Tune in to an all new episode of Legacies TONIGHT (November 14) at 9pm on The CW!
Chris Wood is returning to Mystic Falls as Kai Parker in the current second season of Legacies, EWconfirms.
The Supergirl actor first played the role in TVD‘s sixth season, and came back in the eighth and final seasons.
“Miss me? 😈,” he wrote on Twitter after the news was announced.
Showrunner Julie Plec has previously said that it was her goal to have him return for the latest spin-off.
“It’s so rude of me and so presumptuous, but I am just going to keep layering in Kai Parker until Chris Wood feels like he’s got no choice but to come back and play in our sandbox,” she told EW. “I would love nothing more than to see that character again. I think he’d drop perfectly into this story line. I’m going to keep my fingers crossed and hope that I can make that work out one of these days.â€
Chris is definitely no stranger to The CW. He’s most recently been on Supergirl alongside his wife Melissa Benoist, The Flash, Containment, and The Carrie Diaries.
In “Since When Do You Speak Japanese?”, when a samurai shows up in Mystic Falls looking for a demon that possesses its victims, Josie (Kaylee Bryant) leads the charge to defend her friends from the demon’s wrath.
Meanwhile, as Landon (Aria Shahghasemi) and Rafael (Peyton Alex Smith) head to Mystic Falls High in hopes of learning more about the mysterious Hope (Danielle Rose Russell), MG (Quincy Fouse) is conflicted by a secret he’s uncovered about Lizzie’s new vampire friend Sebastian.
Finally, just as Alaric (Matthew Davis) lets his guard down around the town’s new sheriff, a confrontation with a demon forces him to reevaluate his priorities.
Legacies airs TONIGHT, November 7th @ 9PM ET/PT on The CW.
“I mean, it’s always flattering to be compared to someone everyone loved in the series and who is a very successful and incredible actor,” Thomas told Seventeen. “I think when I was working for Disney, I kept getting compared to Zac Efron and Troy Bolton and stuff, so that was natural to that.”
“I mean, I try to not let that affect what you’re trying to do for your character,” he continued. “They are completely different characters and he’s also done his fantastically well and you don’t just want to copy that. You want to give the audience something different. Something else that they can either relate to or not relate to. Enjoy or not enjoy. That’s the whole essence of what we do.”
The teams prepare to begin the game in this still from tonight’s all new Legacies!
In “You Remind Me of Someone I Used to Know,” as the Salvatore School prepares for its annual football game against Mystic Falls High, the latest monster to arrive in Mystic Falls sets its eyes on one of the students. Landon (Aria Shahghasemi) and Josie’s (Kaylee Bryant) relationship is put to the test when a player from the opposing team catches his eye.
In a new interview, the 24-year-old actor said their chemistry is much like Chuck and Blair on Gossip Girl.
“I always say, it’s a bit like Marmite, you love it or you hate it, and that’s Sebastian,” he told TV Guide. “I think it can be similar to something like Chuck (Ed Westwick) and Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) in Gossip Girl — that kind of tense friction kind of relationship, but highly entertaining.”
“Sebastian’s initial attraction to Lizzie, that initial spark, does come from a past lover that Sebastian has had,” Thomas added. “So that’s a little bit of his background… I do think it is genuine, and I do also think that Lizzie does remind him of a past lover. She’s very intriguing to him, and he wants to know more about who this girl is.”
Thomas Doherty gives us all the sexy vampire vibes in this still from tonight’s episode of Legacies.
In the new episode, “This Year Will Be Different”, Hope (Danielle Rose Russell) is determined to move forward with her new life alone, and her latest hunt leads her on a collision course with the past she’s been desperately trying to leave behind.
Meanwhile, on their first day back in school, Landon’s (Aria Shahghasemi) newfound status as the popular guy leads to tensions with Josie (Kaylee Bryant). Elsewhere, as MG (Quincy Fouse) contemplates telling Lizzie (Jenny Boyd) how he feels about her, the arrival of a mysterious vampire puts a wrench into his plan.
Finally, as Alaric (Matthew Davis) gets settled into his new role at Mystic Falls High School, the students of the Salvatore School meet their new headmaster, Professor Vardemus (Alexis Denisof).
