‘The Originals’ episode 21 preview: Joseph Morgan and ‘The Battle of New Orleans’
Almost from the very beginning of “The Originals,” you knew that the story was building to something like this. “The Battle of New Orleans” airing next week is the most important episode of the series’ entire run to date. Not only will it feature a near-war between so many of the show’s characters, but also set the stage for something even larger and more shocking in the big season finale.
In case you haven’t seen all of the details just yet about the episode, just be sure to check out the official synopsis below:
“Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) enact a plan to collect the sacred stones needed by Genevieve (guest star Elyse Levesque) in order to forever change the fates of Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) and the werewolf community. Realizing that Klaus’ plan will lead to the extermination of all French Quarter vampires, Marcel (Charles Michael Davis) rallies an army determined to take down the Mikaelsons and regain control of the city. Davina (Danielle Campbell) warns Josh (guest star Steven Krueger) to leave town as she is forced to make a fateful decision that will Turn the tide of war. Meanwhile, Francesca (guest star Peta Sargent) threatens Cami (Leah Pipes), who attempts to decipher a code that results in a surprising revelation among the city’s factions.”
To us, the most intriguing thing about this episode is that lines of battle are not necessarily drawn from one supernatural world to the other. Things are far more blurry than this, which makes everything all the more interesting the rest of the way.
