Kat Graham Says ‘The Door’s Absolutely Closed’ for Her on a Vampire Diaries Reboot

0

The Vampire Diaries was just one chapter in life for Kat Graham, who explained over the weekend why she has no plans to revisit Bonnie Bennett any time soon.

 

“I mean, eight years, you know eight years of my life, I feel like I spent more time as a character than I spent as myself,” she told Entertainment Tonight at iHeartRadio Wango Tango.

“I feel like I gave that show, and hopefully the fans that watch it, eight years of my life and poured so much into it and sacrificed a lot of time with my family, even time doing work with the UN Refugee Agency, doing my activism. So much of that has to get put on hold when you’re on a 22-episode series for eight years,” said Graham, 32.

 

She continued, “So as grateful [as I am] — and I mean grateful, because I grew from that show, I became who I really am in my twenties from that show — for me, yeah, the door is closed.”

For now, Graham is exploring other passions, including her music, activism and future acting roles — such as the five movies she has coming out this year.

“There’s a lot as an artist and as a human being I feel like I have to contribute and I want to contribute to the world,” she said. “I just don’t feel like that’s something that I can really utilize in the strongest way to contribute to the world. I feel like I’ve got more to offer, so yeah, for now, the door’s absolutely closed.”

In 2021, Kat Graham shared a similar sentiment when asked about the possibility of a reunion.

“I feel like I’ve learned my lessons from that show,” she told PEOPLE.  “Eight years, if you can’t get what you need out of a character in eight years… So I don’t think so. I don’t feel it, you know? I’m a soul person. I don’t feel that that’s my path.”
