Ian Somerhalder On How Wife Nikki Reed Saved Him From Financial Ruin and Led Him To Launch A Bourbon 

They pretty much are by now. Paul said last year at a convention that he doesn't even really think of Ian as his friend, he's family. 💚💙

V-Wars was a good show, but Ian should have started to play a tougher character much earlier than the last few minutes of the last episode. The little boy had more courage than his father. For me the show was too much child-concentrated. The dominant figure should have been the doctor and father. The main issue to solve the pandemic and genetic changes worldwide. You have to listen, what the audience wants to see, if you want success. Or books readers want to read.

Hello 👋 greeting from Paul Wesley

That's what my grandma said! ❤️

Imagine when he gets older. 🥵🥵

Don't ever compare him to that pedo.

Was thinking the same wile I was watching v.d.

Lol! Nope.

@@chrisking6695 I found some high school pictures and he actually looked like a normal high school student.

Keyword: Seems

Keep up with your comment

@@iansomerhalder9755 Ian Iam absolutely in love with you you are handsome so beautiful I hope you get this iam in love so much with you

He was offered to act in Legacies, which is nothing else than kiddy-stuff in Buffy-manner. Nearly all main characters denied to act in Legacies. The terrible directed movie "Anomaly" crushed, V-Wars with him directing ended after one season. He wanted the role of Lucifer, but was still playing TVD. I guess he is doing his commercials for Bourbon, as once as a model. The problems here seem to be more psychologically and alcohol. He can not get over it! Could somebody shake this guy to wake up? - And if he ever would come back as Damon, than human aged and not as a vampire (maybe as wizard, teacher, special forces agent?), divorced (Bonnie would be a good match!). And it would be a totally different show anyway - so why still as Damon?

@@SusiBlumentopf Honestly I dont know why ian didnt want to return as damon especially cause I believe he preferred his role in V wars over damon, a human father, he despised the vampire part he said so. He liked it at first then grew to not like it. And he is damon freaking salvatore, I refuse to believe a character of that popular caliber cant say make some changes and I will join, cut out of the campiness and nonsense and I'll consider joining. I cant respond to the alcohol comments that is irrelevant to my main point.

@@malivore7264 some shows you want to watch forever... But you can't. As a never-aging vampire Damon would be still 25 years old, as Ian he is now 43. And both, Ian and Nina, cannot stand each other. Well as a human the writers could have offered him a better script than kiddy-Legacies, but they didn't. He said, he might have written his own story - producers didn't want that.

@@SusiBlumentopf Well, he turned into human in TVD with Nina. So as a human he would be in his 40s. And no he is not supposed to write his own scripts, that's what he needs to understand, it's highly unprofessional to expect something like that. He has responsibilities of his family, by denying to play Damon he basically choose to give up his entire acting career, With Damon he had some chance of saving it. His unprofessionalism and mixing lovelife with career lead him here. Nina is a wonderful person, and you are not supposed to have bad blood with your co-worker, but just because he don't want to be shipped with Nina and want to be "good husband" to Nikki he spoiled his professional image by doing that.

@@shailstia9137 Never heard about "Burn out"? Depression? He worked very heard since he was 10 years old, just to hear 2015 that he lost every Cent of his fortune, including all the money from TVD till 2017, and had 10 millions on dept's. V Wars (he himself directed) ended after one season. You can not give 100 percent for a role if you are depressed. During the pandemic not many movies and shows were made anyway. He is trying to do his commercials and to write scripts, and is somehow hiding himself at home. You are right, it is time to get up on his feet again, life is not over. I hope he gets some roles offered and is casted, by God, to have still money or not. And I hope he is that clever to choose wisely. He played eight years with not many days off, from morning to night, as an actor in TVD and wanted to leave already after three to six seasons. I really loved the show, the story and Ian playing Damon. But he cannot be stuck with his vampire character Damon forever. That would not be fair. He has to play something different. He is such a good guy in real life, and although he played being bad vampire very good, his nice and vulnerable aura was shining through, that is why the audience loved Damon, whatever his character did. His talent is laying more in Family Drama, Comedy, Action, Western. I think, Ian does not see himself that way. He has to have a good director and producer as well, to give him advice. He cannot afford to make failures. What do you have against authors and script writers? Do you doubt, he can write properly? - I do not like Legacies at all, for me it is really kiddy stuff age 10-14. But in the other hand, too brutal for them. I understand, if serious actors do not want to join. The scripts are really childish! Far beyond TVD! Since when did the business see vampire and witch movies only made for teenagers - since Buffy, Twilight or Teen Wolf? It used to be made for adults. I had to say, TVD season 1-2 did not impress me much, because of that stupid US-Highschool stuff with parties all the time. Story copying Twilight. The Damon scenes, Katherine and the Originals kept me watching. - Besides, Nina and Candice had been too tall for their characters. That annoyed me very often. With Rebakah the same, but her character was Scandinavian, so possible. So we come to the conclusion: we all want to see Ian Somerhalder in new shows and movies back again!

I value all your support

Interesting thanks also for sharing

Thanks for supporting me

Have you been supporting me for long

How many of my movies do you know about?

They married in 2015 & this debt thing happened in 2019 when they already married & having their daughter 🤷🏻‍♀

*her

@@Hi-cq2hm Your special ed teacher called. She wants you back

🤡🤡🤡🤡

@@zing2283 He said it happened during the show he lost all his money, the dept's summarized and rised, and maybe 2019 he could make some deals to get out. It is tragic, he was made a model from age 10 on by his mother (instead of finishing good schools), worked very hard, starved a lot, and lost every Cent with 37. No wonder having a break down. It is time to get back on the track again!

@happyyo-tn4ts I read post on his Instagram about how she helped him. Respect to her. I don't understand why lots of people hate her. She looks perfect for him.

This was way before his Brother's Bond company with Paul. It was other investments he made years ago, he's talked about it in other interviews.
