" This week, the main thing that's going on is the attempt to get out of there now that Kai's gotten Bonnie's magic back, as he would say, since he coaxed it out of her by torturing Damon! That was a clever and complicated way of doing it," Wood said. I think he is truly a sociopath, but also circumstances caused him to snap and we'll definitely learn more about that."īut before we dive into Kai's past, Bonnie and Damon have to deal with him in the present.not an easy feat. "There's obviously something going on there that has created this resistance in him that makes him so hell bent on revenge. "We're going to learn more about his past and why that day is significant to him, why he massacred his family on that day, what happened with his coven and his powers and why his family viewed him as an abomination," Wood revealed. He's a new force in this world that no one has really seen yet."Īnd fans will get to see much more of him going forward, including learning more about his mysterious (and disturbing) past. That's one of the most beautiful parts about him. He's an engaging nemesis for Damon to go up against because he's so similar and so unaffected by Damon. He's entertaining to watch, and I love his apathetic, villainous quips. "He's hilarious in a way that the writers have found a nice balance of comedy and darkness. "I think that he truly is deliciously evil," Wood said. Wood credits the TVD writers for making Kai so magnetic that even when he's admitting to mass-murdering all of his siblings in gruesome detail, fans still want him around. He's the very definition of that word and we'll see more and more how that's Kai's middle name." "My favorite word to describe him is erratic. "He could very well have complete justification for his actions or he could not and just be sociopathic and psychotic," Wood teased. That makes him one of the most dangerous villains to ever be on the show."īut the real question is: was Kai, full name Malachi of the Gemini coven of witches, born that way or did something make him that way? "You can't ever assume how he's going to react or know what he's thinking. "His unpredictability and the fact that he can go from zero to 60 in any direction, be it joy or rage, makes him just really hard to peg," Wood said. And intelligence is dangerous in the wrong hands."Īnd it doesn't help matters that Kai is pretty much certifiably insane. "Villains are usually pretty smart in order to get themselves in and out of trouble but Kai is a different form of genius and that's obvious from these first few episodes-waiting to introduce himself to Bonnie and Damon for months, the way he tricked and coaxed Bonnie's magic out of her, the way he vervained the bourbon knowing Damon would drink it, all those things lead us to believe that he's pretty observant and smart. "I'm biased a bit, but I think that Kai is probably the most intelligent villain to have graced the show," Wood told E! News.
