A few weeks ago, we brought you news that the CW had optioned the rights to “The Vampire Dairies” and were developing the series of best-selling novels as a potential fall series.
Now comes the first news of casting. The grandson of actor Steve McQueen has landed the role of Jeremy. Steven R. McQueen has had roles in “Everwood” and “CSI: Miami.”
“Vampire Diaries” is based on books originally published in 1993 and revolves around a young woman who’s torn between two vampire brothers. The brothers—one good, one evil—are battling for her soul and the souls of her pals, her family and the small town where they live.
The CW has reunited with “Dawson’s Creek” creator Kevin Williamson to executive-produce and write. Julie Plec (“Kyle XY”) is also on board to write and executive-produce.
