Nina Dobrev is back for Vampire Diaries Finale
>> Saturday, January 28, 2017
Elena is coming back to Mystic Falls.
Dobrev's return should come as little surprise. When the actress exited the CW drama two seasons ago, the deal included a clause that she could return for the series finale.
CW president Mark Pedowitz and Plec, who is also directing the final episode, have made it clear that Dobrev's return for the vampire drama's final chapter was a must.
In the season six finale, Dobrev's Elena was forced into a deep slumber as the result of a spell that put the life of her longtime friend Bonnie (Kat Graham) in danger. To save Bonnie, Elena sacrificed herself.
The series finale of The Vampire Diaries is set to air Friday, March 10, on The CW.
