the vampire diaries’ season 7: damon learns who he is without elena
《吸血鬼日記》第七季：，達蒙沒有了埃琳娜，找回了自己
elena (nina dobrev) might be gone on “the vampire diaries,” but that doesn’t mean damon (ian somerhalder) is going to be any less in love with her in season 7. showrunner caroline dries says this year is going to involve damon learning who he is when he’s not in a relationship, but there are no plans for him to move on from his longtime love.
埃琳娜（妮娜·杜波夫）可能會離開《吸血鬼日記》，但這并不意味着在第七季裡達蒙（伊恩·薩默海爾德）對她的愛有任何減少。制作人卡洛琳·德賴斯說今年劇中的單身的達蒙會學習找回自己，但目前還沒有讓他移情别戀的計劃。
“i don’t like it when shows like ‘felicity,’ which i watched every episode of, but she was defined by who she was dating. our show kind of became that,” dries tells zap2it at cbs’s 2015 summer tv press tour party. “obviously damon is madly in love with elena, but what else do we know about him? not a ton.”
“雖然我一集不落地看完了《費麗絲蒂》，但是我不喜歡把此劇變得像它一樣，女主角因交往的對象而受到議論。我們的電視劇有點這種傾向，”德賴斯在2015年的cbs的電視新聞夏季之旅的派對上告訴 zap2it 說。“顯然，達蒙瘋狂地愛着埃琳娜，但我們還知道他什麼呢？不是很多。”
one of season 7’s goals will be learning about damon and what he does in his spare time. “bringing in his mom [lily] this season is going to shine some new light on new layers of his personality,” dries says. “he’s an interesting person.”
第七季的目标将會是了解達蒙以及他在閑暇做什麼。“這一季他母親[莉莉]的出現會顯示出他另一種人格的光輝，”德賴斯說，“他是個很有趣的人。”
while damon will struggle with learning who he is when he’s not defined by his relationship, the writers get to find new ways to make his stories interesting. but even with his soul-searching, damon won’t be over elena.
當單身的達蒙掙紮着認清自己時，編劇們會找到新的方法來讓他的故事變得有趣。但即使他的自我檢討也不能讓他忘懷埃琳娜。
“he’s mourning her. he’s privately resenting bonnie (kat graham) for being alive while elena’s ‘dead.’ it’s not like it’s going to be the plot of every episode, but i think inside he’s spiraling a little, being like, ‘without elena, who am i?'” dries says. “it’s just the natural progression of the character. he’s not going to be crying over elena, but a lot of what he does is for elena in his weird way.”
“他在為她哀悼。他因埃琳娜的死而邦妮（卡特·格蘭厄姆）活着而私下憎恨邦妮。這不再會是每一集的情節，但我覺得在他為此困擾，會想，“沒有了埃琳娜，我是誰？”“德賴斯說。“這隻是這個角色的合理發展。他不會為埃琳娜而哭，但他以他自己怪異的方式為埃琳娜做了很多事情。”
during the cw’s executive session at summer tv press tour, network head mark pedowitz opened the door for dobrev’s return. “we’d have loved nina to stay. she did a great job with the six years she was on the show. she is welcome back any time she wants to come back,” he says. “as you know, the character is sound asleep at the moment.”
在cw的夏季電視新聞之旅的行政會談上，網絡主管馬克·佩德維茲表示歡迎杜波夫回歸。“我們會一直希望妮娜留下。六年來她在本劇的表演很出色。“隻要她想回來，我們随時歡迎，”他說。“此刻這個角色一定是正在睡大覺。”
both he and dries reveal that the show is going to shift focus to tell the love story about brothers damon and stefan (paul wesley) salvatore now that dobrev’s character no longer on “the vampire diaries.” bringing their mother lily (annie wersching) into the mix is making that story more complicated.
他和德賴斯都知道《吸血鬼日記》由于杜波夫離開，要改變關于塞爾瓦托兄弟達蒙和斯特凡（保羅·韋斯利）的愛情故事的故事重點。他們的媽媽（安妮·沃斯奇）的加入會使故事更加複雜。
“we were like, ‘how do we replace elena in the triangle between the brothers?’ and what kind of naturally happened is lily is the third point in the triangle,” dries explains. “they each love her and hate her in a different way, so she’s more of the katherine.”
“我們會想，”我們怎樣在兄弟之間的三角關系中取代埃琳娜？“自然而然想到的是莉莉就是這個三角關系的一角，”德賴斯解釋道。“他們兩個都以自己不同的方式對她又愛又恨，是以她更像是凱瑟琳。”
“they have different feelings towards her, and she’s able to manipulate them and love them differently,” dries continues. “she was trying to basically turn them against each other, but they’re like, ‘you know what? i’ve been brothers with him a long time, so i think i’m going to side with my bro.’ the love story this season is the brothers, so they’ll get the most screen time.”
“他們對她有不同的感覺，她可以在愛他們的同時相應地操縱他們，”德賴斯繼續道。“她想在他們當中挑撥離間，但他們會這樣，‘你知道嗎？我們兄弟這麼久了，是以我想我還會站在我的兄弟這邊。’這一季的是他們兄弟之間的有愛故事，是以他們兩個戲份最多。”
also coming to the forefront are caroline (candice accola), bonnie, alaric (matthew davis) and enzo (michael malarkey) “a little bit, because he’s trying to figure out literally where he fits in the world.” “the vampire diaries” season 7 premieres on thursday, oct. 8 on the cw.
同樣在本劇一線的主角有卡洛琳坎迪絲·阿科拉），邦妮，阿拉裡克（馬修·戴維斯），還有恩佐（邁克爾·馬拉基）”也會出現一下下， 因為他想要找到在這個世界上容得下他的地方。”《吸血鬼日記》第七季将于10月8日周四在cw首映。
