'Reign's Rachel Skarsten Joins CW's New 'Batwoman' Series

Rachel Skarsten just booked a brand new role in The CW’s new Batwoman series!

The former Reign actress – you know her best for playing Elizabeth I, the pain in Mary, Queen of Scots’s side – has signed on to play a villain in the show.

Deadline reports that Rachel is playing Alice, the joker villain to Batwoman (Ruby Rose).

The leader of her Lewis Carroll–inspired Wonderland Gang, she swings unpredictably between maniacal and charming, and has made it her mission to undermine Gotham’s sense of security.

Batwoman focuses on Kate Kane (Rose), who soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city’s criminal resurgence.
