We have casting news for The Originals season 5 with the addition of Torrance Coombs (Reign) and Jedidiah Goodacre (The Descendants).
Coombs will play Declan, the flirty Irish chef with whom Hayley will be involved — at least physically. Coombs is known for appearing in the first three seasons of CW drama Reign playing Bash.
Goodacre will play Roman, the charming vampire who meets grown-up Hope (now played by Danielle Rose Russell) at school and takes an interest in her family after a “mysterious incident” occurs.
The Originals will return in 2018 with an 8 year time jump.
