User blog:Team-jacob girl/Kellan Lutz teaming up with Vampire Diaries's Nina Dobrev.

Nina Dobrev is starring alongside none other than Kellan Lutz in "The Killing Game," and she has nothing but great things to say about her new co-star.

'The Killing Game' is an indie action film that Kellan stars in, and he blows it out of the park," Nina told Hollywood Crush. "It’s his movie and he kicks ass in it."

The Killing Game (not to be confused with The Hunger Games—although the plots share a few similarities) is an "action-thriller" (as described by Nina) that centers around a world in which men are matched up in gladiator-style battles for the entertainment of online viewers. Nina plays the role of Kellan's wife. "I have a small but important part in the film," she said. While Nina didn't elaborate much on her role, she couldn't stop gushing about Kellan's.

"Kellan does a really good job because as much as we’ve seen him in Twilight and other movies, this role is really all about him and he really delivers, and I think people are going to be really pleasantly surprised and excited to see him taking on such a big role."

Kellan isn't just Nina's co-star though—they're also friends. In fact, they met each other way before they started filming.

"We’ve known each other for a little while now," she said. "All the vampire shows all kind of ended up at the same functions and the same events, and so we all kind of know each other."

While there is no official release date for the film yet, I am certainly excited for it. After all, this is one of the first times since The Vampire Diaries that we'll get to see Nina step out of Elena and Katherine's shoes and into something completely new, and while we'll miss Ian and Paul, we're looking forward to her chemistry with Kellan.

So, what do you think about Nina and Kellan pairing up for The Killing Game?
