Here is an excerpt:
Q. As you mentioned you recently appeared on “The Vampire Diaries” as Kelly Donovan, what made you want to be a part of it and how were you approached to be on it?
A. I have to be honest, a part came up that I had been submitted for and I spoke with Kevin Williamson and Julie Plec on the phone actually, and they decided that that part was too small and they wanted to save me for a different role. They discussed with me at length how they thought the character could go, and of course I was concerned about it being too similar to Julie Cooper, another mother stirring up trouble. Of course we could find similarities, but at the same time, to me they are very different. Ultimately after the end of the arc on “The Vampire Diaries” we still have only scratched the surface of Kelly Donovan, there wasn’t a lot of back story, we don’t know why she’s been gone or where she’s been. It’s been a little bit of a taste, a little bit of a tickle, for the audience probably to have this character blast through town and cause trouble for poor Matt. Hopefully there is room for the character to come back and only be Matt’s mom. We started just at one point but hopefully in other seasons we’ll figure out what really makes this woman tick and what her views are.
