The Vampire Diaries Cast: Where Are They Now?

Damon Salvatore smouldered on-screen for eight whole seasons as the morally corrupt do-gooder wrestled with every fibre of his being as he learned what it was like to do the right thing on a regular basis.

The man responsible for making him smoulder, Ian Somerhalder was known for captivating audiences with his performances in Lost and Smallville, but what did he get up to after The Vampire Diaries came to an end?

While the four year period has been relatively quiet in terms of performing, Somerhalder did make a triumphant return to screens (in another vampire drama would you believe?), portraying Dr. Luther Swann in Netflix's comic adaptation V Wars. Unfortunately, it was cancelled after its first season.
