"The Vampire Diaries" finale is looming, but before it happens, The CW series is going to bring back fan-favorite characters who are already dead. Just this week, Steven R. McQueen, who played Jeremy Gilbert, confirmed his return in the series' finale.
McQueen shared the good news on his Instagram, where he was seen on the set of "The Vampire Diaries" in Atlanta. It is not known how his character will reappear in "The Vampire Diaries" finale after his demise in Season 6. McQueen played Gilbert from 2009 to 2015.
McQueen is not the only cast member, who will be returning for the last season of "The Vampire Diaries." Other stars, including David Anders cast as John Gilbert, Kayla Ewell as Vicki Donovan and Michael Trevino, who plays Tyler Lockwood, are all set to reprise their respective roles.
With this good news, fans of the hit supernatural show are now looking forward to see these characters returning in "The Vampire Diaries" finale. Nina Dobrev, who plays Elena Gilbert, has recently confirmed her appearance for the finale.
Many were dismayed in the last episode "You Made a Choice to Be Good." Enzo (Michael Malarkey) met his tragic death when Stefan (Paul Wesley) ripped his heart out. Although it sent fans to mourn about his demise, there is still reason for them to rejoice because Malarkey confirmed that he will reappear in the series before the series wraps up.
"I've gone in and done a couple bits here and there," Malarkey told TVLine. "It's nice to be able to wrap this thing up the way they've done it, to know this is the end, and to do it justice."
Meanwhile, there are rumors that say that although "The Vampire Diaries" is wrapping up in March, viewers will still have the chance to see "The Vampire Diaries" characters in "The Originals," according to Digital Spy. The last episode of "The Vampire Diaries" finale will air on March 10, and "The Originals" will take its time slot the following week.
There are still a couple of episodes more to go before the series ends, and it seems that there are still more suspense and surprises in store for the fans. The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 episode 12 titled "What Are You?" air on Feb. 10.
