It’s more imaginable, although, that Ian may come again as part of one in all TVD's spin-offs, Legacies. Since The Vampire Diaries ended in 2017, there have been two spin-offs. The Originals came first, however didn’t do in addition to the first sequence, most effective making it to Season 5. Then, The CW produced Legacies, which has the similar showrunner and author as The Vampire Diaries in Julie Plec. Ian shared to ET, "I actually would love to talk to Jules. I would love to go and direct one of [the Legacies episodes].”

There is no confirmation that Season 9 of ‘TVD’ will come out.

Unfortunately for us, there’s been no official confirmation of TVD Season 9. Even though there seems to be a photo of Netflix saying, “New Season Coming March 2021,” floating around, this could be photoshopped. (Sorry to debunk the joy!) A quick Google search shows a few websites, such as Viral Cocaine, claiming a new season will be released in March 2021, but there are no references to reputable sources.

However, on the bright side, Legacies has been renewed for a third season. And even if TVD was coming back, it wouldn’t be nearly as good as old seasons. Ian has confirmed he wouldn’t be coming back, and Nina Dobrev left the show in Season 6. In fact, all the leads of TVD have moved onto other projects, so it seems unlikely they’d return to the show. A ninth season would likely be all new characters somehow.
