[News] ‘The Vampire Diaries’ Star Nina Dobrev Set to Take Part in 24 Hour Plays on Broadway

The Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev is among the actors who will be putting their ability to learn lines in a hurry to the test after signing on to take part in The 24 Hour Plays on Broadway challenge. They will have to come up with six original short plays over the course of 24 hours — which is a very short time! 
To get a feeling of how much time these artists have, we'll break it down for you.
On November 16th, the playwrights will meet at 10 p.m. and must finish a 10 minute play by 7 a.m. the next morning. Then, the actors will rehearse the plays for the next 12 hours and at 8 p.m. on Nov. 17th, the finished productions will be staged in front of a live audience at the American Airlines Theater!

The 14th annual event will benefit the Urban Arts Partnership, New York’s largest arts education organization.

Elena isn't letting Stefan go that easily.

[News] Nina Dobrev Is in Yet Another Love Triangle in These First Look Photos From The Originals' Crossover!

It's time to meet the original doppelganger!

As we exclusively reported back in September, Nina Dobrev is set to guest star on The Originals, crossing over from The Vampire Diaries to play not Elena, not Katherine, not Amara, but a character fans have yet to meet: Tatia, the woman both Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) fell in love with oh-so-many years ago. Oh, and the original doppelganger!

And we're sharing the exclusive first pictures of Dobrev in action as Tatia, looking like a serious badass (Loving that hair, girl!) and getting super close to both brothers. (Hey, can you blame her?!)

 "What we remember from The Vampire Diaries, for those who watch both shows, is that [Klaus and Elijah] both loved her, so it's a little bit of history repeating itself like with Stefan [Paul Wesley] and Damon [Ian Somerhalder]," creator Julie Plec says of Tatia's highly anticipated debut. "And then Esther [Alice Evans], their mother, killed her so that she could make Klaus not a hybrid. There's lots of secrets and scandal and romance and terrible tragedy attached to her character. We'll get to go back into the past to see how that all played out."

Dobrev is only the second TVD star to appear on The Originals, with Michael Trevino guest staring as Tyler in season one. As for why it was time to stage another crossover, Plec told us, "The character of Tatia is part of their history and is kind of a dangling chad. It's something we brought up a long time ago and never paid off."

 

Taking on a fourth character was "really fun" experience for Dobrev, who described Tatia was the "most pure" of all the Petrova women.

"She's the original and so she kind of feels the most pure, to me, of all the characters ,and unaffected and doesn't have all of this previous history of the doppelgangers preceding her to add pressure," Dobrev said of Tatia. "She was just sort of the dealing with love that went wrong."

When we asked the star to predict what would be trending on Twitter on the night her crossover airs, Dobrev said, "#Tatia, #Awesomesauce and hopefully #NinaCrushedIt." Make it happen, Twitter. Make. It. Happen.

The Originals airs Mondays at 8 p.nm, with Dobrev's episode airing on Monday, Nov. 3, at 8 p.m.

[News] New Details for The Originals’ Vampire Diaries Crossover Have Surfaced

Nina Dobrev heads to The Originals in the Nov. 3 episode as original doppelganger, Tatia, who will be seen in Vikings-era flashbacks. . A character previously mentioned during the 13th episode of The Vampire Diaries season three, "Bringing Out the Dead," she will be interacting with Joseph Morgan's Klaus and Daniel Gillies' Elijah. How did the opportunity to have her on The Originals present itself? As the season was being realized, The Originals writers came up with an arc that almost required Dobrev's presence — and it would have likely been scrapped had the Vampire Diaries star not been able to do it.
”We want to have these crossovers take place from a point of story. What makes the most sense for our story? “There’s no possible way to tell the story if we didn’t get Nina Dobrev,” co-executive producer Michael Narducci told a handful of reporters at a recent screening. “We basically got on our knees and begged her.”
"She was, to her credit, wonderful," added Narducci. "We tell a story that will make you understand [Tatia's] fate, what happened to her, her relationship with both brothers, and why what happened between her and the two brothers is so beautiful and also tragic."
The writers spent significant time making sure Elijah's dinner scene in Vampire Diaries, when Tatia is first referenced (Elijah called her "an exquisite beauty"), remained intact. (Watch that scene below.) "We studied every word of that to make sure we were honoring that and I think we do," Narducci assured.

In fielding obligatory questions about future Originals-Vampire Diaries crossovers, Narducci admitted, "That's a little bit above my pay grade." The likelihood of stories in Mystic Falls and New Orleans converging, specifically in reference to Klaus and Caroline's courtship, seemed slim. "It doesn't feel like there's an easy way to make people drop what they're doing in Mystic Falls and come to New Orleans, and certainly once our story lines get rolling, it's going to be very obvious that it'll be very impossible for our characters to take a vacation and go to Mystic Falls," he explained. "If anything, the last thing [Klaus] would want is to involve someone else in that. There's a lot of dirty family business to deal with first."
As for Dobrev, Tatia represented a contrast to the other doppelgangers (see: Elena, Katherine, Amara) she's played over the years.
"She's the very first doppelganger so she doesn't have the history of all the other doppelgangers behind her. She is the purest of them all, she's the most unaffected, she's the most regular — almost like how Elena was before all this shit happened," the actress tells The Hollywood Reporter, laughing at the thought of what has since transpired on Vampire Diaries. "But it definitely catches up to her as any character on this show affected by all these supernatural beings [are]. It doesn't really go well for her. It's all about love and happiness until everything goes wrong."

The Originals returns Oct. 6 on The CW.

[Interview] 'Vampire Diaries' post-mortem: Nina Dobrev on premiere twist, what's next

In The Vampire Diaries‘ season 6 premiere, Elena was left to grieve the loss of Damon. Only, her coping mechanisms weren’t exactly conventional. And in a final twist, she decided to use Alaric’s return to her advantage by asking the Original vampire to compel her to forget Damon altogether.
Between that and the image of seeing Damon making pancakes (in flannel!), the premiere left a lot of questions unanswered. We got Nina Dobrev’s reaction to the Elena twist, mixed with a few additional answers from executive producer Caroline Dries.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What was your reaction to Elena asking Alaric to compel her to forget Damon?
NINA DOBREV: I thought it was a little sudden, especially because it is the first episode, but then you have to think it’s been four months since he left. But based on the arc that we’ve witnessed and the things that she goes through that we see in this first episode and how difficult that is for her, it’s almost like asking someone to admit you into rehab, you know? To accept and realize that you have a problem and that it needs to stop and this is the only solution. It maybe wouldn’t have been what I would do if it was me, Nina, in that kind of a situation, but for her, that’s almost a testament of how strong and powerful her love is for him that she can’t live without him.

Do you think this is a quick decision she’ll regret, or do you feel like it’s something she’s thought through and will keep pushing for?
I think both. I think it is a little bit of a rash decision that she will regret, but I also think that she has been thinking about it and has decided this is the only solution.

Technically speaking, if Alaric goes through with it, will he erase entire memories or just take Damon out of memories?
Both. [It's] situation by situation. You don’t just say one thing and compel them. It’s going to be a long process to alter every memory that she’s had and every experience that she’s had.

So it’s like weekly therapy sessions with Alaric.
[Laughs] Well I can’t say how they do it but, kind of.
Additional scoop …
-As for Alaric’s reaction to Elena’s question, executive producer Caroline Dries said “That’s a big part of the next episode. Damon is his friend too and so, for her, it’s a hard decision, but for him, it’s also like, ‘I don’t know if I can do this to my friend.’ So that will be the emotional journey in the next episode.”
-Damon and Bonnie’s whereabouts will be revealed in episode two.
-Ivy is sticking around, at least for now. “She opens the door into this world of Stefan’s that we’ve never seen before,” Dries said. “We get to learn what his process is as a vampire of starting over and living a different identity. We’ve only seen him as Stefan Salvatore, high school student turned Elena’s boyfriend. So we get to see Stefan Salvatore, guy who works at a mechanic in Savannah. So that will open us to a new world for a little while.”
-Expect Liv and Tyler’s chemistry to be explored further, a.k.a. their flirtation will become a storyline.
-Jeremy hasn’t hit rock bottom yet.
-The love triangle is still alive, though not in the same way. “I don’t really call it a triangle because Stefan has become more of a soul friend of Elena’s,” Dries said. “So he’s dealing with his own stuff, but those two are still very connected. It’s more of ‘How do we maintain Elena and Damon’s love story while he’s not present?'”
-Mystic Falls will be open to supernatural beings again … eventually.
-Stefan’s boss will be back. “He’s not going to have a storyline or anything, but he just kind of represents like the human element of Stefan’s story,” Dries said. “We will see him in the same kind of situation.”
-Enzo hasn’t given up on Damon. “We’ve really only seen Enzo in the context of Damon. Damon is his best friend. He’s like Damon’s soulmate, and so Damon dying obviously took a toll on Enzo. We saw Stefan kind of having given up, and so Enzo is going to turn out to have had a different reaction to Damon’s death. He’s not going to give up on him. So his point of view on Damon is in direct conflict with Stefan’s.”
-As for Alaric, who’s struggling with what Dries called “an uncomfortable-in-his-own-skin kind of story,” she teased, “There’s drinking in every single scene of every single episode.”

The Vampire Diaries airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on The CW.
