Which Mikaelson Is Jaime Murray Getting Close to on The Originals Season 5?

Jaime Murray is headed for New Orleans.

According to TV Line, the actress has landed a role on The Originals Season 5 as Antoinette.

The character will cross paths with Elijah on the final season of the supernatural drama which has yet to receive a premiere date from The CW.

The former Once Upon a Time villain is set to debut as Antoinette on The Originals Season 5 Episode 3. Series star Joseph Morgan directed the episode, so it's sure to be a good one.

The Originals Season 4 concluded with the Mikaelsons separating in order to keep Hope safe because the siblings essentially split the evil that was The Hollow between them.

If they are in the same vicinity, there's a good chance the evil will become too much and cause some more upset for the family.

Elijah wound up in a European country and became a musician because his past had been wiped by Marcel to allow him to move on with his life.

When the series returns, ten years will have passed, and Hope will still be in Mystic Falls attending Caroline and Alaric's magic school.

That means we are getting to see both Candice King and Matt Davis as their The Vampire Diaries characters once again.

Given the time jump, Danielle Rose Russell has been drafted in to replace Summer Fontana as Hope. On top of that, Leah Pipes and Sebastien Roché are returning for the series finale.

All we are waiting on now is a premiere date from The CW. The Originals Season 4 launched in March this year, so there's a good chance it will debut around that time in 2018.
