Ian Somerhalder’s disapproval of ‘The Vampire Diaries’ reboot has left us all feeling a little surprised.
It was in the year 2016 when ‘The Vampire Diaries’ bid us all good-bye. To let the memories of the show live forever in their hearts, the fans have been watching the series again and again. Now, there is a little hope amongst the fans of the show, thinking about the possible renewal of the series for season 9. But, without Ian, will, ‘The Vampire Diaries’ fail to attract the audience’s attention and, worst of all, will the show lose its charm?

- Why doesn’t Ian want ‘The Vampire Diaries’ reboot?
- Will there be season 9?
The reason why Ian Somerhalder doesn’t want season 9
Damon Salvatore is the first name that comes to our mind whenever we think about ‘The Vampire Diaries’. And now with the rumours about season 9, fans can’t help but picturise Ian, playing the role of Damon. But, it looks like our favourite vampire is not very keen on the idea of a revival. In an interview with “Andy Cohen Live”, Ian addressed the rumours about season 9. He said,
“I have not heard anything about a season nine … I mean, like, what would happen? Stefan and Damon … Damon has, like, grey hair and … they have canes?”
When asked about the massive popularity of the show, Ian said, “Listen, it ran a great course and now it’s still living. That’s what’s so amazing. It’s still living”.
We don’t know about you, but a show without Damon is something that we are not very interested in.
Will there be season 9 of ‘The Vampire Diaries’?
Well, as of now, the chances of the revival of the show are pretty scarce. There has been no official announcement made by the creators of the show. And keeping in mind, Ian’s lack of interest, maybe season 8 is the end of the series.

Explaining the ending of ‘The Vampire Diaries’
Many shockers greeted us in the finale episode of ‘The Vampire Diaries’. Katherine comes back to life from hell, but Stefan succumbs to life and sacrifices himself to the hellfire. Damon turns into a human being and marries Elena after Bonnie, with the help of the Bennett witches, wakes Elena up. The show then moves ahead in time, where it is shown that Elena and Bonnie have died because of old age and Damon reunites with Stefan again.
