Paul Wesley, who played Stefan Salvatore on all eight seasons of The CW's The Vampire Diaries, reflects candidly on whether he'd return to the role.
The Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley has shared his candid thoughts about appearing on the long-running series. He starred in all 171 episodes of the CW series, which ran for eight seasons between 2009 and 2017. He played Stefan Salvatore, the younger brother of Ian Somerhalder's Damon Salvatore who falls in love with human girl Elena Gilbert and eventually enters a vicious love triangle between her and Damon.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT [I] would never do another vampire anything, period, let alone Vampire Diaries. [I don’t] really miss anything about playing [Stefan]. [I do appreciate] how dynamic [Stefan was.] Because the show ran for such a long time, in order for it to not become monotonous, every season, he sort of had a different arc. At one point he was pure evil, and he started out as the good guy and then he ended as the good guy. But I liked the challenge of trying to keep the character fresh.
Everything Paul Wesley Has Done Since The Vampire Diaries For the most part, Wesley has made good on his promise to leave Stefan Salvatore behind. After The Vampire Diaries ended in 2017, his only contact with the franchise was directing an episode of the show's second spinoff Legacies in 2019, which allowed him to flex a different creative muscle. Likewise, one of his most prominent follow-up roles was in Tell Me a Story, from Vampire Diaries co-creator Kevin Williamson.
