《吸血鬼日记》最后一季最大的噱头，可能就是该剧原主演妮娜·杜波夫的回归了。在谈及妮娜是否会出演这部即将回归的由朱莉·普莱柯编剧、执行运作的魔幻偶像剧第八季也是最后一季时，CW总裁马克·佩德维兹在周四的TCA这样说道：“这事还没定，我们希望她能回归——她非常棒，对这部剧的火爆也是功不可没的。”

　　听说商谈很困难，不过没关系。马克提到，“如果这事泡汤了，朱莉也会为该剧粉丝们准备一个超棒的大结局。”

　　马克还谈了如何商讨决定，结束华纳兄弟制作的《吸血鬼日记》。 “我、(华纳兄弟总裁)彼得·罗斯以及朱莉，达成共识——现在是时候结束这部电视剧了，其实朱莉在我和彼得之前就做出了这个决定。”

　　“The Vampire Diaries” final chapter may feature the series’ original lead Nina Dobrev. “There are discussions,” the CW president Mark Pedowitz said at TCA Thursday about Dobrev appearing on the upcoming eight and final season of the supernatural series, created/executive produced and run by Julie Plec. “We would love to have her — she was great and integral to the show’s success.”

　　I hear talks have been difficult. Pedowitz alluded to that, noting, “Should it not work out, Julie has a great series finale planned for the fans.”

　　Pedowitz also talked about how the decision was made to end The Vampire Diaries,produced by Warner Bros. TV. “(WBTV president) Peter Roth, Julie and I, we collective came to the same place — actually Julie got there before Peter and I did — that this was the right time to end the series.”
