StarryMag has added a conversation with Michael Trevino to their collection of Vampire Diaries cast interviews. He talks about the differences between working/living in Atlanta versus his native Los Angeles, the inspiration and challenges behind playing Tyler Lockwood, Tyler’s relationship with his parents, shooting nights, and why he thinks The Vampire Diaries is so popular. (He also pleads the fifth. You’ll have to read the interview to find out why.)

Q. What do you think it is about the show “The Vampire Diaries” that continues to garner so many viewers?

A. It’s that we’re on the CW network, but we’re still very dark and we do have this Sci-Fi element and we live in Mystic Falls that has this crazy mythology about the town, but also these characters are rooted very deeply, they are real characters. Even though we have some that might be vampires and some that are witches, they don’t act like vampires or witches to a certain extent. They are still just regular people that have these dark secrets or they’re kind of just getting to know their character. I think that fans gravitate towards that, they like to identify with each one of us in some way or another, and that’s what brings them in.
