The Vampire Diaries Question

In the tv series, do you think they made Elena a brunette, instead of a blonde, to try to pull the "Bella" fans over?

well, i haven't read the books but my friend was reading it and i saw that elena or w.e is described as a blonde.
i think they may have done that, because now alot of vampire shows and movies are competing.
so they wanna stay up there.

No, maybe the actress just didn't wanna dye her hair, or maybe she looked bad as a blonde. It's whatever though I like the show now and I could care less whether or not she's a blonde.

I like it too....I was just wondering why....in all the interviews I've seen they've never really addressed it....

Idk but I really don't think that it has anything to do w/ Twilight.

Of course they made her a brunette because of Bella. Truthfully that was my only complaint about the books. Elena was supposed to be blonde, perfect and frankly a little conceited. This Elena is more relatable. I like her better.

I think if she would of been blonde it wouldn't of looked right.. I think as a brunette she seems more likable i guess.

I think they may havei did go on a huge rant about it but then i thought I DO NOT CARE because, lots of movies are similar right? in a way i mean the 2 main characters almost always end up together. If you enjoy a film a show or a book, tiny details like hair colour do not matter. whether it is similar to Twilight or not, if it's a good show it is a good show, if you dont like it then that is your opinion

× I never said I didnt like it....and its not a tiny detail...in the books they made mention several times of Eleana's 'blonde' hair...and I wasnt asking to start a fight....I was merely voicing a question.....

I don't know. But if they wanted Elena to be unique they should have made her blonde. Bella is just another stupid girl and I don't see what's so special about her...

But maybe with casting a brunette Elena, they are trying to show, that even though the series is based on a book, it still has a story of it's own, and that is just representing it.
My theory ;)

the whole 'bella-edward' fan craze may have had something to do with their choice to make elena a brunette. but personally i think that nina dobrev makes a great elena gilbert. she is a good actress and brings a lot to the show. I also like how they traded elena's little sister for a younger brother who is closer to her age.
