When we get used to an actor/actress on a TV show, it is hard to ever imagine someone else in their place. Yeah, it happens all the time on soap operas but imagine "FRIENDS" with Jennifer Aniston as Monica; that would have been so weird. Another weird casting we have just learned about comes courtesy of E!. Apparently, "The Vampire Diaries" was supposed to include Ashlee Simpson...in the pivotal role of Elena! This part eventually went to Nina Dobrev but imagine the blonde bombshell trading places? It may have been that she was on "Melrose Place" that she did not make the cut or that Dobrev nailed it; whatever the reason, we are happy with the choices the show made. After all, would there have been a Nina Dobrev/Ian Somerhalder romance if they hadn't been cast together?
