We’ve got some good Kevin Williamson news and some bad Kevin Williamson news, “Vampire Diaries” fans. You may recall, The CW has a slew of supernatural projects in the works including a potential companion show for “TVD” that showrunner Kevin is supposed to write, as well as a TV show adaptation of “TVD” author L.J. Smith‘s other book series “Secret Circle.” Well, one of those is happening, and the other one isn’t.
According to Deadline, Kevin has come on board “Secret Circle” as executive producer and is working on a pilot script. Unfortunately, that means his “TVD” companion series about paranormal investigators is on hold for now.
Though Kevin’s second-in-command, Julie Plec, isn’t on board for “Secret Circle” at the moment, Deadline seems to think it’s pretty likely she’ll head over in the near future. In our opinion, this is actually better news for “TVD” fans, because while the companion series might take place in the world Damon, Elena and Stefan inhabit, “Secret Circle” comes directly from author L.J. Smith’s hit factory.
The “Secret Circle” series follows 16-year-old Cassie, who moves from California to live with her mom in New Salem and falls in love with a mysterious boy named Adam. But, when she enrolls in high school there, she realizes that she, he and all the other elite students at the school are witches! She befriends their leader, Diana, but soon discovers that Adam and Diana are dating, which leads to a whole bunch of complicated drama.
Are you glad “Secret Circle” is getting adapted, or do you wish we were getting a “Vampire Diaries” companion series instead?
