Jason Dohring will first appear in the season three premiere.
The Veronica Mars alum has landed a recurring role on the network's Vampire Diaries spinoff The Originals, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Dohring -- who most famously appeared as Logan Echolls on UPN/The CW's Veronica Mars, and reprised the role in Rob Thomas' 2014 film -- will make his Originals debut in the third season premiere. He'll play Detective Will Kinney, who is described as smart and confident with a very clear sense of right and wrong, who is out to bring the forces of evil to justice. And while Kinney doesn't know exactly what's going on in New Orleans, he has a strong suspicion that something strange is going on beneath the surface of the city.
Dohring's Kinney is one of the new faces to expect in The Originals' third season. Showrunner Michael Narducci recently told THR that season three will find the show exploring the Original siblings' sire lines, and several of those key people the Mikaelson siblings turned will pop up in present day.

YES!!!!!!
ReplyDeletehe should be going to izombie
ReplyDeleteOooh, now there's a reason to get back into "The Originals"!
ReplyDeleteHe's already been a vampire, so human detective sounds good.
ReplyDeleteAHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I loveeeee him!!!! I love him!!! I love him!!!! I loveee Jason so much!!!! Finally some good news for me today!! Ohhh this August turned my whole day upside down! I feel so good now.
ReplyDeleteOh come on! Now I have to watch The Originals. I missed Elijah anyway but damn it.
ReplyDeleteI'm just grateful to see him back on TV. I miss Logan.
Ooh that'd be really cool!
ReplyDeleteJason Dohring back in the vampire world after being on Moonlight!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMoonlight!
ReplyDeleteNow this is what i would call a good casting.
ReplyDeleteI have such a crush on him. I can't wait to see him on my screen again.
ReplyDeleteI don't but he's a good actor.
ReplyDeleteHe's good looking and a good actor. I love his smile. It's adorable.
ReplyDeleteGreat casting news. I have to admit I was close to giving up on the show (as long as a particular male recurring character from Season 2 doesn't become a regular cast member for Season 3 which I won't name because I might jinx myself) I'll definitely continue watching. Wow *dreamy sigh* with Elijah and this new character Will, things will heat up!!! :D
ReplyDeleteI agree 100 % Nirat.
ReplyDeleteGreat choice. Loved him in Ringer and his various cameos all over the networks.
ReplyDeleteWhen I read the title I thought he would be The First Turned but the detective role suits him better.
I would've been awesome if was a vampire again after Moonlight.
ReplyDeleteCan't judge haven't seen him in Moonlight.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. A strong name that will appeal to the fanbase!
ReplyDeleteLooks like I won't be dropping this show yet.
ReplyDeleteGive it a season. If around in season two he very well become a Immortal crime fighter.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI am quite behind, this is really good reason for me to catch up :D
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha
ReplyDeleteYou definitely have a crush huh, LOL
ReplyDeleteI hope so LOL, he rocked as Josef
ReplyDeleteHe was great in it, you should watch it, it was a really great show.

ReplyDeleteI know about the show, but never felt appealing to me. And my To Watch list is way to long atm.
ReplyDeleteI can't view it. Not avail. On Mobile.
ReplyDeleteFor w/e reason it's working now. =/
ReplyDeleteNothing has even aired yet ... and ... I'm already 'shipping' Wami / Wileya / Wilbekah.
ReplyDeleteGod help me now. ;)
:)
ReplyDeleteOk, I'll look at it later. Way too late for that particular music. And I'm Sooo tired.
ReplyDeleteGet ready the Marshmallows are coming.
ReplyDeleteMarshmallows? 0.o
ReplyDeleteJOSEF!
ReplyDeleteI get that, arm-long or Santa Claus-list long? LOL
ReplyDeleteOoh i forgot about Freya, i guess since's been accepted into the family, she deserves happiness so why not a cop her? But NOT Cami, NEVER CAMI! LOL
ReplyDeleteSanta long and just 2 more months to finish some of it till the regular season starts again.
ReplyDeleteWow so are you in binge-watch mode right now?
ReplyDeletehttp://zap2it.com/2014/02/veronica-mars-movie-why-are-fans-called-marshmallows/
ReplyDeleteMore or less yes. Real binge watch starts Monday.
ReplyDeleteYeah never watched VM.
ReplyDeletePoint was all the "Veronica Mars" fans ( MARShmallows ) are downloading all 44 episodes as we speaking and will be coming to "The Originals" for season 3 in Oct. #RatingsScore
ReplyDeleteHow come ?
ReplyDeleteIs she in the words of Esther... 'marked' for Klaus's eyes only ?
I really hope so. TO needs the boost for sure.
ReplyDeleteWow
ReplyDeleteThey're soulmates, so the UNIVERSE marked them LOL, the REAL universe, not Markos.
ReplyDeleteThe Moonlight feels!!
ReplyDeleteVampire solidarity: RAH! RAH! RAH!
ReplyDeleteUnfairly, he'll always be Logan for me. But I never turn my nose up at pretty on The Originals.
ReplyDeleteA cop? I'm sure he'll be dead before the season ends.
ReplyDeleteAnd come back as a vampire !!!
ReplyDeletemy favourite guys in one place - AWESOME :D:D:D:D
ReplyDeleteI hope the character has a lot of snark because Jason Dohring can do snark. I hope he makes Klaus cry.
ReplyDeleteYES. I rewatched Moonlight recently and really enjoyed seeing him again post VMars being pretty much Logan as a vampire. I am definitely looking forward to this.
ReplyDeleteI was a big fan of Moonlight loved Joseph but he better not mess with Elijah
ReplyDeleteEverybody makes Klaus cry. Lol that's no challenge. Lol
ReplyDeleteI know, that's why I want him to have his turn.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha ok then.
ReplyDeleteI loved Klaus but all of sudden, he just started crying over everything and pouting. I couldn't take it.
ReplyDeleteI hate Klaus. I went from loving him, to loving to hate him, to hating him forever. I can only tolerate him now. Once in a while. But very little once in awhile.
ReplyDeleteI still both love to hate and love the guy. He's an asshole, but man do I find him entertaining. Plus he got rid of Jackson for now.
ReplyDeleteI give him his props when he has his moments. I mean for years i wanted him dead. (since middle towards end of season 3 of TVD lol) But i can deal with him b/c he's funny. If that makes sense. = / Which i guess it does b/c you just said you find him entertaining. lol (And i do ship Klamille, but that's besides the point.) Other than that, if Elijah, Marcel, anyone were to kill him, WITHOUT killing everyone through his line, i would be CHEERING!!! I would not be crying over his death at all. Wait, actually, I would want Marcel dead before Klaus, so yeah. As far as Jackson is concerned...I'll consider him rid of" when he's dead completely. Knowing he's still out there bugs me. And i do want Hayley back with Hope.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be cheering (because despite how much of an asshole he is, I'd miss him like if Merlyn was ever killed off) but only a Mikaelson can do it. Meaning Elijah, Rebekah or Marcel (he counts). At least Jackson's gone for now. Hayley I don't mind coming back soon, but jesus I really hope they kill her and Jackson's relationship. Though if she does go up against Klaus, she will need some serious help.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha Marcel does not count. If you mean adopted then sure. But he wouldn't be able to kill Klaus w/o dying himself. It could only be Elijah, or Rebekah. (don't want to count the other ones b/c they're actually dead). As they are true Originals. Hayley and Jackson make me want to vomit. So yeah. She will need some help, i'm not sure where she'll get it from. They need to get rid of these damn wolves and start from scratch. Davina's too busy worrying about Kol. and i'm not sure Freya lies with Hayley.
ReplyDeleteIDK what with the first sires trying to kill the Originals next year I think sire line stuff is gonna go. Yeah, there has only been two other couples in the history of my watching TV that bother me more than Jackson and Hayley (mainly because they're toxic, had just as little chemistry and were just bad and annoying). But those two are still terrible.
ReplyDeleteSorry, my bestie just called. I'll get back to you, will u be awake? (He talks a lot) in an hour.
ReplyDeleteTHEY NEED TO DROP THAT SB bullshit!! Ugh! I've been waiting for that for yearssss!
ReplyDeleteWell the Sire line.
ReplyDeleteHe's a STALKER an no one admits it.
ReplyDeleteI just saw an interview with Yusuf and i can't be sure but i THINK he let it slip that Daniel Sharman's coming back to the show.
ReplyDeleteI do not care about a human detective.. the 2nd oldest vampires are more interesting
ReplyDeleteGreat casting..Im in love with this guy.....
