Nina Dobrev has a lot of practice not answering direct questions when it comes to The Vampire Diaries, but she does give a few hints about an upcoming scene in this interview from Hollywire. She also gives some props to castmate Kat Graham for her work on The Ripple Effect event, and talks about her own experiences visiting Africa.
Ian Somerhalder was his usual eloquent self at the event, talking about the need for clean water and his own thoughts about working on projects like these.
As well as his favorite scene he’s shot so far this season (hint: it hasn’t aired yet):
Arielle Kebbel also took a few moments to talk on the red carpet, you can watch the video of her talking with Mingle Media TV on YouTube.

Friday Night Bites is a weekly round-up for various tidbits of show and cast/crew news not quite big enough to warrant a blog post, not strictly Vampire Diaries-related, or that somehow just fell through the cracks. Please insert theme song by Explosions in the Sky here and enjoy.
We’re closing this week’s FNB with a special shout out to some of the TVD extras. Actors Joshua Haire, Ashlyn Henson and Justin Greer (aka Jimmy, Mason Lockwood’s unfortunate Floridian pal) have been hard at work on an independent film called All Hallows Evil: Lord Of The Harvest. Check out the teaser trailer below!

Today was Vampire Diaries day at New York Comic Con (we think there might have been other stuff going on, but it pales in comparison to the Vampire Diaries, right?), with Kevin Williamson, Julie Plec, Steven R. McQueen, Katerina Graham, Zach Roerig and Sara Canning in attendance. Moderated by the lovely Carina MacKenzie (@cadlymack on Twitter – give her a follow), the panel was – by all accounts – a blast, with all kinds of intriguing spoilers and factoids being revealed (which you can see further down under the spoiler warning). Carina was also able to confirm with Steven that he doesn’t have a Twitter account. Anyone claiming to be him is a fake. Accept no substitutes.
Carina kindly gave permission for us to share a few of her photos from the event:
More media from NYCC
We’ll be adding links to videos and more pics when they’re uploaded (unfortunately cell service at the panel was poor, so many people weren’t able to tweet comments and pictures at the time). While we wait for that, get a load of the spoilery goodness revealed during the panel and in the press room.
