After a shocking twist to Stefan's (Paul Wesley) livelihood at the hands of Silas brought the fourth season of The CW's The Vampire Diaries to a close, fans of the popular TV series are itching to find out what lies ahead for the Salvatore brother.

Fortunately for the show's loyalists, TVD executive producer Julie Plec spoke to TVLine on May 17 about Stefan's future.

"I can't say whether he'll be sticking around town, although I can say that he'll definitely be coming back to town when we get back into the next season. His agenda has always been to cure himself, to get rid of the other side so that he could then die and pass over and find peace. That will remain his agenda."

While Stefan's intentions are clear, the method to how he'll approach them differently in Season 5 still remains untold.

"The question is: How will he go about it? Everything he meant to do this year blew up in his face. He's going to give it a good college try. He is, after all, psychic, as well. So he can get inside people's heads and make them think whatever he wants," Plec explained.

Although no airdate has yet to be announced, Vampire Diaries Season 5 is slated to begin in September. Keep checking back for more of the latest details.
