  By then, Klaus Mikaelson and "The Originals" cast would have gone through a time jump. As Parent Herald cites, much would have happened by the time "The Originals" Season 4 releases Klaus Mikaelson and his siblings Elijah (Daniel Gillies), Kol (Nathaniel Buzolic), Rebekah (Claire Holt), Freya (Riley Voelkel) from the consequences of Season 3.

Klaus Mikaelson would have had much time to reconsider his decision to turn good. "The Originals" Season 4 will not be an easy ride to ease back into, especially for a vampire who's battling his evil side.

By then, too, Hope would have grown up and Klaus Mikaelson will have to get reacquainted with his daughter with Hayley Marshall (Phoebe Tonkin). As things turn out, fans of "The Originals" might enjoy the dynamics between Klaus Mikaelson and Hope.

Joseph Morgan and Summer Fontana gave fans a preview on Instagram of what "The Originals" Season 4 would look like between Klaus Mikaelson and Hope. Certainly Joseph Morgan seems to enjoy having an onscreen daughter and has high praises for Summer Fontana.

Unfortunately for villains coming to New Orleans, Klaus Mikaelson will stop at nothing to protect Hope - even if it means bringing back out some of that trademark feral cruelty. Fans of The CW series will see Klaus Mikaelson turn mean once more, as Joseph Morgan warned, in "The Originals" Season 4.
