Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev appreciates “compelling” Twilight

In a recent interview with Too Fab, Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev says that she certainly knows that Twilight paved the way for the success of Vampire Diaries.

TooFab: People are always drawing comparisons between “Twilight” and “The Vampire Diaries.” What do you think about this?

Dobrev: There are very small similarities and comparisons that can be made between the mythology of “Twilight” and “The Vampire Diaries.” Vampires and werewolves exist in many stories that can draw the same comparisons. However, “The Vampire Diaries,” now in its third season, has taken a life of its own and stands alone at this point.

TooFab: Are you a fan of “Twilight,” can you be one being on “The Vampire Diaries?”

Dobrev: I’m appreciative of “Twilight.” Its success has paved the way for the genre and allowed for our show to even exist. I’ve read the “Twilight” books. The story is compelling and I can see why so many are hooked and in love with the films! I’m also friends with some of the “Twilight” cast, and we vampires are all supportive of each other!
