So, we don’t have a new episode of The Originals tonight, which is unfortunate. But, we do have a little more detail about what’s ahead in the final episodes – especially concerning Hope and Klaus.
Danielle Rose Russell opened up in a new interview about how Hope’s life and relationship with Klaus is going to change for the remainder of the season.
“I think that’s something that the fans are going to enjoy a lot, this relationship,” she shared with TV Guide. “She gets to explore with her dad now without limits anymore.”
Danielle continues, “They’re kind of getting to know each other still. They haven’t been in each other’s lives very often and Hope really needs her dad. So, they’re kind of getting to know that dynamic and know each other, but it’s really sweet, the dynamic between Hope and Klaus.”
“It ends up being very family-oriented, the show, kind of towards the last… four episodes that we have left,” she notes. “The dynamic between Hope and Klaus being explored in these next couple episodes I think will really bring a lot of warmth to peoples’ hearts.”
“She’s definitely in the anger stage right now,” the actress shared with TV Guide. “Her anger obviously manifests itself in very explosive ways.”
And Elijah is in direct view of those explosive ways.
Danielle continues, “When she sees Elijah for the first time, really this entire season, she does end up taking out a lot of how she’s dealing with herself, with her mom and with him too. He didn’t mean to really kill her, but he ultimately ended up being kind of the nail in the coffin.”
“The scene itself is definitely emotional. There’s a lot of anger, there’s a lot of hurt, there’s a lot of betrayal and sadness, on both parts — at each other and within themselves,” she says. “And you see that in the preview, Hope kind of explodes. But it’s very deep-rooted emotion.”
The Originals airs TONIGHT, June 20th @ 9PM ET/PT on The CW.
Fans are still trying to deal with Hayley’s death on The Originals, when showrunner Julie Plec dropped another big bombshell on us all – there are more deaths coming.
Just after this week’s episode, which featured a lot of good flashbacks with Hayley, she revealed that there are more waiting for us in the back half of the season.
“After tonight, there are five episodes of #TheOriginals left before the end of its run,” Julie shared. “There are about as many significant deaths coming.”
She adds, “I know you’re mourning, and it’s going to be hard, but there is some real beauty, love and peace to come too. Buckle up.”
Sorry, not ready for this.
The Originals is back next week with another new episode on The CW.
After tonight, there are five episodes of #TheOriginals left before the end of it's run. There are about as many significant deaths coming. I know you're mourning, and it's going to be hard, but there is some real beauty, love and peace to come too. Buckle up.
Candice King has opened up about what fans can expect from the Klaroline pairing in the final episodes of The Originals.
While fans already know that the ending scene features Klaus and Caroline in New Orleans, the 31-year-old actress dished a bit more.
“I never understood it, but I love that there’s such a dedication to this Caroline and Klaus love story,” she shared with US Weekly. “It just was a natural thing, knowing that The Originals was coming to an end, to really give the fans what they wanted.”
“I think they deserved to see an element of that chapter coming to a close.”
But will fans love their ending?
“I don’t know if everyone will be satisfied, but I think the majority will be pretty happy with the series finale,” Candice teases.
While were not looking forward to the actual end of the series, we are looking forward to seeing what happens with this couple.
You might be a huge Klaroline shipper and love Haylijah to pieces, but you still have to stop and admit that Klaus’ relationship with Hayley on The Originals had turned into one of the sweetest on television.
During the series last night, after fighting with Hope, Klaus headed to the bayou to carve Hayley’s name into THE tree and while there, gave us all the feels to the point of us crying our eyes out over it.
Klaus admits that while he should’ve been there for her and Hope, he was scared “of this very moment.”
He also confesses his own hopes for Hope, he wants her to live and grow to be “as strong and as beautiful a woman as her mother.”
“I don’t know what to do, and I really wish that you were here to tell me…little wolf.”
Hayley may be popping up in the future on The Originals, despite tonight’s episode being her funeral.
Phoebe Tonkin shared with TV Guide that there’s more to come with her character, especially when it involves Hope.
“Without giving too much away, my final scene [of filming] was with my daughter Hope,” she confirms. “Hayley’s journey throughout all five seasons was to protect her child, and it was nice to wrap up the show that way too.”
Elsewhere in the episode, “God’s Gonna Trouble the Water”, Ivy (Shiva Kalaiselvan) reveals some startling news to Klaus (Joseph Morgan) about the dark magic that’s been keeping him away from his family; and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) turns to some unexpected allies to save Antoinette’s life.
Phoebe Tonkin has opened up about Hayley’s death on The Originals and how she really felt saying goodbye.
The 28-year-old actress spoke to EW in a post-episode interview, which showed Hayley sacrificing herself for her daughter Hope.
“Every season we prepare to say goodbye for good as we never know if we will come back for another season or not till very last minute, but knowing this season would be [the end], it definitely made it easier to plan wrap gifts and say proper goodbyes to my buddies who I’ve spent 5 years with,” Phoebe shared about bidding her character.
That’s not to say that this wasn’t an easy thing to film, either.
She added, “My last scene sadly was at one in the morning, and the core cast weren’t there, nor were some of the main crew members as there were two units shooting that day.”
Phoebe adds, “I basically ran around the studio yelling anyone’s name so I could give as many tearful hugs and goodbyes before I left the studio for the last time.”
