‘The Vampire Diaries’ Season 8 Finale Spoilers: Nina Dobrev’s On-Screen Father Likely To Also Return
Arianne GiftContinuing on "The Vampire Diaries" season 8 hype by dropping morsels of spoilers, it seems as though Nina Dobrev isn't the only Gilbert returning to the show. Her on-screen father might be, too; at least according to a verified tweet.
David Anders, who plays John Gilbert, tweeted a rather vague confirmation of his appearance on "The Vampire Diaries" season 8. As hardcore TVD fans know, the older Gilbert was previously presumed to be Elena's uncle, and thenlater revealed to actually be her father.

Anders has been keeping himself busy with another CW show, "iZombie," which films in Vancouver, Canada. The actor has recurred on "The Vampire Diaries" throughout season 1 and season 2, and then ended his life quite tragically, albeit for a noble cause. To recall, his character sacrificed himself to save Elena's life.
John was brought back to TVD season 5 as one of Katherine's hallucinations before the character succumbed to death. While there's no confirmation yet from The CW of John's return, TVLine is currently reaching out to the network, so let's keep posted.
In other news, fans have been speculating how Elena will make a comeback on "The Vampire Diaries" season 8. The show has only six episodes left before it goes for good and with that comes a swarm of guesses from fans on how she will return.
One theory presented by FanSided involves the death of Bonnie in either the finale or penultimate episode of The Vampire Diaries" season 8. According to the website, TVD could end with a big flash forward. Bonnie gets to live a long, happy life, and Elena wakes up to start her life with Damon. The series is supposed to end with Elena reading excerpts from her friends' diaries over the past couple of seasons.
There is no word yet how Dobrev will return, or if Anders will, indeed, make an appearance somewhere in "The Vampire Diaries" season 8. In the meantime, here's a clip of Katherine's memorable encounter with John.
