What has changed for Damon?
I think that what’s sort of thrown Damon for a loop is what he said at the end of the finale, “I came to this town wanting to destroy it and everything in it, and now I find myself wanted to protect it." How the hell does that happen? I think that it happens because when you forge relationships with people you raise stakes, you have something to lose. For someone who’s never had anything to lose, it’s throwing him a bit. It’s fun to play, but I think there are a lot of things that are about to pop up that are going to make for some action.
We didn't think it would be possible to surpass season one, but season two is proving us wrong.

I hope so. It’s actually going to get better. We are committed and we understand that we have to make this a better season of television than last year. Katherine’s back, and there are a couple of other unknown forces that are lurking about. I think this season's dynamic is that it’s not quite as much fun for Damon to be honest with you [laughs]. I don’t get to wreak havoc and destroy shit, but it’s a little more layered and dynamic. I think the cool thing is that Stefan and Damon are going to have to bind together and set their differences aside and fight for what they love, which is the town and Elena.
Excellent interview. Completely adore Ian Somerhalder, he is truly a man to love and admire. The work he does for animal rescue and the enviroment comes from his heart and with such passion. The character of Damon Salvatore could never be portrayed by anyone but Ian. He has taken that character and made it his own. Truly a brilliant actor.
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to this week's episode. Hopefully, with the flashbacks we will learn more about Katherine and what all took place in 1864. I am not sure what elements are coming to Mystic Falls, but it sounds scary. Thank Goodness the town and Elena have Damon and Stefan to protect him. After watching "Bad Moon Rising", I know Damon would sacrafice himself for Elena. I just hope it never comes to that. Also, writers & producers, please send Damon & Elena down a path that will bring them back together as friends and much much more......
