"The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 may have just vowed to reunite the entire Gilbert family. Following Nina Dobrev's confirmed return as Elena Gilbert, her onscreen brother, Steven R McQueen, is next.
On his Instagram account, the actor shared a selfie in front of a medical transport in Mystic Fall. McQueen, 28, also said that he is saying to some old friends. So why else would he be on the set of the hit The CW series if not to reunite with Dobrev and the rest of the cast members?
McQueen's Jeremy was last seen in "The Vampire Diaries" at that time when he said goodbye to Elena in Season 6, episode 14. After the episode aired, executive producer Julie Plec told Variety that the actor will no longer return as a series regular.
In 2015, Plec said that she got emotional filming McQueen's goodbye scene because it made her feel that with every actor leaving, the closer they are to wrapping up "The Vampire Diaries" for good. "Every goodbye actually hurts a little bit. I have become so close to these people. You do not spend much time with people and not fall in love with them," she said.
Meanwhile, Dobrev also tweeted a photo of herself with "The Vampire Diaries" alums David Anders and Kayla Ewell. In the series, Anders played the role of Elena and Jeremy's dad, John. Ewell played the role of Vicki Donovan or Matt's (Zach Roerig) sister. Anders also announced his return to Atlanta via his Twitter account. Atlanta is where the set of "The Vampire Diaries" is located.
Even though Anders and Ewell never deliberately announced their return to "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8, it is very possible because Plec wants to bring back all the old characters for the finale.
"The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 airs Fridays at 8 p.m. EST on The CW.
