I dont think Kristen is a good fit for tv...she just doesnt come across as a "weekly actor"...(and I know I'm gonna get slammed for this..but to me ...after the popularity of Bella in Twilight...I think thats why they made Elena a brunette...) :)

No way in hell!
Kristin Stewart is such a bad, monotonous actress... she would absolutely ruin Elena and The Vampire Diaries.

and she generally sux big time...
Actually I wish Nina was casted as Bella she's amazing and hell better than Kris!!!

Nina is perfect.

No!!! I have no problem with Kristen but she could not play Elena. She's not a very good actress. I actually think Nina could pull off playing Bella though.

NO WAYY!
At first i didnt like Nina Dobrev as Elena CAUSE SHE WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE THAT TRADEMARK BLONDE HAIR but then after accepting it

I LOVED NINA

OMG!! TOO MUCH TWILIGHT!!! WHAT IS THIS?!

^ I know and I agree with Nicole

Im happy who she is jeez!!!! twilight is twilight vampire diarys diffrent story!

Maybe then Elena would be more interesting...Because I can't stand that typical boring school girl like Elena. But I also can't imagine Kristen like typical girl.

HELLL NOOO!!!
omg the show would fail with her as elena.
we all know people don't just watch twilight cause of bella...

well Kristen could but she cant play Kathrine she's to sweet for her character Nina dobrev is such a good actress she can play two totally different parts kristen could play kat but not as good.
