Daniel Gillies has compared himself to Charlie Sheen.
The Vampire Diaries star, who plays the Original Elijah, took the stage at a Chicago convention for the show this weekend, where he talked about his escapades as a child.
"I was just so naughty," he said of his childhood. "I was bad. I was Charlie Sheen."
The actor went on to praise his co-star Joseph Morgan, who plays his brother the Original Klaus on the show.
"Joseph Morgan is so good, he's so mischievous," Gillies said. "He's sort of Napoleonic, he has this thirst for power… and I like that Elijah is the Consigliere to him.
"I love watching their two energies together," he continued. "I don't think power is as important to Elijah as stability is, and he hopes he'll achieve that."
When asked what his power would be if he were a superhero, Gillies answered: "To be Joseph Morgan."
