Matt Davis Says Alaric Saltzman Is Similar to Dumbledore on 'Legacies'

Matt Davis is dishing on Alaric’s role as headmaster in Legacies.

While attending New York Comic-Con last weekend, the 40-year-old actor opened up a little more about what to expect his for his character’s new role.

“He’s taking on a new set of responsibilities. He genuinely is coming from a place of love,” he said, via TV Guide. “He’s somewhere between Professor X and Dumbledore.”

EP Julie Plec also dished that even though Sheriff Donovan and Alaric work together, Donovan isn’t afraid to put his foot down. “It puts him and Alaric in a good place for some tension,” she said.
