The Originals cast chatted it up with E!Online‘s Kristin Dos Santos at SDCC.
“I’ve read the first two scripts and I am just so excited. They both feature elements of flashback. They’re both really on a larger scale,” he teases. “This is a war we’re building toward. The first episode takes place on the same timeline as the pilot, only this time we’re seeing Elijah’s point of view, so we’re seeing all the little bits we didn’t see when the pilot aired. So it’s really very exciting for me. And it has a heart-stopping ending.”
And we hate to be the bearer of bad news, Morgan fans, but the actor tells us he’ll let his equally attractive co-stars bite the shirtless bullet for now. “It’s got to be Charles Michael Davis’ turn! When has Elijah ever been shirtless?” he jokes. “I just did a movie in New Orleans where I was playing an experimental chemist who manufactures illegal drugs and tries them himself so I tried to lose a lot of weight for that, so I don’t think I’m quite CW ready to take my shirt off again. I need to put a little more muscle on, you know?”
