Katheryn Winnick will appear this fall as Nikita's former partner, the woman she left behind years ago when escaping the clutches of Division.

But that's merely the second biggest Nikita scoop of the week!

The CW has released a new trailer for season two, one that delivers our first actual footage from this fall's new (Friday) episodes. Among the quick scenes depicted below: Percy is angry, Amanda is suspicious, Michael is vengeful... and Nikita and Alex are seriously NOT getting along.

Nikita returns on September 23. You can exhale now.
