Tyler is heading to New Orleans to seek revenge on Klaus and Michael Trevino spoke to Zap2It about the first The ‘Vampire Diaries’/ ‘The Originals’ crossover.
“I think Tyler’s agenda is revenge against Klaus, which is kind of a reoccurring theme,” Michael said to Zap2It.
As you might remember Tyler and Hayley were teaching the hybrids how to break the sire bond before Hayley and Klaus killed them for Silas’s ritual.
“With this second act of revenge against Klaus, it’s kind of going on [Klaus’s] territory. Tyler’s leaving ‘The Vampire Diaries’ and going to ‘The Originals.’ He’s going to New Orleans. I think he’s got more information on Klaus that people aren’t aware of, and that includes Hayley to a large extent,” Michael said.
So what does revenge on Klaus mean? Tyler can’t kill him without killing himself, Stefan, Damon, Caroline and Elena.
“Well, maybe Tyler’s on a suicide mission, right? Because if Klaus dies then a lot of people are going to die,” Michael said. “But we’re talking about someone who’s killed his mother, and since the beginning of ‘The Vampire Diaries,’ Tyler’s been surrounded by death, with the death of his father, the death of his uncle, so this is the last straw. What family does he really have left?”
Since the original family left Mystic Falls, they have sort of become the good guys, so does that mean Tyler will be a bad guy in ‘The Originals’?
“You could say that [he’s the villain],” Michael said. “You might see a little bit of Tyler from Season one. He wasn’t really a nice guy, was he? We’ll get rid of the douchey part, because now everybody knows why he’s doing what he’s doing so it’s kind of vindicating it.”
Where does this leave Tyler and Caroline?
“As far as I know, [Caroline and Tyler are] a done deal. Because it’s not going to be easy to take out Klaus and heal that wound with the death of Tyler’s mother so I see that going on for a while. I really don’t know to be honest with you. It’s serious. It’s not a, ‘Let’s take a separation here. Let’s break up for a little bit.'”
Klaus has been in love with Caroline almost since he arrived in Mystic Falls and he makes sure Caroline knows from dresses to drawings and even letting Tyler come home.
“It’s kind of tough. We can only do that love triangle between Klaus and Caroline and Tyler for so long. So I’m glad that with what’s happening now, we’ve kind of finally put an end to that. Whether that’s good or bad for Tyler remains to be seen. But we’re finally going to address that and leave it and hopefully never touch on it again,” Michael said.
Is anyone upset that Tyler and Caroline may be done for good? Is anyone hoping for Caroline and Klaus to get together?
Tomorrow we will get to see what Tyler’s plan is for Klaus. He can’t be truly planning on killing him and if he is it can’t succeed. Since if he succeeded, both shows would be over.
Tyler will be on The Originals Tuesday, November 12 at 8pm ET on the CW.
