"The Vampire Diaries" star reveals: I'm being boycotted because of my support for Israel

Actor Nathaniel Buzolic, who played Kol in 'The Vampire Diaries', claims that one of his co-stars is working to get him banned from fan conventions due to his public support for Israel. In a video, he called the colleague a 'coward' who fears for his career.

Actor Nathaniel Buzolic, known for his role as Kol in the series 'The Vampire Diaries' and 'The Originals', claims he is facing a professional boycott from one of the show's stars. In a video posted on social media, Buzolic accused his former co-star of working behind the scenes to prevent his participation in fan conventions. The reason, he says, is his public and consistent support for Israel, especially since the events of October 7. In the video, Buzolic said: "I'm going to spill some tea for you." He explained that the actor, whom he did not name, ensured he was excluded from events if he himself was present. Buzolic called the colleague a "coward" and claimed he is afraid to express his views publicly but acts against him covertly. He ended the video with the phrase "Always and forever, eh?", a family mantra associated with the Mikaelson family characters in 'The Originals', hinting that it is one of the actors who played his on-screen family members. Buzolic first appeared on 'The Vampire Diaries' in the third season in 2012. In the caption added to the video, he wrote: "Telling the truth will always cost you something, but at least you'll never become a coward."
