Will there be an Originals spin-off? Recently, CW boss Mark Pedowitz confirmed there are talks of another series, Deadline reports.
A spin-off of The Vampire Diaries, The Originals follows the Mikaelson family, the world’s first vampires who have returned to reclaim New Orleans. The cast includes Joseph Morgan, Daniel Gillies, Phoebe Tonkin, Charles Michael Davis, Yusuf Gatewood, and Riley Voelkel.
Earlier, we reported that there were possible plans for an Originals spin-off centered around the character Hope. Already, we know the fifth and final season of The Originals will focus on the character as a teenager, which could set up a spin-off about Hope as an adult.
At the recent summer TCA press conference, Pedowitz revealed there have been discussions about a Hope-centered spin-off but nothing’s set in stone:
There’s been many discussions about the character Hope. I’m very interested if she wishes to do it in the The Vampire Diaries universe.”
Nothing has come out of it yet. Julie really wants to get the final season of The Originals done.”
What do you think? Do you watch The Originals? Would you watch a spin-off series?
I’m all in for a spinoff. I love this Universe. Who knows who could drop in with all the characters that have been established there’s so many ways this show could go. I’m super interested. Please GREEN LIGHT The Originals Spinoff!!!
I would watch if MiKlaus was in it.
Yes. I would definitely watch any spin-off of The Originals show about Hope Michaelson.
I love the Originals. It is more gritty than Vampire Diaries (even though I followed every episode of VD) The Originals’ storyline is extremely captivating. So disappointed that it is ending. Hope the rumors ( pun intended) of a spin off are true.
A spinoff would be great. Please do it. I really want originals to be longer than just season 5 which saddening
Oh yes please! A spinoff would be fantastic…I was so upset of the Originals ending…Now their is Hope….
Yes, please!
Screw “Plec” I detest her and a lot of folks in the entertainment industry.
