'Legacies': Is Landon a magical doppelganger? Possible answers to burning questions about Hope and the knife thief

Who is Landon Kirby? What's his purpose? Why does the knife call to him and how does Hope fit into this mess? Here are possible answers to these burning questions.

When 'Legacies' premiered in late October this year, fans were pretty skeptic about how great the show would be. It came in with a lot of expectations for sure, after all, it was a spin-off of one of the most loved shows The CW has ever made, 'The Originals'. The show ran for five extremely successful seasons and it wasn't too hard to guess why.

The plot for the predecessor for 'Legacies' had everything going for it - it had plenty of great characters, the story arc was phenomenal and it always found a way to reinvent itself each season. 'Legacies' has, in a lot of ways incorporated the best of 'The Originals' in its debut season. The most prominent one being the two supernatural characters at the center of the show's universe - Hope Mikaelson and Landon Kirby.
