Vampires, werewolves and Logan Echolls, oh my!
In an interview with =http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/julie-plec-vampire-diaries-originals-817736>The Hollywood Reporter, The Originals show-runner Julie Plec confirmed news Jason Dorhing is set to appear on the third season of the hit Vampire Diaries spin-off.
“I only knew Jason Dohring because Kevin [Williamson] loved him so much on Moonlight," Plec said. "And then I realized, he's Logan that everyone talks about from Veronica Mars. I feel like I'm very lucky to have the person that so many people fell in love with in the past decade."
Plec also revealed details about Dorhing’s character. “Jason's character is decidedly human. It's a nice breath of fresh air. He plays a detective. There is a crime that happens in the first episode, and he comes in to investigate it. He's working closely with some of our characters. The question is, how much does he know or not know about what's going on in the supernatural world? And what's going to happen to him as a result of digging too deep?"
Dorhing recently reprised his role as Logan Echolls in the Veronica Mars movie, and on the web series, Play It Again, Dick.
The Originals returns to the CW on Oct. 8.
