"Elena is still a very big part of the story. Her body's in danger in the first few episodes, and Damon is doing everything he can to make sure she is safe until she wakes up," he said.

During a separate interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Ian Somerhalder also dished on the possibility of seeing Dobrev return to the series.

"There's still a lot of elements of the show that was. There's still very much the presence of Elena. This is Mystic Falls without her. This is the evolution of the story. There's a lot of great interactions with the brothers," he said.
