#11: Don’t Call Me Baby
Vampire TV shows and movies are aplenty in the entertainment industry, and the 2010s teen drama The Vampire Diaries is arguably one of the best (or at least most popular) vampire TV series out there. The show’s casting was great, especially the three main actors portraying the Salvatore brothers and Elena. Perhaps one of the reasons why their on-screen chemistry was so convincing is that Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev were a real-life couple for three years.
The two share one particularly dramatic scene on the show, which is made even more emotional knowing the actors were once a real-life couple. When the slick Damon Salvatore, portrayed by Ian Somerhalder, says his line, “I don’t have a choice, baby,” no one suspected this wasn’t scripted. As it turns out, the “baby” was the actor’s addition, his personal touch to the scene.
