SUPERGIRL: Odette Annable To Play Season 3 Big Bad "Worldkiller" Reign

Season two of Supergirl has only just finished, but season three has already found its big bad in the form of Reign. Hit the jump for details on the show's take on the villain and who's playing her.

It was hinted at in the season two finale of Supergirl last week, but The CW has now made it official: Reign is coming to National City. However, don't expect the "Worldkiller" to closely resemble her comic book counterpart as TV Line reports that the villain will "differ visually" on the small screen. 

Odette Annable has been cast as Reign today and will be the show's new big bad this coming Fall. 

She's best known for starring in the likes of House and Banshee but worked with executive producer Greg Berlanti (sort of) on Brothers & Sisters. "Greg [Berlanti] and I have wanted to work with Odette for years," executive producer Andrew Kreisberg said in a statement released earlier today. "We are beyond excited to have her join our cast in the scary, powerful and heartbreaking role of Reign."

I have tried so many times to get into this show but can't. Does it ever get better? The worst of Arrow and Flash still seemed better than the best Supergirl.

@CaptDeadpool - It's the irritating lead and the second rate writing. At least that's why I never could get into it...

@Parker00 - yeah the acting was all very "The OC"like. Couldn't get past the cheesiness.
@Ohiostate124 that's prob what I'll do.

@CaptDeadpool -

I have dropped all 3 of those shows. Couldn't get past the first season of Arrow, didn't click with me, Flash was awesome and then became bad, and I haven't even bothered with the latest season.
Barely watched any Supergirl, as just didn't like the weird tone.

Love Legends of Tomorrow though.

@SimplyAz - i have liked Arrow the whole time, it got pretty crappy for a bit but it's pretty good again. LoT I haven't tried yet but enjoyed the crossover invasion episode.

@Ohiostate124 - That last one with Superman was the worst. I'm insulted by that episode.

"Different visually" means "we didn't have the budget for white skin and an off-humanoid appearance".

Would have been hilarious if they got Adelaide Kane for Reign

But then again, I would be only able to watch the show with a pillow over my lap

Really weird review on RT

"Wonder Woman is a strong, at times even rousing, application of the superhero film formula, but it ultimately can't transcend the constraints of the genre."

2.5/4


And that's rotten with a 2.5/4 score


WW now with 95%
