Tricia Helfer, the Canadian actress best known for portraying Number Six on the re-imagined "Battlestar Galactica" series (2004-09), is returning to Syfy to join the Season 4 cast of the action-horror series "Van Helsing" in the role of Dracula.
Nomadic Pictures and Dynamic Television also just announced four other cast additions for the 13-episode season that gets underway this fall: Richard Harmon (The 100), Nicole Munoz (Defiance), Keeya King (Jigsaw), and pro-wrestler Paul Wight (aka Big Show) are all on board in undisclosed roles.
Helfer, more recently seen on "Lucifer" as the Devil’s mother, will bring a lot of bite to Van Helsing’s dark conflict between the living and the undead, according to Chad Oakes, Executive Producer and Co-Chairman of Nomadic Pictures.
“We are thrilled to welcome the talented Tricia Helfer to our Van Helsing family,” Oakes said. “She will be a fierce and unstoppable DARK ONE (Dracula)…as the battle between good and evil reaches new heights.”
Production is already underway on Season 4, which will return in the Fall.
