WATCH: The trailer for Ian Somerhalder's 'V Wars' is here

OH WOW. - by Milly Haddrick
  • 21 Nov 2019

Fam, Mystic Falls was clearly child's play compared to the world of V Wars.

The first trailer for Ian Somerhalder's new vampire series for Netflix has dropped, and it looks SO intense. 

WATCH: V Wars Official Trailer | Netflix

Based on what we can see in the trailer, V Wars is going to be a hell of a lot darker than The Vampire Diaries.

We got mild anxiety watching this trailer.

Netflix

In the upcoming series, Ian will no longer be giving us Damon Salvatore vibes, but instead will be portraying Dr Luther Swann, a man who is forced to confront the world of monsters and horror after a mysterious disease transforms his bestie Michael Fayne (Adrian Holmes), into a murderous predator who feeds on other humans.

AKA, Michael Fayne becomes a vampire.

Ian is no longer a vampire.

Even though the new vamps attempt to live peacefully amongst humans, when news hits the non-blood suckers that vampires are a real an all-out war breaks out.

Us right now watching that trailer.

In a fun twist, it looks like Ian's wife - and fellow vampire from the Twilight series - Nikki Reed will also be joining the show, as we saw a ~very~ brief glimpse of Rosalie Cullen in the trailer. 

V Wars

Yes please give us an on-screen Nikki and Ian romance.

Netflix

Earlier this month, Netflix announced that V Wars will be arriving on our screens December 5th. 

"If you’re battling the vamps, you’re going to need someone with experience. Good thing @iansomerhalder is here to join. V Wars coming to Netflix on December 5th!", Netflix wrote on Twitter.

GET HYPED.

Showrunners William Lauren and Glenn Davis have also told us that season one will contain ten episodes. 

Mark December 5 in your calendars and prepare to binge.
