Having Paul and Ian together in this would have made me watch the show, even if it sucked, which thankfully, it doesn't. Also a show Kevin Williamson has to have promise.

Ian is such a cool guy all the way around, and has been since the Young American days. I quit watching Lost for more than a year when they killed Boone! Paul Wesley played one of my favorite characters of all time in the Fallen movies. I've been a fan of those books for awhile, and have gotten to know the author, who I consider a really good friend through MediaBlvd, and Paul was great in that role. So I was actually really surprised and happy to hear that they were cast as brothers in this thing.

It sure was a pleasant surprise to see Steve McQueen's grandson in the cast. He's a real cutie and looks a lot like his grandfather.

Wow, what a legacy, no pressure there .

I kept thinking he reminds me of someone but couldn't quite place it until I rewatched the pilot eppy. I think he looks a bit like a young(er) Hayden Christensen, don't you think?

Ain't that the truth, Aurorstarr!

MajaBee, you're right! He does look like a young Hayden Christensen.

Arielle Kebbel will join the cast of tVD as "Lexi" Stefan's BFF, and Jasmine Guy will play Bonnie's grandmother.

Matt Davis has been cast as Alaric Saltzman.

I don't think she was mentioned here yet:

It's a small small world. Bianca Lawson used to be a vampire slayer on Buffy and she was also part of the cast of Fearless.



She was in Bonnie's vision/dream at the end of the last eppy.

Thanks MajaBee

Very cool about Gina Torres. Do we know when her episdoe will be?

Loved the list. Glad both of them are on it but Spike is the vampire of all vampires!
