Dobrev spoke to Zap2it about the CW series, stating that she believes that Damon, played by Ian Somerhalder, has trouble being a good guy because he never receives any reward in return for his reformed lifestyle.
"When we first started the show, Damon was this crazy maniacal killer, and he was basically a ticking time bomb," said Dobrev. "Then he started to somewhat redeem himself, almost for Elena, and he kept doing all these great things, but he wasn't really getting rewarded for it. To his defence, why be good if nothing ever comes of it?"
Dobrev continued: "He never gets rewarded for his good deeds, so he's kind of going back to his selfish state as well," referencing Damon's use of compulsion on his girlfriend Andie Starr.
Vampire Diaries producer Julie Plec recently spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the final episodes of the second season, stating that Damon's compulsion of Andie will come back to haunt him in the near future.
"We won't hit that for a few more episodes, but there will be that moment when Damon's desire to distract himself from his feelings for Elena blow up in his face, and the allure of Andie starts to leave a bit of a sour taste," said Plec.
Somerhalder recently revealed that he is excited for the season's final episodes, particularly the encounter with the long-awaited vampire Klaus, to be played by British actor Joseph Morgan.
