Reign - Season 2 - Rachel Skarsten Cast as Queen Elizabeth + Vince Nappo to Recur

EW has confirmed that Reign has cast Rachel Skarsten, most recently seen as Christian Grey’s assistant in Fifty Shades of Grey, as Elizabeth, who is set to first appear in the season 2 finale. Much of season 3 will focus on her character and the drama surrounding her.

“The character of Elizabeth, Queen of England, the only living child of Henry VIII and the murdered Ann Boleyn, looms over Mary Queen of Scots for the duration of her life,” executive producer Laurie McCarthy said in a statement. “Elizabeth has also, without ever stepping onto our stage, loomed over our first two seasons as a forceful and intriguing presence. I have been dying to introduce her to our characters and our audience. Because no single character understands Mary’s unique circumstances more. No character is more of a threat to her happiness and her life. Elizabeth’s debut in the season finale is a catalyst for events in season 3,when Reignwill chronicle the lives, loves and tribulations of three queens: Mary, Catherine, and now Elizabeth.”
