What Has Nina Dobrev Done Since The Vampire Diaries?
Dobrev Has Largely Transitioned To Movies
Dobrev catapulted to fame withThe Vampire Diaries, debuting on the series when she was only 20 years old. She had previously played a role in the seriesDegrassi: The Next Generation, which introduced the actor and likely helped her land herpart onThe Vampire Diaries. Still,The Vampire Diarieswas her first major role and became a catalyst in her career. It led to other opportunities, including roles inThe Perks of Being a Wallflowerin 2012 andLet’s Be Copsin 2014.
WhileDobrev’s careerwas arguably the most active in herVampire Diariesera, she is still a working actor today. Her recent roles include parts in the filmsReunion,The Bricklayer, andSick Girl. In the past few years, Dobrev has seemed to focus on film acting, rather than the TV roles that had previously acted as her niche. Most of her recent movies have either been released directly to streaming, or have received limited theatrical runs alongside VOD releases.
Though her recovery appears to be going well, it is possible that Dobrev’s e-bike accident may set back her career for a bit. Right now, the actor is slated to appear in an upcoming horror TV show titledWoman 99, but given that there is very little information as to its production, delaying this project could happen easily. With the help of her dogs, hopefully the formerVampire Diariesstar can be on a speedy path to recovery and get back to more acting jobs in no time.
