My interview with Todd Lasance took place at the Friday Night Bites Season 7 finale party in Covington Square. Fans know it as “Mystic Falls”. Want a tour of it? Check out Mystic Falls Tours.
Known for his villainous character as ‘Julian’ in season 7 of The Vampire Diaries, Todd spent his time in a very interesting role. In spite of his murderous tendencies towards the Salvatore brothers, Julian was an antagonist in love. Albeit equip with narcissistic tendencies, he truly loved Lily Salvatore (Damon and Stefan’s estranged mother) and wanted her all to himself. To this end, he would spare no effort in making sure he had things his way. I mean, I guess a century and a half long love affair will do that to you right?
In season 7 we watched him control Lily and her little brood of heretics after his resurrection from the Phoenix Stone. It was interesting to watch the conflict between Lily’s love for Julian and her love for her sons, as completely screwed up as that love was. There were moments where Julian’s dominating affection towards Lily was kinda hot. Maybe I’m just a little cray but I thought it was.
Still, lest we not forget that Julian was responsible for the death of Stefan’s unborn child and ultimately the loss of his first true love. You couldn’t help but to get pissed at the guy… but damn if he isn’t smoking hot right.
Good news…
Todd Lasance is the sweetest narcissistic villainous vamp you’ll ever meet. In fact, he’s downright charming and has a spectacular sense of humor.
Todd Lasance Interview
I had the pleasure of speaking with Todd this Friday and yes, he’s as handsome as personable. In my opinion, I think he looks even better in person.
He’s fit, tall with piercing baby blues and damn if his smile doesn’t light up a room. I have to say, he’s much hotter than most film stars are in real life. Male talent tends to be lanky and short… they have to keep up with their jaw line maybe? Not Todd! While I wasn’t exactly whipping out the tape measure, he must have stood at 6′ tall. And yeah, standing with him for a photo isn’t the worst thing I’ve done on a Friday night that is for sure.
