'Legacies' Creator Julie Plec Talks Upcoming Film Noir Episode at SCAD aTVfest 2020

The cast of Legacies step out for the 2020 SCAD aTVfest on Saturday (February 29) in Atlanta, Ga.

Joining the stars of the series – Danielle Rose Russell, Jenny Boyd, Quincy Fouse, Aria Shahghasemi, Kaylee Bryant, Peyton Alex Smith, and Chris Lee – were the show’s creator and EP Julie Plec, as well as executice producer Brett Matthews.

At the festival, Julie opened up about one of the show’s upcoming episodes, which is set in film noir.

Legacies is doing its first and maybe only film noir episode, which is born out of the brilliant mind of [executive producer] Brett Matthews, who actually studied noir in film school and is a huge fan of the genre and knows it intimately,” she told EW. “We just wanted to dive into a fantasy world we hadn’t done before.”

“It was just a genre that stuck with me for a long time,” Brett added. “Actually, we had the episode broken and we didn’t know conceptually what we wanted the world to be. There were a lot of ideas on the table. There was Western, there was steampunk, there was Victorian. Film noir just became the perfect storm of producible and fit the tone of the season and that particular episode.”

The Legacies film noir episode, titled, “There’s a Place Where the Lost Things Go,” will air on March 12th on The CW!

Jenny Boyd Describes Thomas Doherty's Vampire Character as 'Smolderhalder 2.0'

If you missed the news, Thomas Doherty is going to be playing a new vampire on Legacies in the new season and Jenny Boyd is letting us know all about him.

Speaking with TV Guide, the actress says that Lizzie is very much about Sebastian.

“Lizzie develops feelings for him very quickly,” she shared. “He’s kind of an Ian Somerhalder type — smoldery, old-school guy — so that’s definitely her jam… He’s a little bit ‘Smolderhalder’ 2.0, you know? He’s got that vibe, that really sexy, just impossibly beautiful human type of thing going on.”

Showrunner Julie Plec added that Thomas’ character is an “old, old, old-world vampire” who was “desiccated when he was 17 in maybe the 15th century and now wakes up in the 21st century and realizes that all the rules of being a vampire have changed and that he does not fit in into this very modern world.”

Don’t worry though, Lizzie is there to help him out.

“Lizzie obviously has strong opinions about everything, so we’ll see how that plays out in their relationship,” Jenny adds. “It’s kind of that line between lust and hate at times, maybe. You know this thing of, like, ‘Oh, I really like you, but I don’t like that I like you.’”

Legacies premieres on Thursday on The CW.

'Legacies' Cast Talks What's Coming in Season Two of the Show at Comic-Con 2019

The ladies of Legacies look so fierce in this pic from their signing event during 2019 Comic-Con over the weekend in San Diego, Calif.

Danielle Rose Russell, Jenny Boyd, and Kaylee Bryant joined co-stars Matt Davis, Aria Shahghasemi, Quincy Fouse and Peyton Alex Smith for the meet and greet with their fans after a panel moderated by Candice King.

In an interview with TVLine, Jenny, Danielle and Kaylee all opened up about what’s ahead for their characters in season two.

For Lizzie and Josie, Kaylee and Jenny opened up about the merge.

“I really don’t think Josie’s in a place where she would fight back,” Kaylee says. “She’d let her win.” Jenny, though, is convinced that it would be a close battle.

Danielle also chatted about a world without Hope: “It’s definitely a change of pace…it gives these guys a little bit of freedom to explore different situations and dynamics now, because it’s justified. Last year, certain things wouldn’t have been justified, but now we get to experiment a little bit — until Hope is remembered and all hell breaks loose.”

Thomas Doherty Is Coming To 'Legacies' As a Possible Love Interest For Lizzie

Thomas Doherty is headed to the world of the supernatural on Legacies!

Revealed over the weekend during 2019 Comic-Con, the 24-year-old actor, who we all know as Harry Hook from the Descendants franchise, will be appearing on the upcoming second season of the CW series.

TVLine reports that Thomas character, who has yet to be named, is “a very old vampire with old ideas about the way things work — but Lizzie might be into that.”

Lizzie, played by Jenny Boyd, had two potential love interests in season one – vampire Rafael, and werewolf MG.

Thomas isn’t the first Descendants star that was on Legacies either – Jedidah Goodacre, aka Chad Charming, reprised his The Originals role as Roman in an episode last season.
