According to Marcos Siega, shooting for episode one of the Vampire Diaries begins in four weeks. From the way those dates stack up, it looks they’ll be heading off to Georgia (where Julie Plec is currently scouting for Elena’s house in Atlanta, if she isn’t lost in the airport) to start filming and then flying back for the panel at San Diego Comic-Con. (Who will be attending the panel is not yet known.) Quite what this means for the rumours that the pilot will be shown at Comic-Con remains to be seen.
Meanwhile, Kevin Williamson is busy staying up late and working on the next episode, even if he is taking breaks to watch True Blood. We’d say he was paying far too much attention to the wrong vampires, but as it’s True Blood, we think we can let it slide. ;) [Um, I watch True Blood, too! -Vee]
On a tangent, we’re still getting a lot of comments on the subject of Elena not being blonde and how that ‘ruins’ the whole plot regarding Katherine. Putting all feelings of disappointment over Elena not being a blonde aside, we just want to say that Nina Dobrev is featured in an old photograph as Katherine in the extended trailer, and will have brown hair and eyes for both roles. The plot still works, they’re just both brunette instead of blonde. Hopefully that fact will help alleviate the worries some people have on the issue.
