There's a possibility the Nina Dobrev will return to "The Vampire Diaries" but it may not be this season 7.
Wetpaint reported that the show's co-creator, Julie Plec, hopes to have the former "TVD" actress back for the end of the series.
The showrunner revealed to TV Line last month that, "unless something catastrophic happens," and if "TVD" season 7 becomes the last season, then Nina Dobrev will not be back in the series this year.
"I basically committed to Ian [Somerhalder] and Paul [Wesley] that when they're ready to be done, I'll be done," she said.
"They could be ready very soon, or they could really want to stick it out. Right now, that's up to them. I'm with them as long as I feel like I can keep telling stories for them."
Executive producer Caroline Dries previously revealed that they will make sure that the actress returns for the finale only if The CW confirms that "The Vampire Diaries" season 7 will be the last season for the show.
The "TVD" boss did tease fans, though, that there is still a story waiting to be told for Dobrev's character.
"There is still a chapter of [Elena's] story left to be told," Julie Plec admitted. She added that she'll "take [Dobrev] for whatever she's willing to do to tell that story."
Last year, Plec also revealed to EW why they did not end "The Vampire Diaries" with Nina Dobrev's departure. "It didn't feel like it was time to be done," she said.
"It felt like there were so many relationships that were shifting and moving. And as beautiful as the Damon and Elena love story was, allowing them to get a place of being happy together, where do you go with Damon after that? Is he just going to be the happy boyfriend for the next three seasons?"
Meanwhile, according to Australia Network News, Nina Dobrev's return to "The Vampire Diaries" could cause Ian Somerhalder's exit from the show.
