Meghan Ory, who was promoted to series regular on Once Upon a Time Season 2, has been cast as the female lead (opposite Josh Holloway and Marg Helgenberger) on Intelligence, a futuristic drama very likely to receive a series order for this fall.

Ory's Ruby has not been featured prominently over the past few months on OUAT, with Deadline reporting Intelligence is in "first position" for the actress, meaning she will leave the ABC series if it gets picked up.

Both shows are produced by ABC Studios, however, giving Ory some flexibility to pop back up in Storybrooke down the line.

The actress will portray a former Secret Service officer on Intelligence. The character will be in charge of protecting Holloway's unique U.S. Cyber Command agent, someone with a microchip that allows him to access the entire electromagnetic spectrum.
