'Vampire Diaries' vs 'Twilight': How do Elena and Bella Differ?

While both Vampire Diaries and Twilight deal with vampires, last week's episode of Vampire Diaries proved that the series and the film are very different. Elena Gilbert, played by Nina Dobrev, and Bella Swan, played by Kristen Stewart, see their lives playing out very differently. The executive producer of the CW series, Julie Plec, talked about the difference between the two recently.

According to Digital Spy, she said the following about how Elena differs from Bella: "When we started the show, the similarities to Twilight were so extreme. This was our way of closing the book on that chapter of similarities. For Elena to say, 'I've never even wanted this for a minute because I'm still a kid and I still have choices to make in my life, choices that I wanted to make' - I was happy to let her have this introspection when the choice has already been made for her."

In Twilight, Bella Swan wants to become a vampire from the beginning. She wants to spend eternity with Edward Cullen. It is Edward that is hesitant to allow her to do this. Elena might not have a choice in the matter depending on how events in the next two episodes plays out. She has vampire blood running through her veins thanks to Damon, so it is very possible that she will turn into a vampire before the end of this season of Vampire Diaries. It all depends on how the ritual plays out, and if she ends up dead because of it.

Fans know that Bella Swan goes vampire in Twilight: Breaking Dawn, but will Elena Gilbert do the same on Vampire Diaries? Fans will have to keep tuning in to find out.
