The Vampire Diaries is heating up after it’s long winter nap and just in time for the new episodes, Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, and Ian Somerhalder have scored the cover of Nylon Magazine for February. Here is an excerpt:

On the similarities between Twilight, True Blood, and Vampire Diaries: “When the show first started… you automatically thought Twilight.  But once you continue, there’s a whole other side of it that goes a lot deeper… It’s about letting everyone know that we’re different but we all respect each other.” –Nina Dobrev

On the sudden success of the show: ““Do I think the show would be successful as it is, if it weren’t for all that? No.” –Paul Wesley

Hey Ian, is there any similarity between LOST and Vampire Diaries? “[My character] is gonna be the coolest character on television. There was no doubt about it. It reminded me of Sawyer, Josh Holloway’s character on LOST. He was always the character I secretly wished I could play.”

The show is hot hot hot and after this past week’s return with “Bloodlines” and all the reveals - the show is just getting better. Somerhalder also returns to ABC’s final season of LOST as Boone Carlyle on February 2nd. Check out TVD latest episode, “Unpleasantville” on Thursday January 28th at 8pm EST.

Spiderman is getting the Broadway musical treatment and Evan Rachel Wood will be on board. ‘Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark’  will begin preview performances in February of 2010 at the Hilton theater in New York City. Wood will portray Mary Jane, spidey’s girlfriend. No word yet on the casting of the radioactive spider bitten guy Peter Parker, who woos Mary Jane and fights crime but we will keep you posted.

Wood also joins HBO’s vampire series ‘True Blood’  for a couple of episodes later this season.
