Todd Williams is on his way to Mystic Falls - and this may mean trouble for our favorite blood suckers.

The actor has been cast on The Vampire Diaries Season 4 as Connor, a vampire hunter who will debut on the October 18 installment of this CW drama and who is described in network notes as a "highly trained killing machine."

Williams has experience playing men on the right side of the law, having portrayed a detective on In Plain Sight and a police officer on The Chicago Code.

No word yet on exactly how he'll interact with Damon, Stefan and company. But don't expect his hunter to get along as well with his supposed prey as the show's previous hunter. (RIP, Alaric. We miss you, buddy.)

In a Season 4 press release, The CW referred to a "new villain" intent on "destroying" the bond Elena and her friends have with their hometown. It's safe to assume this outline was referring to Williams' Connor.

虽然现在还没有准确的信息表明这位新猎人会以什么方式与达蒙（Damon），斯特凡（Stefan）以及其他人相处。但是请不要期望过高，他可不会像他的前任猎人一样和他的猎物成为朋友。（愿你安息，阿拉里克（Alaric），我们都会怀念你的。

在有关第四季的新闻中，CW电视台曾透露，镇上将出现一个新的反派试图破坏埃琳娜和她朋友们之间的关系。那么让我们设想一下，这段话指的大概就是威廉姆斯饰演的猎人康纳了。
