E!Online caught up with Vampire Diaries guest star Courtney Ford at Showtime’s pre-Emmy party last night and she had some interesting things to say about her role as a Duke grad student who helps Alaric, Damon, and Elena sort through Isobel’s supernatural research. But this is Vampire Diaries, so that can’t be all there is, right?
When we asked Courtney whether Vanessa would see any action in the romance department, her reaction revealed that she’s obviously hooking up with someone…but Courtney’s lips are sealed: “I want to tell you so much, but I can’t,” she said, laughing. “They’ll kill me if I reveal too much!”
Let the speculation begin! Ms. Ford makes her first appearance in episode 203, Bad Moon Rising. READ THE ENTIRE INTERVIEW AT E!ONLINE.

EW’s Michael Ausiello has posted the news that the character of Vanessa Monroe in the Vampire Diaries has been cast, and will be played by Dexter’s Courtney Ford.
At Comic-Con last month, exec producer Kevin Williamson hinted that the character may be harboring a secret or two. “She’s not without her own intrigue,” he told me. “It’ll be a nice little part for someone. And it’s a part that could evolve into this massive storyline or we could gut her like a fish.”
We personally hope she doesn’t get gutted like a fish – more kick-ass female characters that survive, please! ;)
