'The Originals' Season 5 Brings Back Klaroline's 'Spark,' According to Julie Plec
Klaroline fans will be happy with the latest hints Julie Plec dropped ahead of "The Originals" Season 5.
The series creator and showrunner previously revealed that Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and Caroline (Candice King) would be reunited in the CW series' final season, and now she is doling out other delicious tidbits. Plec shared the information Saturday during a Q&A session on Twitter, which she held to raise funds for the Hispanic Federation's UNIDOS disaster relief program. Needless to say, fans showed a lot of curiosity about Klaroline and the show's other ships.
One of the big takeaways from the Q&A was that Caroline will mostly be sharing the screen with Klaus during her multi-episode arc and that Plec has found it "fun to see their spark" again.
I think most of Caroline's scenes are with Klaus.

The showrunner also revealed that Caroline will "do a lot of reflecting" during her stint, namely on "what she was like as a teenager and what she's like now."
We'll see her do a lot of reflecting about her past, what she was like as a teenager and what she's like now, all these years later.

With all of this focus on Caroline, fans who prefer Klaus with Cami (Leah Pipes) will be pleased to know that there's at least a "sliver" of hope that we'll either see her or hear about her.
Perhaps a sliver. But no promises.

Meanwhile, Plec gave insight on Kol (Nathan Buzolic) and Davina (Danielle Campbell), promising we'll see them in Season 5, Episode 11. She also shared that Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) will deal with "love and pain in equal measure" in the upcoming season.
We will see them together. Episode 511.

Their relationship is filled with love and pain in equal measure this season.

Season 5 isn't all about romantic relationships, though; as Plec put it, the "true ship of the season" is actually the Mikaelson family.
100% the true ship of the season is Klaus and his family.

There will clearly be a lot of interesting material in the 13 episodes to come. "The Originals" Season 5 will likely premiere in 2018.
