Powerful witch Vincent Griffith, played by Yusuf Gatewood, shall also be having an important role for the show’s third season.
In a recent interview during the ComicCon 2015 held in San Diego last month, Gatewood disclosed that his character will play as a mentor to Davina Claire, played by Danielle Campbell. Fans know Davina as the newly appointed Regent of the New Orleans witch community. She used to be a harvest witch and a former member of the French Quarter coven.
But the actor, who was an original cast member of “The Originals” refused to disclose whether his mentorship is to be taken in by Davina hook, line, and sinker.
Vincent will apparently showcase his witch knowledge while dealing with the interesting challenges to be thrown at him in the upcoming season of “The Originals.”
Gatewood, who portrayed the Original family member Finn Mikaelson during the first half of “The Originals” Season 2 also revealed that actor Casper Zafer will return as Finn Mikaelson, but only in the form of flashback scenes.
For those who have been following the series, it would really be interesting if Finn would meet Vincent in Season 3 because it was actually the body that he possessed after he was resurrected in the finale episode of “The Originals” Season 1.
