TCA: Kevin Williamson States 'Secret Circle' And 'Vampire Diaries' Will not Mix Over

Diane Haithmanis adding to Deadline's coverage of TCA. Based on executive producer Kevin Williamson, there will not be any guest crossover, or story crossover, between your CWs The Vampire Journals and also the network's newseries The Key Circle, making its debut Sept. 15. Despite the fact that both series derive from supernatural book series through the same teen-appeal author, L.J. Cruz, Williamson told a TCA audience today that the effort has been designed to keep your shows separate. The witch mythology of Secret Circle and also the vampire-werewolf-periodic witch mythology of Vampire Journals, he stated, just dont mix. I dont think youll observe that crossover, he stated. That will type of limit us. You want to create our very own story. And it is not nearly the mythology. Secret Circle is shot around Vancouver, B.C. and Williamson was requested whether may possibly not happen to be simpler, financially and physically, to shoot the brand new show on location in or near Atlanta, where Vampire Journals is shot, Williamson stated: I dont want the show to appear like Vampire Journals. (He acknowledged following the session that Vancouver listed out over another locations. It made sense financially, aesthetically. Williamson -- co-executive creating Secret Circles with Andrew Burns (Imaginary Bitches), Leslie Morgenstein (The Vampire Journals, Gossip Girl) and Gina Girolamo -- stated following a panel that dealing with a brand new show won't affect his participation in Vampire Journals as co-showrunner with longtime collaborator Julie Plec. We call one another every evening and cry for 2 hrs and evaluate which would do. Were became a member of in the stylish. He stated he's attempted to speak Plec into presuming creative responsibilities for that new show but to date she's opposed. Williamson -- who made an appearance about the panel with co-executives Girolamo and Burns, in addition to star Britt Robertson along with other cast people -- also stated that the field of miracle gives itself to some slightly lighter tone compared to vampire scene. Its a genuine reaction around the world around them, they're all of a sudden causeing this to be miracle. There's a particular snark to that particular, he stated. Although not too light, a la Sabrina the Teenage Witch: Its very dark, although not very difficult-edge ripping hearts out and slicing people open like Vampire Journals," he stated. Were just challenged in regards to what can ghouls do? Yes, you will see humor and frightening witchy-woo. As produce other CW panelists today, Williamson challenged the idea that either show will probably be just for your network's coveted 18-34 demographic, which would be to state that not everything occur in senior high school corridors. The vampires of the underworld are 164 years of age, he highlights. And things i love (concerning the Secret Circle) is it is multigenerational, its not only a teen show. Its an extremely adult show, and it'sgoing to obtain very adult, extremely fast. Were going more for the reason that direction.
