Kevin Williamson Talks Vampires and Serial Killers


Collider interviewed Kevin Williamson during the 2012 TCA Winter Press Tour recently. Besides talking about The Vampire Diaries, Williamson also talked about his new series which recently got picked up. Click here to read the complete interview. 

Question: Why did you finally decide that it was the right time to have Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Elena (Nina Dobrev) share a real kiss?

Stefan had to take that turn, so she turned her attention to the one person who’s showing her the love, and she’s tempted by him. Who wouldn’t be? He’s a vampire. He has a power over her, and he’s being really good to her. And, he’s being tormented by it, too. In a weird way, he’s never going to let anything bad happen to his brother.

Question: How difficult of a line is it to walk with what you’re doing with Stefan and how far you can push it before he’s no longer redeemable?

He’s a true tragic hero, in the greatest sense, even more so now then Damon ever was. It is a fine line to walk, and I hope we’re playing it with just enough tragedy that the audience can hold onto him and nurture him, even though he does go down that terrible road. It is a tragic fall.
