Paul Wesley made it clear that a potential reboot of The Vampire Diaries is not something he is interested in. The actor, best known for his role as Stefan Salvatore in the popular CW drama series, expressed his reluctance to revisit the world of vampires in an interview with InStyle magazine. "I would never do another vampire anything, period, let alone Vampire Diaries," Wesley stated firmly.

Despite his decision to leave the vampire genre behind, Wesley reflected on his time playing Stefan with fondness. He appreciated the opportunity to portray such a dynamic character, who evolved throughout the show's eight seasons.

Wesley credited the constantly evolving character arcs for keeping the role fresh and challenging for him.

Currently, Wesley can be seen in the Paramount+ series Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, where he plays a young Captain James T. Kirk. However, he acknowledges that he is most recognized for his role in The Vampire Diaries, which remains a fan favorite.

Although Wesley has moved on from The Vampire Diaries, he still maintains friendships with his former castmates Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder. Somerhalder, who played Stefan's brother Damon in the series, also expressed his views on a possible reboot, joking about the characters having gray hair and canes in a hypothetical scenario.

Overall, while Wesley has bid farewell to his vampire past, he continues to embrace the memories and connections forged during his time on The Vampire Diaries.
