TV SHOW NEWS MAY 29TH: VAMPIRE DIARIES, GREEN LANTERN & MORE

‘Vampire Diaries’ Season 2 Scoops

hollywoodcrush.mtv.com: When last we left Damon he was smooching Elena, or so we (and he) thought until moments later when she whipped out that big butcher knife and let us know she was really Elena’s look-a-like, naughty vamp Katherine. So will deceived Damon continue to woo Elena in the upcoming season? “The only thing I can say about them for season two, is that it’s going to be a very profound triangle,” Julie said rather coyly, though she did drop a few hints.

“Damon’s still got a long way to go until he’s man enough to deserve Elena. But he has a strong pull, a strong draw.” But with Katherine stalking Mystic Falls, Julie says to expect more of a “love square.”

Though I was never good at geometry, that does sound rather intriguing, no?

And speaking of the ancient vampire diva, Julie confirmed that Katherine and Elena are indeed related (unlike in the book series), and that their connection will continue to be revealed. “Our position is very much that the bloodline is the Pierce bloodline. Isobel is part of that, as is Elena. Elena looks like Katherine, they’re doppelgangers. That’s the big question that will continue to be asked deep into the second season.”

Green Lantern Gets TV Show

Heat Vision has announced that a Green Lantern cartoon series is being developed to air on Cartoon Network “in the second year after the film release” of  “GREEN LANTERN” – which means the year 2012-2013. Launching a cartoon series shortly after a movie about a superhero is hardly uncommon, especially for DC superheroes.

This is interesting, as an interview with Bruce Timm, producer of many of WB’s hit DC cartoons and current producer of their “DC Universe Animated” line of animated DVD films, claimed that Warner Home Video felt that the DVD animated feature, “GREEN LANTERN: FIRST FLIGHT” did not sell well enough to warrant a sequel. Could it have been because WB would rather save their resources for a longer term Green Lantern project, such as a TV show? At any rate, it helps cement the rise of the character within this past decade from notable B-Lister to all but replacing Wonder Woman as part of DC’s Big Three (or becoming part of their Big Four).
