Actress Nina Dobrev is in negotiations to return as Elena for the final season of 'Vampire Diaries'.

Showrunner Julie Plec and The CW's president Mark Pedowitz confirmed that they are in discussions with Dobrev, reported a website. "There are discussions going on with Nina, we'd love to have her back. She was integral to The Vampire Diaries. Hopefully she'll be back, but should it not work out, Julie has planned out a great series finale for fans," Pedowitz said.

Asked if there will be a time jump to bring back Elena, Plec said, "(Co-creator) Kevin (Williamson) and I have two very different points of view about flash forwards. He and I will be doing a lot of talking in a good way, (to decide) the right path to take this series to an end."
