He stars in ?Vampire Diaries,? one of the hottest shows on television, and Paul Wesley is geeked that the public is so into vampires.
The CW stud explained that the whole cultural phenomenon is caused by the melding of fantasy with reality.
?What?s great about a vampire is you can incorporate it into real world circumstances, rather than ?Lord of the Rings,? where you?re in ?Lord of the Rings? world. This is this mysterious, dark, dangerous, omniscient being in the world. The character is very much like the rebellious, sexual, iconic figure that throughout the years we?ve always felt this need to get to know. Like the Marlon Brandos.?
Paul also mentioned that he was a bit apprehensive at the outset of the show. ?There was some trepidation of, ?Hmm, this could kind of go in a really cheesy direction and it could be riding the coattails of something.? And then as the show developed it really became an independent piece. And what?s great is I think it was able to use the success of its predecessors to get the initial viewership and then had the quality to have longevity.?
