Tyler Lockwood has mostly been absent from The Vampire Diaries Season 5, showing up for basically one episode... having a lot of sex with Caroline... and then breaking up with her to go battle Klaus in New Orleans.

Yes, TV Fanatics, the rumor has now been confirmed: Michael Trevino will show up this Tuesday on The Originals.

What can we expect from Tyler's "second act of revenge" against his hybrid nemesis, as Trevino described to TV Fanatic yesterday on The Vampire Diaries set?

Might this actually be a suicide mission?!?

And what about Forwood? Is that a done deal for sure?

Watch Trevino spill on his character's past in Mystic Falls and tease his future in The Big Easy now:
