Reign comes from the pages of the DC Comics – a Worldkiller created on Krypton by Zoe-El, with plans to conquer Earth and take down Supergirl (Melissa Benoist).

Odette‘s on-screen costume will reportedly differ from the comic book character’s.

“Greg (Berlanti) and I have wanted to work with Odette for years,” 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.” (via Deadline)
