The potential THE VAMPIRE DIARIES spinoff, THE ORIGINALS — which would focus on the Original family — has booked another lead: THE VAMPIRE DIARIES’ Daniel Gillies. A Warner Bros. rep confirmed the Deadline report that Gillies (who has played TVD’s Elijah off-and-on since season 2) will be involved with the backdoor pilot.
Gillies joins fellow TVD castmembers Joseph Morgan (Klaus) and Phoebe Tonkin (Hayley), who already are committed to the potential spinoff.
Is there any other TVD cast members you hope make their way over if the spinoff becomes official?

The CW Plans Potential THE VAMPIRE DIARIES Spinoff; Backdoor Pilot to Air in Spring

The CW is looking to expand THE VAMPIRE DIARIES world — a rep for the network confirms that a backdoor pilot is in the works for a TVD spinoff, THE ORIGINALS, which would focus on Joseph Morgan’s Klaus.
According to Deadline, TVD newbie Phoebe Tonkin (Hayley) would also be a part of the spinoff, which would be about Klaus’ return 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 protégé Marcel.”
While spinoffs traditionally make me very wary, I’m curious to see how this backdoor pilot will turn out. As of now, it’s set to air on April 25th on The CW.
What do you think? Would you watch a Klaus-centric show? Or do you hope he stays put on THE VAMPIRE DIARIES?
