PUBLISHED JUL 23, 2018

As 'The Originals' is coming to an end, CW is paving the way for another 'Vampire Diaries' spin-off - 'Legacies'. The series will follow the lives of the younger generation of supernatural beings. Speaking at the recent Comic-Con panel, Danielle Rose Russell, who is playing the central character of the show Hope Mikaelson revealed: "There’s a lot of history that’s infused, But it’s a complete show on its own." The trailer that was screened over the weekend at the event showed striking similarities between the upcoming show and the original vampire series that inspired the two spinoffs.  The plot follows Hope post the events of 'The Originals' finale. It starts two years later, as she adjusts to life at The Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted.
