‘The Originals’ episode 17 video: Bosses on big story for Daniel Gillies

 “The Originals” is currently in the middle of what can be best described as a state of flux. You have already seen two series regulars depart the show after less than a full season, and the news of Claire Holt’s departure last week was among the biggest reveals of all. Since that time, nobody on the show has really spoken much about what has happened with her, but you have to imagine that there is still somehow more to this story.

But what are you going to see on Tuesday night? The show must go on, and executive producers Julie Plec and Michael Narducci explain in the video below that “Moon Over Bourbon Street” is going to be a particularly impactful hour of TV. This is where you will get an opportunity to find out some more news about the current social structure in the city of New Orleans.

Klaus worked so hard to ascend to the throne of the supernatural community, but not that long after choosing to do so, he immediately turned back into being a terrible leader. He is in no way the force for all supernatural creatures the way that Marcel was, and this is going to lead to Elijah stepping in to the role.

Therefore, expect a big episode for Daniel Gillies as you watch his character really try to navigate the difficult social circles of the city, and come up with a treaty that is right for the witches, vampires, and werewolves. The only unfortunate problem here is that at least one group (in the werewolves) is already feeling left out.
