Alloy Entertainment had a chance to chat with Charles Michael Davis at the CW’s 2013 upfront presentation in NYC to talk about The Originals including his character, Marcel.

Check it all out here.
Below is an excerpt:

Alloy Entertainment: What was your initial reaction to The Originals making it onto the CW’s Fall 2013 line-up?

Charles Michael Davis: I was pretty confident from the beginning that The Originals was going to be picked up because I watch The Vampire Diaries and think it’s just such an amazing show — but of course you can’t celebrate until you receive confirmation. But we were picked up to series the day right after the [backdoor] pilot aired so I was feeling great. To film a pilot and have it air and then you get a response so soon? I was overjoyed. I really was.

Will we see a lot of Elena and Katherine facing off on The Vampire Diaries next season? —Marie

NATALIE: Maybe not facing off, but perhaps switching off? “One thing we’re looking forward to so much next season is Elena on her own as a vampire and living her new life in college,” executive producer Julie Plec explains. “And to see a vulnerable Katherine, who is able to be hurt and able to be killed and in need of the protection much like the first Elena we met four years ago.” Oh, and get this — she says it’ll be fun.

See what they list here.
Below is a taste:

Crossovers
We’ll miss the Originals now that they’re on their own show — appropriately titled The Originals. But we hope there will be lots of opportunities for Klaus (Joseph Morgan), Elijah (Daniel Gillies), and Rebekah (Claire Holt) will find a reason to drop by Mystic Falls. Or everyone can road trip to New Orleans.

What are you hoping to see on season 5 of The Vampire Diaries?

Wetpaint has some BTS pics of The Originals from their photoshoot. Joseph Morgan, Daniel Gillies, Claire Holt, Phoebe Tonkin, Charles Michael Davis, Daniella Pineda, Leah Pipes and Danielle Campbell are all featured. Check out all the fun pics in the gallery below.

Just Jared Jr caught up with the stars of The Originals at the CW upfronts to get some juicy spoilers on the show.

See what they had to say here.
Below is a taste:

1. Witches’ Revenge:
“Klaus needs [Sophie]. She’s going to start practicing magic, which she hasn’t been able to do for the the longest time and I think I can protect myself. Witches aren’t nearly as powerful as vampires, but they are essential.” – Daniella Pineda

Question: What’s in store for Jeremy next season on The Vampire Diaries, now that he’s back among the living? —Chloe
Ausiello: As EP Julie Plec notes, “Nobody knows the truth” about his resurrection — specifically, that Bonnie essentially sacrificed her life for his. As a result, “There’s going to be some explaining to do and it’s not necessarily going to make his return to his old life very easy.”

Question: Will Claire Holt (Rebekah) appear in any Vampire Diaries episodes next fall? Or is she going straight to The Originals? —Justine
Ausiello: “We do have the ability to use Rebekah on either show in the beginning,” says Plec. ” We will see when we start writing how much of her we’ll see before she heads off to New Orleans.” One scenario has the new season of TVD picking up at the tail end of Rebekah and Matt’s European vacation. “When we get back, we might see [them] still on their trip,” shares Plec, adding, “When Matt gets back to Mystic Falls, his whole world will have changed. I can’t wait to see what comes out of that adventure and how he re-adapts to life at Mystic Grill.”

ET has put together their list of the 10 most promising shows coming this Fall and The Originals is included!
Below is what they had to say. See what other new shows made the list here.

What:
The Vampire Diaries spin-off, focusing on The Original Family — Klaus, Rebekah, Elijah — as they make New Orleans their new home.

Why:
Unlike all the other entries this year, we’ve already seen an episode of The Originals since The CW tested it out with a backdoor pilot episode of TVD. Not only did the familiar faces dazzle in this new setting, but Charles Michael Davis is a star-in-the-making and a ferocious foe for Klaus to tangle with.

When:
Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on The CW.
