Joseph Morgan made his rounds with the news circuit to discuss tonight’s episode and more! Check out what he had to say to THR, E!Online and Zap2It. We will add more interviews to this post as they are posted.
On Klaus and Rebekah’s relationship Via THR:
“Klaus and Rebekah have both been captured. They’re not able to immediately deal with issues that they may have with each other,” Joseph Morgantells The Hollywood Reporter. “But I think the secrets she’s kept from him for a hundred years, when the truth about that comes out, he will certainly be needing some sort of revenge. That will not bode well for their relationship.”
On Upcoming Episode 1.16 “Farewell to Storyville” via E!Online (Spoiler Alert!):
Viewers will really not want to miss episode 16, which is mostly Klaus, Rebekah and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) “trashing it out” when they are trapped in a cemetery together. In fact, Morgan predicts the episode, titled “Farewell to Storyville,” will be a “fan favorite.”
“I love working with both of them, so it was a great experience,” Morgan says. “I feel like it will be a fan favorite. I have no doubt about that because there’s enough action in it and they really play on the family dynamic. It’s just putting the three of us in one place together almost the whole episode. It’s really great.”
On tonight’s “horrific” episode via Zap2It:
The episode is told mainly via flashback to 1919 New Orleans — which mean’s we’ll finally learn the horrible secret Marcel (Charles Michael Davis) and Rebekah (Claire Holt) have been keeping for nearly a century. The episode is gruesome and devastating — and extremely emotionally affecting.
“We’re really pointing our toe as a show slightly more horror-based, and I like that, as a fan of the genre,” Morgan says. “The episode, when I watched it, made me jump a couple of times. It was pretty horrific, psychologically terrifying and beautifully shot as well. There was some terrific photography in it. I think it’s going to be really enjoyable for everyone.”
