Claire Holt Cast as Series Regular on Aquarius

Claire Holt is trading in her fangs for a badge.

The actress, who unexpectedly left The Originals Season 1 about three-quarters of the way through, has signed on for a regular role on Aquarius.

The Australian star will play a key role on NBC’s upcoming Charles Manson-themed event series, coming on board as tough-skinned police officer Charmain Tully.

Julie Plec, however, has said many times that Rebekah is welcome back in New Orleans at any time, while The Originals Season 2 trailer kicks off with Holt's character telling her niece a bedtime story.

Still, this news ends any possibility of Holt returning to The CW on a more permanent basis any time soon.

Holt joins an impressive cast of Aquarius, one that includes:

  • David Duchovny (Californication)
  • Gaius Charles (Grey’s Anatomy)
  • Grey Damon (Star-Crossed)
  • Michaela McManus (The Vampire Diaries)
  • David Meunier (Justified)
  • Emma Dumont (Bunheads)
  • Chris Sheffield (The Last Ship)
  • Gethin Anthony (Game of Thrones)
