Dobrev left The CW’s Vampire Diaries after the season 6 finale. Executive producer Caroline Dries told EW of her final scene, “Rarely does it happen where the last line of dialogue you say is the last line of the episode, so for the last thing for us to shoot in season 6 to be Elena’s last scene was very strange how it came together perfectly.”
