind of like one long movie. I think it depends on the show. Obviously if you’re doing six years of a show that’s 22 episodes a year, that’s not sustainable. The same person can’t do it. It’d be great to do something from beginning to end, and I think that is probably the most satisfying because you get to create the world and then you get to complete the world. I do think it’s difficult for directors to come in and step into someone else’s vision, but that’s part of the challenge. It’s a little more mathematical and logic-based, directing television. I mean that in a good way: you need to understand how the puzzle fits together. You need to have the tone, you need to understand what the pacing is like, and then you can add your own individual touches to it I suppose.With Roswell, you’re coming in after a monster of an episode where the Rosa mystery was laid out in full. What are we dealing with in the aftermath?
My episode had less stunts and was more character-based, which I prefer. I’ve certainly done my fair share of stunts and green screens and all kinds of VFX but my episode of Roswell was a little more grounded, which was nice. I also think a big part of this is that it’s a season one show. That’s very important. I was very flattered when [showrunner] Carina [MacKenzie] asked me to direct because that’s a lot of responsibility. It’s a season one show, you need to find your audience, you obviously you want to impress executives and the networks and the studios and I think to give me the reins for an episode, it’s flattering. Because I’m still a fairly new director.What has been your greatest challenge thus far as a director?
When it comes to television, the greatest challenge is time. Sometimes things aren’t working in your favor, whether it’s weather or if it’s an actor needs more time because they can’t find the moment. The biggest challenge is making sure you’re on time. You can’t go over a certain amount of hours and I’ll tell you, I’m super proud of Legacies, everyone loves it, but man there were times when I was like, “I’m not going to be able to finish my day.” I ended up finishing all my days and didn’t go over but it’s not easy when you have six, seven people in a scene, stunts, and fight sequences. Listen, I can shoot anything but in order to make it good you need some time and making something good on a short amount of time, that’s the greatest challenge.Is there a scene or episode you’re most proud of that you’ve directed?
I think the ending of Legacies is very powerful. I really like the way it ends. As far as in general as a director, I’m not so sure. There’s a handful of scenes that I’m really proud of. There’s a few on the Vampire Diaries that I thought were probably some of my favorites. But I can’t quite recall at this point. It’s all blended in into one giant supernatural CW mix-up in my mind. -
Paul Wesley recalls ‘flood of memories’ when he returned to Vampire Diaries set
It’s been almost exactly two years since The Vampire Diaries aired its series finale, which — spoiler alert! — saw the heroic Stefan Salvatore sacrifice himself to save everyone he loved (not to mention the entire town of Mystic Falls). With his final shot of the series, Paul Wesley closed a chapter in his life, one that remains closed to this day. “I definitely closed the chapter of that part of my life in terms of in front of the camera. I can’t imagine entering that world in front of the camera,” Wesley tells EW. But the same can’t be said of his life behind the camera.
Thanks to Legacies, which exists in the same world as The Vampire Diaries, the TVD universe lives on with familiar faces (TVD star Matthew Davis is one of Legacies‘ leads) and familiar places (the Salvatore house is now the Salvatore School). So when Wesley was asked to direct an episode of the Originals spin-off, not only did he return to Atlanta, where they’d shot TVD for eight seasons, but he found himself standing in the Salvatore great room, where he’d filmed many a scene as Stefan (including his last).
“As a director, it was still a new experience for me. I was directing a whole new set of actors. The scripts have a different tone,” Wesley says. “But obviously there’s similarities. We were in the Salvatore great room and that was totally trippy. I was having weird flashbacks. Vampire Diaries ended two years ago, and I felt like it had ended three decades ago and when I stepped in there, all these weird memories started coming back. I was like, ‘Oh my god I remember when I sat here and I did this scene and I remember talking to Ian [Somerhalder] about this.’ Everything came rushing in and then it just passed and I moved on. But for a minute there, I had this flood of memories. It was very unusual.”
As for how the directing experience went, Wesley found comfort in some familiar faces he saw around set. “It was so nice having some old friends there,” Wesley says. “Matt Davis of course, some of the crew, my cinematographer and my A.D. These are guys I worked with very intimately for years and it was so nice to see them again and to hang out, and we really all worked our asses off to try to create something good.”
