The spin-off will center around the character of Hope Mikaelson, the tribrid daughter of Niklaus Mikaelson and Hayley Marshall-Kenner.
Her powers are not yet known, but tribrids have the genes of a witch, werewolf and vampire.
Her name was given to her by Niklaus, her father, after her uncle Elijah said she was their family’s hope.
The new show will star two fan favorites from the Originals, Matt Davis (Alaric Saltzman) and Danielle Rose Russell (Hope Mikaelson).
Other actors currently cast for the show are Quincy Fouse, Jenny Boyd, Kaylee Bryant and Aria Shahghasemi.
The Originals and The Vampire Diaries creater Julie Plec, who will also create the spin-off, first wants to get the final season of The Originals done, before any official information about the pilot will be announced.
The fifth and final season of The Originals will air from April 20th unwards on The CW.
