Dobrev led the cast of The Vampire Diaries for its first six seasons, before leaving the show when her contract expired in 2015. This will mark her first appearance in the series since the season six finale.

“I’m thrilled to bring this show to an end the way we always intended — with Nina back to help us say goodbye,” executive producer Julie Plec told Variety, with Kevin Williamson adding: “I’m so excited to have Nina back to ensure our farewell episode is truly epic!”

The series finale of The Vampire Diaries is set to air on March 10th on The CW.
