SPOILER ALERT
In this interview Joseph Morgan talks about Klaus's love, their faults and the pilot of "The Originals".
Question: Klaus and Caroline are now officially "friends". At this point, what can be said about Klaus's feelings about it?
Klaus is still very fond of her. Look, when he was dying, he called Caroline. Not his sister, or his brother. That says a lot about his feelings for her. In that episode where Caroline was dying (Into the Wild, 4 × 13), she said "I know you're in love with me." Klaus wants to believe, that is capable of love. We'll see how it turns out.
Question: It sounds like Klaus is softening.
Softening?? Not at all. We'll explore more of her vulnerable side, for example in the American Gothic episode 4 × 18. The thing about Klaus is that just when you start to like the character because it seems to be turning into a better person, go and chop 12 hybrids with a sword or kill someone's mother. I think I always see walking around in the same circle, sometimes vulnerable, sometimes feared.
Question: In the series we see Damon goes from being a psychopath insensitive to a tortured anti-hero. Could be the same with Klaus?
For the story in The Originals meant redemption of Klaus, I doubt that people forget as Klaus killed Aunt Jenna and the rest of people. It takes thousands of years to do so, to get what they want in their own way. I wonder how that can be redeemed. I doubt that will happen as with Damon.
Q: Not long ago, Klaus was magically trapped in the Gilberts house when he left there and was determined to get revenge. Is all this anger past history?
Of course not. It's been 500 years chasing Katerina. When you're so old, the perception of time is different, and therefore vengeance need not be immediate. Klaus still remember what you guys did at the end of the third season, and has not yet forgiven. So no, Klaus is not leaving the soothe his anger.
Question: How does Klaus has hit the small meeting he had with Silas?
Now it has been discovered that Silas can get in your mind, you can manipulate it at will in a way that no one has never been able ... A Klaus always likes to be the one who handles the situation, the alpha. Concerned that there is a being out there not only able to kill him, but thinking it is dying. It seems that she does not like to feel controlled, as we saw in American Gothic.
Question: Elijah and Rebekah returned to Mystic Falls with healing. How is the family dynamics? How do you see your brothers Klaus?
At this time does not take particularly well with Rebekah. He can not understand that her sister wants to be human again. Their relationship worsened since she ended the way to create new hybrids. However, they will like to see Elijah again. Also comes from his brother pearls bring healing to shake off Silas. I always say that this family can do terrible things from it, but you do not someone outside this.
Question: Can you give us a preview of the next chapters, especially the chapter The Originals and help us continue the pilot of the spin-off The Originals?
The next chapter will be devoted specifically to the original, we will see Klaus and Elijah gathered. We will see who believes that Elijah would be more beneficial to give the cure. We will also see that it is leading to Klaus to New Orleans for the chapter of the spin-off. This chapter contains scenes in Mystic Falls. Wake up with Stefan, Damon and Elena, but amid march become clear as the new series. It will be epic. At TVD we see the story of a small town, but in The Originals see the world on a larger scale. The series will focus on a war between two species and the dispute that exists there. Klaus will see much more on screen, which meant more work for me than I do in The Vampire Diaries. It was a fantastic new challenge.
Q: Finally, why they love hearing Klaus hates? Are you surprised that your character is a favorite?
The truth is yes. I never expected that my character had so much to tell. I knew there were parts of it with which I was identified and tried to emphasize. I tried to have a reason for everything he did. He had always been the least loved child and least favorite of his father. To give the character roots, reasons and motives as these, was giving a strong substantiate Klaus as such. So, yes, I was quite surprised but I got the chance to show their most vulnerable. It's a flawed character and I can boldly say that we are all imperfect in some degree. Nobody is perfect. I hope you have small portions of Klaus with which everyone can identify ...
