Whoa. WHOA. Who wants The Originals? According to THR, Julie Plec is working on a Vampire Diaries spinoff starring Joseph Morgan and Phoebe Tonkin. The idea will be set up in the April 25th episode:
In the Vampire Diaries episode slated to air April 25, Klaus returns to the supernatural melting pot that is the French Quarter of New Orleans, a town he helped build centuries ago, and is reunited with his diabolical former protege Marcel. The Secret Circle’s Phoebe Tonkin, who joined Vampire Diaries this season in a pivotal recurring role, will also star.
Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo will also serve as executive producers. Reminder: The spinoff is not a sure thing, but even the fact that it’s in the works is a big deal! Thoughts? Do you want to watch The Originals?

It’s going to be a busy week, so here’s the next batch of interviews for your enjoyment. First up, Julie Plec previews Season 4′s return over at The Hollywood Reporter.
THR: Now that Elena’s exploring her new state of being as a vampire, will this force her to open her mind up?
Plec: Elena becoming a vampire, in a way, is an awakening of a person who is about to go through a lot of changes – some for the better and some for the worse, some for the darker and some for the lighter. In all that, she is going to evolve as a person and her relationships are going to evolve accordingly. I can’t say much beyond that other than that it’s a journey for her of an adolescent growing up to a really tragic adulthood. We change a lot in those years and we change what we want out of life; it’s a constant evolution.
TV Guide sits down with Nina Dobrev to talk vampire!Elena, Stefan and Damon, and Season 4 surprises.
Over at Entertainment Weekly, Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder talk about vampire sex. And that’s all we need to say, right?
Zach Roerig chats with MTV’s Hollywood Crush about the State of the Donovan in Season 4 and how last season’s events will affect Matt’s relationship with Elena. (Also, book fans, there’s a nice spoilery gimme in that article that might interest you.)
“Damon definitely blames Matt and doesn’t think that Matt deserves to live,” Zach explained. “Of course Damon, being the rage-filled-fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants kind of guy, comes at Matt. But thankfully Elena is there to defend him.
“Both Salvatore brothers make it clear to Matt that he needs to earn his survival,” he added.
And, finally, the Associated Press sat down with Daniel Gillies to talk Elijah, Elena, and Season 4.

Looks like the CW is getting a tagline makeover! The Hollywood Reporter has the details on the new marketing campaign. Shoutout to Carrie Raisler of the AV Club for the heads up on this one.
The campaign, which plays on apt descriptors like “provocative” and “seductive” in association with CW series, will replace the net’s years-old taglines: TV to “talk about,” “blog about” and “tweet about.” “Three years ago, TV to talk about was very emblematic of where we were,” Haskins says, noting that The CW, geared toward 18- to 34-year-olds, was an early adopter of social media, but other networks have since caught up.
Check out the promo video (above) for the new campaign and READ MORE AT THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER.

Ian Somerhalder sat down with The Hollywood Reporter to talk about (spoilers!) the season finale, and more generally about Damon as a character and how he’s evolved over time. Important to note: Ian talks about the last scene that he shot for the finale, which may not have anything to do with the last seen we see in the finale. Don’t freak out, okay?
