Ian Somerhalder, who played Damon Salvatore in The Vampire Diaries, has enjoyed a successful acting career since Lost. However, the actor might not be interested in returning to Hollywood. After The Vampire Diaries, Somerhalder joined the cast of another vampire series, V Wars, where he starred alongside his wife, Nikki Reed. The couple has since moved out of Los Angeles to pursue farming. They welcomed their second child and co-founded a tech-powered supplement brand called The Absorption Company last year.
