Nina was confirmed all the way back in November 2016 to be guest starring in an episode of Workaholics, but there was no details about her character or specific episode until very recently. Nina will be appearing in a guest starring role on the eighth episode of the seventh and final season of Comedy Central’s Workaholics. The episode title is confirmed to be Termidate as a character named Courtnee with an air date set for Wednesday, March 1st 2017.
Workaholics stars Blake Anderson, Adam Devine (who previously starred as Kurt in the horror comedy film The Final Girls with Nina), Anders Holm, Maribeth Monroe and more besides in a comedy revolving around three friends who are constantly together as they work as telemarketers from 9am until 5pm, then live together from 5pm until 9am.
Nina posted on social media that she really appreciates being able to be part of Workaholics before the final season ended accompanied by a picture of her with the cast at https://www.instagram.com/p/BMZneBfgbs0/?taken-by=ninadobrev
“If you know me, you know I don’t take myself seriously. I’ll do anything for a laugh. Including get puked on. Which I did. Get puked on. During the filming of #WORKAHOLICS. It wasn’t pleasant but my god, it was f*-^ing funny. This episode was SO FUN to shoot and I love these goofballs. So bummed that this season, after 7 years, will be the final one, but I am honored that I got the chance to be a small part of it before it ended. Congratulations on 7 hilarious seasons Boys, looking forward to seeing what you all do next! Cheers, now let’s have some beers!”
Nina even pranked her Workaholics and The Final Girls co-star Adam Devine in a video posted on Twitter at https://twitter.com/ninadobrev/status/793918064827854848 accompanied with the caption, “No coffee? No problem. I’ll help wake you up. Or stop your heart. It’s a 50/50 chance @AdamDevine #WORKAHOLICS #NeverTooEarlyForAGoodScare”
Nina’s guest starring role in Workaholics airing on Wednesday, March 1st 2017 is a prelude to her return as Elena Gilbert and Katherine Pierce in the finale of The Vampire Diaries which airs on Friday, March 10th 2017.
Why she made the cut:
“I’ve been wanting to cut it for years and years and years. I wanted to cut it midway through shooting [The Vampire Diaries], but I couldn’t because of the character. This is the first time, I realized, since leaving the show that I’m finally on-screen again, so I thought new character, new year, new ‘do.”
Why she asked Riawna to do it:
“Riawna Capri is a very dear friend of mine and she flew to London to cut it. It was a big deal for me—it’s been 15 years since I had a major change. I wanted my best friend to do it.”
The emotions she felt when getting the cut:“I’ve been waiting for this for so long that I was just like, ‘get it out of the way, get it over with, and do it fast.’” Continue Reading

Her favorite scenes to film:
“The group scenes were probably my favorite. Whenever the whole group’s together we can play off each other. In between the takes, we would make jokes and get to know each other. The cast is so multi-cultural that I personally learned a lot about different places that I didn’t know about—little fun facts. Now I feel like I have homes in so many different countries because we all became very close. I’m welcome in all of their living rooms [laughs] and they’re welcome in mine as well.”
How those prank wars started with Ruby Rose:
“I was bragging about being the best prankster, that I could scare anyone and no one could ever scare me. So she said, ‘Challenge accepted.’ When she said that I immediately, that same day after we wrapped, ran to her trailer and hid behind a cupboard so when she entered, I scared the living bejeebus out of her. That sparked a whole war. She put the head shots of herself in my trailer and I put the crabs in her trailer, because she was crabby with me on set. We kept on going back and forth for a long time. At the end of it, we were both terrified and couldn’t leave our trailers because we thought the other one was plotting something at all times. Which we were.”
On her upcoming film, Flatliners:
“The film is so beloved. Any time I mention it to anybody, everybody knows about it and has fond memories. This new take is sort of a departure from the last one, in that technology has changed so much, and the advancements in medicine—doctors can actually do a lot of things we do in the film. It’s a lot more grounded in reality, and our director, Niels Arden Oplev, who directed the [original] Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, is a stickler for detail. He wanted it to be as real as possible, so we had to go through three weeks of medical training. I had to learn to play the cello and do swim lessons and all these crazy things. It was a blast. I had a great time.”
