Supergirl Season 3: First Look At Reigh, The Seasons Big Bad
Odette Annable joined the cast of Supergirl this season as Samantha Arias, the mother of Ruby and new head of L. Corp… but she's also has a secret. She's not of this Earth… which isn't surprising on a show like Supergirl. There are many aliens. But Samantha doesn't know that she's alien, or that she's from Krypton. She also doesn't know that she was genetically enhanced to be a Worldkiller… all things she will like learn very soon.
The CW has released the first official image of Annable as Reign, the Worldkiller. They've been building up Samantha with little hints of who she really is including this last week as she found herself covered in Kryptonian symbols and confronted by a hooded woman. She is the big bad for season 3, a loose adaptation of the Worldkiller story from the DC Comics. But she looks very different than the comic version of Reign. In the comics Reign is one of five Worldkillers created by Zor-El, Supergirl's father. He later came to regret their creation. The Worldkillers survived the destruction of Krypton. Reign became an enemy of Supergirl when she comes to try and conquer the Earth.
