    Vampire Diaries Shocker: Nina Dobrev Is Leaving

    Stefan or Damon?

    VD6_Elena_Gallery_2228raIt seems possible that in the next season of The Vampire Diaries, Elena Gilbert will be without either of them, as Nina Dobrev will be leaving the series. The actress first confirmed the story on her Instagram page, where she released the below statement:

    Dearest TVD Family,

    I’ve just spent the most beautiful weekend on Lake Lanier in Georgia with my own TVD Family, the cast and crew of The Vampire Diaries. I want to be the first to tell you that it wasn’t just a holiday celebration, it was a goodbye party. I always knew I wanted Elena’s story to be a six season adventure, and within those six years I got the journey of a lifetime. I was a human, a vampire, a doppelganger, a crazy immortal, a doppelganger pretending to be human, a human pretending to be a doppelganger. I got kidnapped, killed, resurrected, tortured, cursed, body-snatched, was dead and undead, and there’s still so much more to come before the season finale in May. Elena fell in love not once, but twice, with two epic soulmates, and I myself made some of the best friends I’ll ever know and built an extended family I will love forever.

    There’s more to come before we wrap this up, and I promise you’ll get to hear all about my experiences over the next month as we approach the season finale (I have given an exclusive interview for the June issue of SELF Magazine that I am excited for you to see!), but until then I invite you to hop on the roller coaster ride that is Elena Gilbert’s life and join me as I celebrate her and prepare to say goodbye to her — and to my work family — as I move on to the next chapter of my life. I want to share this goodbye with all of you (this weekend’s pictures were just the beginning). You, the wonderful fandom who gave more love, support and passion than anyone could have ever imagined seven years ago, when a young Degrassi girl from Canada showed up in LA to audition for ‘that Twilight TV show.’ ;-) I love you all. Fasten your seatbelts. If you think you know what’s coming, you don’t.

    Love, Nina

    Nina’s announcement was followed by a statement from TVD Executive Producer and guiding force Julie Plec about her departure.

    “Saying goodbye to Nina is both bittersweet and beautiful. After six-plus years together, the entire cast and crew of The Vampire Diaries has reached a level of closeness that I don’t think any of us ever expected. Nina is excited to spread her wings, get some rest, travel the world and also take it by storm, and we support her a thousand-fold. We will miss Nina and the four hundred characters she played, but we look forward to the insane and exciting challenge of continuing to tell stories of our Salvatore Brothers and our much-loved and gifted ensemble.”

    VD601a_0304bPlec also addressed the recent casting of Michael Trevino (Tyler Lockwood) in a new pilot, and what that means for his role on TVD. Here’s what she said there:

    “Michael has been a beloved member of the Vampire Diaries family since day one.  Even though he’s also going to be out in the world exploring new opportunities, we look forward to finding creative ways to make sure he and his character Tyler Lockwood always remain a part of the show.”

    The Vampire Diaries airs Thursdays at 8PM on The CW. The show has already been renewed for a seventh season.

      Yep, season 6 is Nina’s last. I was shocked by the announcement, but I’m excited about how this gives season 7 a new opportunity for other characters to shine. Leaving the love triangle behind gives them SO many options to be creative – and not be stuck in Mystic Falls.

      I wish Nina well on the next step in her career.
