NEW YORK — Nathaniel Buzolic, who appeared in both “The Vampire Diaries” and its spinoff, “The Originals,” accused one of his co-stars of having him blocked from fan events over his pro-Israel views.

Buzolic made the claims in a clip shared to Instagram earlier this week, vowing to “spill the tea” for fans of the CW shows.

“There’s an actor I have worked with who has had me banned from attending fan events if he’s there, quietly,” he explained.

“He doesn’t share his solidarity with the Palestinian people on his social media, but that’s probably because he wants to protect his career,” the 47-year-old actor continued. “But he also wanted to stop me from getting work and meeting with fans at fan events. So if you’ve noticed my absence, that’s why.”

While he did not name the co-star, he called them a “coward” before using inflammatory language to describe the Palestinian culture.

“Cowards, cowards, because they won’t publicly share their support, but they want to stop people like me from earning an income and getting work,” he said.

The Australian actor first appeared in “The Vampire Diaries” — which also starred Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder — in 2012 during the third season. He played Kol, a vampire and one of the siblings in the Mikaelson family, which also included Joseph Morgan’s Klaus, Daniel Gillies’ character Elijah, and Rebekah, played by Claire Holt. He reprised his role in the spinoff series “The Originals,” which ran for five seasons from 2013 to 2018. He also appeared in a second spinoff series, “Legacies,” which aired between 2018 and 2022.

Buzolic concluded his Instagram post with a nod to the Mikaelson family motto: “Always and forever, eh?”

The actor further explained his frustrations in the caption, writing: “Telling the truth will always cost you something but at least you will never become a coward. I remember when he didn’t want to do fan events cause he thought he was above that. Can you guess who?”

Following the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks, Buzolic has been vocal about his support for Israel, and he has visited the nation several times in recent years.
