Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley are reuniting on screen years after their time together on The Vampire Diaries, taking the lead roles in Hulu’s upcoming drama You Deserve to Know.
Based on Aggie Blum Thompson’s 2025 novel of the same name, the project is being developed by Alex Cooper’s Unwell Productions and Kapital Entertainment, with Brian Tanen (Grand Hotel, Love, Victor) adapting the screenplay.
The series follows the lives of three close suburban couples whose friendships begin to unravel after one of the husbands is murdered, exposing long-buried secrets and hidden tensions. Dobrev and Wesley will play Gwen and Scott, two neighbors who find themselves on opposite sides of the murder investigation. In addition to starring, both actors will also serve as executive producers.
The project was picked up by Hulu following a competitive development process, marking the latest collaboration between Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley, who previously starred together as Elena Gilbert and Stefan Salvatore in The Vampire Diaries.
