Let’s Check in with the TVD Cast to Find Out What Life’s Like After Mystic Falls

With the 2017-18 Fall season approaching quickly, many favorite shows are returning for a brand new season and new series are set to make an anticipated debut. But for the first time in eight years, TVD fans are left with a feeling of emptiness that our beloved series filled since 2009. While there may not be any new cast promotional posters, character portraits, season trailer or even behind the scenes sneak peeks, we, the TVD fandom is still very much alive and supports the cast of our beloved supernatural series. So if you’re wondering or just need a little something to fill the void, here’s how life looks for the cast after Mystic Falls.

It’s rumored Nina is to reprise her role as Becky in the next installment of Xander Cage after the most recent film’s success. If that wasn’t enough, Nina also filmed a documentary with Ocean Ramsey to raise awareness on the importance of shark protection. And she’s now an ambassador for Reebok and Les Mills! Go Neens!

She completed filming Where’s the Money, but no release date has been announced yet. Currently, Kat is filming NETFLIX movie, How it Ends, alongside Theo James and Forest Whitaker.

Zach Roerig RVs Across the Country with His Daughter

Mystic Falls’ Matty Blue Eyes is portrayed by the handsome Zach Roerig. He and daughter, Fiona, took a cross-country road-trip in an RV with TVD’s Nathalie Kelley aka Sybil this summer.

Very passionate about his music, over the Spring while Michael appeared at fan conventions in Europe, he also performed music gigs in the various cities.

Fingers Crossed We’ll See Matt Davis in The Originals!

Matt Davis portrayed everyone’s favorite history teacher and vampire hunter, Alaric, who unwillingly became a vampire that came back from the Other Side only to be turned back into a human again, occult studies professor, father, Armory director and co-founder of the Salvatore Boarding House for Children. We can only hope he will reprise the role of Alaric for an appearance or two in season five of The Originals. Afterall, Klaus’ daughter does attend the Salvatore school, which he co-owns and runs. Fingers crossed. Matt also appears at fan conventions alongside many of the other cast members of TVD and The Originals.
