I will not be with some of the other vampire characters not in Mystic Falls. That's set up right from the very beginning. You'll see that relationship deepen and grow and that relationship sets up a critical plot point for the rest of the season.Īlaric can't come back to Mystic Falls, will he be at the college?ĭAVIS: Maybe. I feel like the bulk of my scenes are with Elena. I don't know if fatherly is the correct term but he's definitely a presence in her life. MATT DAVIS: We're gonna start the season a few months from where we left off in Season 5 and I think you'll definitely see the relationship between Alaric right from the get-go. It's time for him to find something for himself. He hasn't had a romance since Caroline and they've come back to a good place with each other. Seeing him have a girl friend is very enjoyable and then seeing him have the hots for somebody-not Elena, someone else-and develop a romance.

One of the fun things that's happened in four months is that he and Elena have actually become buddies.

I think something we're all excited about is seeing Tyler in a new dynamic with somebody. She's gonna have to start over and figure herself out.Ĭan you tease any developing relationships coming up next season? Her mom is still in Mystic Falls, she can't even have lunch with her mom in her own home town. Each of them are lost in a different way. She's feeling displaced from her home and now from her friends. Caroline Forbes has always been the girl with the lists and the spreadsheets, matching nail polish, the perfect dress, and the perfect party. In the beginning it's really just about her trying to pick up the pieces and figure out how she's supposed to be living her life. PLEC: Caroline's got a terrific storyline and I won't spoil anything for the second half of the season but it's gonna be pretty big. What storyline do you have planned for Caroline this season? The threats are gonna come from some surprising places in the beginning and will grow over the course of the season. There's this ever growing sense of dread that somebody out there is not really happy with them and is determined to mess with their world. Where they are, it's not easy to get out of. There's the threat of our supernatural heroes trying to get home to Mystic Falls and of course Damon and Bonnie trying to get home, period. JULIE PLEC: There's multiple threats this season. Question: What will be the new threat this season?
