Spoiler Time: The Vampire Diaries/The Originals and Supernatural

Monday, April 15th, 2013

The Vampire Diaries: We’re getting closer to the highly anticipated “Originals” episode. If the new spin-off gets picked up, Rebekah will be joining her brothers in New Orleans — but her role in the April 25 episode is minimal. As you may know, Claire Holt was the last of the Originals to sign on for the new series, and the script had already been completed when she inked her deal. But don’t worry, Rebekah fans — if “The Originals” gets picked up (and we’re hearing VERY good things from our CW sources), there are big, big plans in place for her time in New Orleans.

Supernatural: Remember Sam’s love interest, Sarah Blake from Season 1? If not, this should help refresh your memory. We’ve confirmed that Taylor Cole is indeed returning to reprise her role. Look for Sarah to reunite with Sam and Dean in episode 822.
