The Vampire Diaries Season 6 is just around the corner and Julie Plec is opening up about what is store this year. Plec recently opened up to about the new season villains as well as the return of Matt Davis’ Alaric.
The Vampire Diaries Executive Producer Julie Plec recently spoke to Entertainment Weekly about this season’s big bad:
“There is a villain-esque person in this season that I’m particularly excited about because it does break the mold a little bit of our villains, which seem to be often very redeemable in their own way. And we get to explore the deep, dark minds of a psychopathic personality, so I’m very excited about that.”
Earlier in the year Plec spoke with TV Guide about the return Matt Davis' Alaric:
"All season long when we were talking about destroying the Other Side for good we knew that there were people over there we like to visit again and again. So it was our one final opportunity to either say goodbye to certain people or say hello again to certain people. We just did a random poll: ‘If there was anybody you wanted to see for sure that would devastate you to never be able to see again?’ The two answers were Lexi (Arielle Kebbel) and Alaric so we decided to make one devastating and one hopeful. The thing about Lexi is that she did a beautiful sacrifice for her friend which is really what that character was born to be--that rock for Stefan. Alaric was created to be a guardian to Elena and Jeremy and if there's anybody who needs that emotional support right now it's Elena...Him [returning] is a really beautiful circle back to that dynamic where he's going to be there for her as a friend and as emotional support. But also now he has to come to terms with what it's like to live life as a secret vampire. So she has something to teach him too. The Elena and Alaric friendship is something we're really looking forward to next year and I'm super excited to have Matt back. He's not only a fan favorite, but a cast favorite.”
