“Greg [Berlanti] and I have wanted to work with Odette for years,” “Supergirl” Executive Producer Andrew Kreisberg said in a statement. “We are beyond excited to have her join our cast in the scary, powerful and heartbreaking role of Reign.”
In the “Supergirl” Season 2 finale, the show flashed back to the end of Krypton, when a mysterious group sent another pod to Earth, promising the baby would grow up there and “reign.”
“Supergirl” Season 3 premieres this fall on The CW.
