The success of The Twilight Saga has made other vampire series, such as The Vampire Diaries and True Blood, extremely popular. Nina Dobrev is a product of that success because she stars as Elena Gilbert, an every day mortal, on The Vampire Diaries. Now the 23 year-old is ready to venture into movies and take on more aggressive roles.

“I want to become a different person,” she told Nylon. “I want to be a punk or a sweetheart or a drug addict! There are so many things to explore… Sometimes they’ll be like, ‘She’s not plain enough.’ Or ‘She’s not edgy enough.’ That frustrates me. I feel like a blank canvas, and I wish people would be a little more open-minded.”

As of now Nina isn’t exactly an A-list actress, but perhaps if she gets a chance to play a drug addict in a major film people will slowly begin to use her name in every day conversations.
