Although The Vampire Diaries is famous for
bringing back its deceased characters, many
fans are taking Kol’s (Nathaniel Buzolic)
death particularly hard. While the rest of
his remaining undead siblings are headed
for a spin-off, The Originals , Kol remains six
feet under.
The shows’ executive producer, Julie Plec, is
more than aware that fans are grieving for
Kol, but she explained the reason she won’t
bend to their demands that he return to one
of the shows in a recent tweet.
After a user on the social networking site
told her, “It's not good going against the
fans wish for Kol to live. It could give you a
bad reputation as a writer,” Julie decided to
respond.
Her entire lengthy post is below, but here’s
a snippet: “Storytelling is not a democracy
and it never will be. I love and admire the
passion of the Kol fan base, but no petition,
or trending topic, or ongoing twitter assault
on my mentions is going to make us do
something we don't believe is right or
necessary for the show right now.”
But that doesn’t mean she’s shut the door
on Kol for good. Julie wrote, “Maybe one
day you'll see Kol again when the story is
right. Maybe not. I hope you'll keep
watching anyway.” Oh, and also, please
stop sending her mean tweets.
In a recent interview with Dubrovnik
Today, Nathaniel noted that there’s a
possibility he’ll show up on The Originals.
When asked what he’s up to next, the actor
said, “Although my character has sadly
passed away, there’s gonna be lots of
opportunities for flashbacks because The
Originals is such a great story. It sort of goes
into the world of how these vampires
became who they were and why people
were so scared of this Original family.”
Let’s just hope the stars — and the story
and Nathaniel’s schedule — align, so we can
have more Kol in our lives one day.

Julie Plec’s full TwitLonger post:
I recently received this tweet. Not trying to
be mean, but there is so much wrong with
this sentence:
@julieplec: “It's not good going against the
fans wish for Kol to live. It could give you a
bad reputation as a writer.”
Let me elaborate: Storytelling is not a
democracy and it never will be. I love and
admire the passion of the Kol fan base, but
no petition, or trending topic, or ongoing
twitter assault on my mentions is going to
make us do something we don't believe is
right or necessary for the show right now.
Some of you have gotten a bit meanly
personal. Others have shown nothing but
grace. And your enthusiasm means the
world to all of us. But if you want a choose-
your-own adventure, go to the library.
Otherwise, find it in your hearts to trust
that we love the story we're telling and are
going to keep giving 1000% of our creative
souls to it --- even when it makes a few
people unhappy. Maybe one day you'll see
Kol again when the story is right. Maybe
not. I hope you'll keep watching anyway.
