A popular spin-off from a renowned American fantasy series will be available for free streaming from next month on ITVX, which already boasts some of the UK's biggest dramas and exciting international shows. Among its hit titles are romantic dramas like Gilmore Girls, Dawson's Creek, Jane the Virgin, and comic book series such as Pennyworth and The Flash.
Fans who have already devoured all five seasons of the successful Vampire Diaries spin-off, The Originals, also on ITVX, will soon be able to enjoy its sequel, Legacies. First aired on the CW between 2018-2022, the series centres around Hope Mikaelson (played by Danielle Rose Russell), a unique Tribrid born from vampire, werewolf and witch bloodlines.
Introduced in the fifth and final season of The Originals, 17 year old Hope now attends the Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted, where she navigates her adolescence amidst supernatural threats and mysteries, reports the Express. Returning from The Vampire Diaries is the school's human headmaster Alaric Saltzman (Matt Davis), and viewers can meet more characters including love interest Landon Kirby (Aria Shahghasemi) and witch twins Josie (Kaylee Bryant) and Lizzie Saltzman (Jenny Boyd).
While Legacies may not be the most popular addition to the Vampire Diaries universe, fans agree it's worth watching when it lands on ITVX next month. "This is an underrated show that doesn't get enough credit for what it's able to do," one viewer expressed in their Google review.
