When last we saw Elena Gilbert she was doing a Rip Van Winkle while her BFF Bonnie lived her life, but now with the 8th and final season of The Vampire Diaries looming on the horizon, she may be waking up. Nina Dobrev is currently in talks with The Suits at The CW discussing a possible return of everyone’s favorite human – turned vampire – turned human.
Rumors abound on the net about just how this return might be done. Will Nina be playing Elena… or Katherine? Or will she be the Big Bad for this final season of the show? And, if it’s Elena climbing out of that coffin, what will it mean for Bonnie (Kat Graham)?
I love Bonnie Badass! She’s my favorite female character on the show. Always has been. Go ahead and throw those stones if ya want, but I was never a big fan of Elena’s. I like to see strong female characters and Elena always needed rescuing. I like to see those self-saving princesses, thank you very much. Those are the heroines that I can relate to… since I am one. So, I’m hoping that if it’s Elena waking up, it doesn’t mean that Bonnie has to die to accomplish it.
Since leaving the show at the end of SN6, Dobrev has moved successfully to the big screen. Two movies are currently in post production…. Crash Pad and the new Vin Diesel movie, xXx: Return of Xander Cage, and she’s currently filming the remake of the 1990 movie Flatliners. So, the question might be… Does she have time to come back to the show that made her famous?
Would you like to see Dobrev return to the show? If so, how would you like it to happen? Should she be Elena, Katherine, or the Big Bad? And, how would you like to see the show end? Tell us in the comments below.
