Paul Wesley Reveals He Doesn't Miss The Vampire Diaries and Wouldn't Return for Reboot
If a new project in The Vampire Diaries universe ever comes to pass, we can count Paul Wesley out.
Wesley played Stefan Salvatore for eight seasons on the hit CW drama but said he'd "hard pass" any potential comeback.
"I would never do another vampire anything, period, let alone Vampire Diaries," the actor explained to InStyle earlier this month.
"I don't really miss anything about playing him, and I don't mean that in a [negative way]," he added.
"Eight years is a long time, and I'm so glad to put that to rest. Eight seasons."
If you watch The Vampire Diaries online, you know that Wesley's arc as Stefan Salvatore culminated with the character perishing to save the town.
The series' final scene showed Stefan reuniting with his brother, Damon (Ian Somerhalder), in the afterlife.
Wesley was fond of his time on the show, but after eight seasons, he isn't interested in a comeback.
