The Daily Telegraph reports
She has played a mermaid, a witch and a
werewolf so, not surprisingly, Aussie actress Phoebe Tonkin is wondering if
she'll ever play a human being again.
Not that it's hurt her career. In fact, the one-time H2O: Just Add
Water star is preparing to begin shooting on her new series The Original
- a spin-off vehicle for her character from her current US show The Vampire
Diaries.
Speaking from Atlanta yesterday - where the vamp series is shot -
Tonkin, an up-and-comer who got her start in the US in the bewitching The
Secret Circle, admits the new role is a coup.
"It was pretty exciting when they told me. It's basically a whole
new show based around my character so I'm honoured to be a part of it,"
she told Confidential.
Tonkin also hopes to continue seeking film roles, having appeared in the
shlock horror shark movie Bait and the successful Aussie flick Tomorrow,
When The War Began.
"It's just hard getting back to LA to do auditions while I'm
spending most of my time filming in Atlanta," she said.
"But it's something I need to keep doing. You just have to keep at
it."
