Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley may not be heading back to Mystic Falls, but they are officially set to reunite, years after wrapping up their hit teen drama ‘The Vampire Diaries’.The former co-stars who played on-screen love interests will now reunite for the upcoming thriller ‘You Deserve To Know’. The film, which is a new adaptation of the novel of the same name, will see Dobrev play the role of Gwen, while Wesley stars as Scott. The two portray neighbours who find themselves on opposite sides of a murder investigation, setting them on a collision course as the mystery unfolds.As per Deadline, the film centres on three suburban couples who are not only next-door neighbours but also best friends. Their seemingly perfect lives are upended when one of the husbands is murdered, exposing a web of long-buried secrets that threatens to tear their friendships apart.News of the reunion comes shortly after Paul shared with People, “Nina and I have always thought of doing something together. So, maybe there’s a world in which Nina and I can do something together.
