Klaus Mikaelson and the children of New Orleans will, in fact, are the main targets of villains rolling in with "The Originals" Season 4. The rest of the Mikaelsons, who have been under the care of Hayley Marshall and Hope (Summer Fontana) during the five-year time jump off "The Originals" also need to exit dreamscape.

Still, fans would do well to recall how Daniel Gillies described the way Julie Plec crafts events in "The Originals." Earlier on Daniel Gillies told Access Hollywood that discovering the unexpected twists Julie Plec brings into "The Originals" is like being hit with a pile of bricks.

Going by what Daniel Gillies says, fans will have to be wary with hasty conclusions on "The Originals" Season 4. Julie Plec will expectedly lay out a neat bait in "The Originals" Season 4 just before Klaus Mikaelson and the gang get the rug pulled from under their feet.

The CW will air "The Originals" Season 4 premiere at midseason in 2017, with the firm release date to be announced. What is the biggest surprise you are anticipating for Klaus Mikaelson and his family in "The Originals" Season 4?
