Season 3 of The CW’s “The Originals” ended with a massive twist that changed the game forever. After the events of the finale that aired on Friday night, has the supernatural drama found its Season 4’s big baddie?
Michael Narducci, the executive producer of “The Vampire Diaries” spin-off, talked to TV Line about the plans currently being laid out for Season 4. He revealed that Marcel Gerard (Charles Michael Davis) will be more powerful than ever, but it will not be accurate to brand him as a villain just yet.
To recap, the season 3 finale saw the vampire emerging as an undead to the Mikaelson and then wiping out every single member of the Strix. Marcel also gave Elijah (Daniel) and Kol (Nathan Parsons) a “one-of -a-kind kiss.” Narducci believes that his action, after all the betrayal, is justified.
” Marcel is furious that Davina was so callously put to the side in favor of ‘Always and Forever,’ and when he confronted the Mikaelsons about it, they killed him. And if he hadn’t taken that serum, he’d just be dead, so he has a perfectly valid point,” he said.
Narducci comments that there are a lot of “interesting things” to play around with in the future of the show. But the question is, “Is this family permanently destroyed, and is Marcel going to be their enemy forever?”
As for “The Originals” Season 4 return date, iBTimes reported that the show will not return this fall after failing to post better ratings. Instead, the vampire teen drama will go back on air next year with a mid-season premiere.
