Caitlin Stasey in CBS pilot Reign

Caitlin Stasey (Neighbours, Please Like Me) has been cast in US pilot Reign for the CBS network.

Reign chronicles the rise to power of Mary Queen of Scots when she arrives in France as a 15-year-old, betrothed to Prince Francis.

Former Neighbours actress Adelaide Kane has already been cast as the young queen.

Stasey now joins her former co-star as lady-in-waiting Kenna, the vibrant and sexy daughter of an Earl who is a free spirit looking for love.

Last month Eliza Taylor, who played Janae Timmins on Neighbours, won the lead role in The CW’s pilot The Hundred as a young rebel who is part of a 100-strong crew sent back to Earth to rebuild the human race.
