The Vampire Diaries TV SeriesFilmReviewOnline.com discusses the future of The Vampire Diaries with executive producers Kevin Williamson and Julie Plec. They touch on the books vs. the show, a change in the Salvatore brothers’ dynamic, a possible choice for Bonnie, werewolves, staying in Atlanta, and the beauty of special effects.

How much are you finding that you can stick with the books, and how much are you changing things because the show has taken on a life of its own?

Kevin Williamson: The show does take on a life of its own, but I think the book has always inspired us. If you’re a fan of the book, you can look at what we have used and what we haven’t, or what we’ve taken and turned it on its end. For instance, we’re going into this whole thing of this church and the tomb underground and these vampires that have been desiccated and laying in wait for all these years, with Katherine amongst them.

That’s not in the book. However, what is in the book is Katherine. And so the book has always inspired us, but now the show is off and running, and with a bunch of writers sitting in a room we twist and turn everything.

Thanks, @CW_VampDiaries!
