Ian Somerhalder's last acting project was Netflix's "V-Wars" in 2019, which was canceled after one season. Shortly after that, he was part of the 2020 documentary "Kiss the Ground," which aims to show how farming can become more sustainable if society steps away from industrial practices that cause environmental degradation. "Common Ground" is a follow-up also focusing on "regenerative agriculture." Somerhalder is one of several superstars who appear; the cast includes the likes of Laura Dern, Jason Momoa, and Rosario Dawson (among others).
It doesn't sound like Somerhalder or Nikki Reed have plans to get back into acting. The latter, whose previous acting gig was also "V-Wars," told E! News, "It's a beautiful thing to see what's happening with children, to watch them participate in the growing of their food and the understanding of what food is and where it comes from." It appears staying down-to-earth and focusing on their kids is the greater priority at the moment. "It's become a way of living so much simpler," Reed added.
Of course, that doesn't mean the pair will avoid appearing on camera. Reed uploaded her first TikTok on January 18, featuring Somerhalder, which includes clips from the couple's respective vampire roles in "Twilight" and "The Vampire Diaries." Somerhalder even commented on the video, "You are my Roman Empire!!!!!" They may live on a farm, but they're still staying up-to-date on memes.
