Vampire Diaries Casts New Plaything for Jeremy

Actress Malese Jow of kiddie TV fame (Unfabulous, Hannah Montana) is about to grow up fast. The gorgeous 18 year old is in Atlanta to begin shooting her first scene on The CW’s sexy Vampire Diaries. “She comes on as Jeremy’s smart new friend, Anna,” series creator Kevin Williamson tells me.

Hmm...just a ‘friend’? Couldn’t Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) use a friend with benefits now that his love, Vicki (Kayla Ewell), was staked through the heart by Stefan? “We’ll see how it goes,” teases Williamson. “Jeremy certainly turns her head. She gets a crush. It starts in one place and maybe ends someplace else.”

Also expect this duo to uncover a mystery.
