The 42-year-old actor, who starred as Damon Salvatore, talked about the online chatter on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live.
“I have not heard anything about a season nine,” Ian said. “I mean, what would, you know, like what would happen Stefan and Damon are, you know, Damon has like gray hair and they’re, they have canes like, ‘Oh, I got, gotta feed the baby.’ You know what I mean? No, listen, it ran it, it ran a great course. And now it’s still living. That’s what’s so amazing. It’s still living.”
Ian and his on-screen brother Paul Wesley are still close friends to this day, and even started a business together!
“VWars news Streaming from my Airstream,” Ian captioned the video below. “In these strange and dark times that we find ourselves navigating, I just want to say thank you. Here’s an update on VWars from my silver bullet think pod.”
“VWars is NOT DONE,” he continued. “There is life for Dr. Swann and this incredible story. Please SHARE this and spread the word, not the VIRUS. This was supposed to send last night but I think my internet went out…”

“We love each other. We have wanted to kill each other about 800 times. But that means brothers,†Ian said on The Kelly Clarkson Show. “Not only were we on a television show together for eight years, but now, we’ve started a company together. It’s really special.â€
“The Salvatore boys, the Salvatore brothers have bourbon,†he revealed to host Kelly Clarkson. “It’s going to be a lot of fun.â€
“Early Sunday morning make out sessions in bed,” he captioned them. “I had to literally sleep on my face b/c this little orange dude decided he wanted to sleep on the back of my head. Hence why my face looks like wrinkled prune…”
Ian Somerhalder added, “15 years with this little guy.”

The Vampire Diaries actor and the Twilight star teamed up for some of the episodes of the Netflix series.
“It was really amazing,” Ian told Fox News. “Initially, the producers… wanted her to play my wife, and she said, ‘No, I appreciate that,’ but she wanted to play something that was more unexpected, and she did and crushed it.”
“She’s now this really well-known jewelry designer, and she’s built this incredible sustainable company,” Ian continued. “So to see her go in ultra-prepared… breastfeeding our baby, making sketches on conference calls, building this company, put it all down, walk onto set, deliver these powerful, nuanced performances, give everyone a hug and leave — you’re just like, ‘Whoa, what was that?’”
“She’s really a powerhouse, and we are all grateful as producers that she came and really did us a solid favor,” he added. “It was amazing being able to watch her and be on set with her because we’re so lovey-dovey in life and these characters were sort of at each other a bit. It was an amazing experience. I was also directing. Being able to do that with her and set up the scenes and then rehearse with her and then go back and work on camera angles and, then [she] and I would come back together and shoot the scene, and she would leave set… I owe her 20 years of back massages.”
Nikki Reed plays the ex-wife of Ian Somerhalder’s Luther Swann.
