UPDATE: Comicbook.com has confirmed that Lachman has been cast as Roulette on the show, with this character description:
“Based on the classic DC Comics character, Roulette runs an underground alien fight club in National City and she is eager to get Supergirl in the ring,”
Supergirl Season 2 will be flying into The CW in just a few weeks as the Girl of Steel continues her adventures to protect National City. YVR Shoots recently spotted Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. actress Dichen Lachman on the set of Supergirl in a red dress with a dragon tattoo, which resembles the DC villainous Roulette. You can check out a few photos below, where you can also spot Maggie Sawyer (Floriana Lima) and Alex Danvers (Chyler Leigh).

“Now, in Season Two, Kara has left the safety of being Cat Grant’s assistant in order to figure out what she really wants to do, while as Supergirl she continues to work at the DEO., protecting the citizens of National City and searching for Jeremiah and Cadmus. Along the way, she will team up with Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) to battle new villains, as she strives to balance her personal life with her life as a superhero.”
