Taylor Kinney
'Uncle Mason'
Lockwood

Taylor is an American actor and model who was born on July 15, 1981 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Even when as a new actor on the road, he has been recognized mainly for his role as Luke Gianni, on TV series Fashion House and his staring role on Trauma as Glenn Morrison. After this role as paramedic Morrison, Kinney has been called to play Uncle Mason Lockwood on Season 2 of, The Vampire Diaries.

'Uncle Mason'
Lockwood

             Mason is Mayor Richard Lockwood’s younger brother,  who has come to Mystic Falls after the death of Richard to support Tyler and help him to get through these events that are going to change his life, making him see the real world from a different perspective.

Even though there’s no much information about this character’s past, according to some, he’s going to be a very significant part on Season 2, not only because he’s here to help Tyler to deal with his father’s death but because he is also a werewolf and according to Michael Trevino’s words, Uncle Mason is “a cool and charming person, who can flip an instant if it’s crossed, specially because of the control he has of himself, something that maybe Tyler needs to learn”.

We can’t assure the future of both characters and how the relationship between Tyler and his Uncle will develop, or even we can’t assure you how Mason’s relationship with the Salvatore brothers will be, but we can assure that Mason Lockwood is in Mystic to make the Lockwood family name remain in our minds along Season 2 and yes, we can be sure we’re not going to forget this character so easily.
