"The Vampire Diaries" went on a casting spree and have added Justice Leak, Jaiden Kaine, Tim Kang and Todd Lasance in recurring roles on the new season.
Leak (Powers) will play Malcolm the clean-cut eldest heretic who doesn’t like being told no. Within his small family he’s a golden child. But when he’s alone, he has the sneering, aloof air of somebody who’s been alive a very long time—with no fear of death.
Leak will first appear in the premiere.
Kaine (Zoo) will play Beau, a scary, solemn and dangerous man. He’s the strong, silent type, but not by choice—his vocal cords have been slashed, his throat forever scarred. But what he lacks in words, he makes up for in presence, with supernatural powers to match and an unbreakable loyalty to his heretic family.
Kaine will first appear in the premiere.
Kang (The Mentalist) will play Oscar, a laid back stoner who’s been living the high life off the grids for months, hiding a surprising connection to the Salvatores. But Oscar’s Zen lifestyle comes to a screeching halt when supernatural intervention turns him into a feral killer.
Kang first appears in Episode 3.
Lasance (Home and Away) will play Julian, a feared and storied immortal with a reputation for excelling in earthly pleasures. Julian is pure charisma or pure creep, depending on whom you ask. The one thing he fears is anonymity, an unlikely outcome given that he’s perpetually on the run, leaving chaos in his wake, and attracting even more dangerous followers.
Lasance first appears in Episode 3.
These new castings come in addition to Elizabeth Blackmore, Scarlett Byrne and Teressa Liane.
