It isn’t known exactly when the actress will make her debut on the show quite yet.
The report reveals thatElizabeth Blackmoreis playing Lady Toni Bevill, a “mysterious visitor from across the pond,” who has quite a bit in common with Sam (Jared Padalecki) andDean Winchester(Jensen Ackles). Lady Toni Bevill will also return as a recurring character for an unspecified amount of episodes inSeason 12.

The network hasn’t announcedpremiere datesyet, but it seems likely thatSupernatural, the network’s longest-running show, will stay put in its Wednesday 9 PM ET time slot.
Sam and Deanhave spent their lives on the road, battling every kind of supernatural threat. Over the years, after countless bloody adventures, they have faced everything from the yellow-eyed demon that killed their mother to vampires, ghosts, shapeshifters, angels and fallen gods. With the help of allies - both human and supernatural - they’ve discovered that every victory comes with a price. Supernatural is produced by Wonderland Sound and Vision in association with Warner Bros.

Elizabeth BlackmorejoinedThe Vampire DiariesinSeason 7, portraying a heretic named Valerie. Since she isn’t a series regular, it’s possible that she could continue to recur onThe Vampire Diarieswhile also portraying Lady Toni Bevill onSupernaturalat the same time. The actress has a two-episode arc in the upcoming season of AMC’sTurn: Washington’s Spies, which debuts later this month. What do you think about this new addition to theSupernaturalcast?
