NBC and Sky Living's upcoming TV series Dracula has found its female lead, with Deadline reporting that Australian actress Jessica De Gouw (Arrow) has joined Jonathan Rhys Myers' (The Tudors) nefarious Count in the role of Mina Murray. De Gouw recently guest-starred on the CW's hit superhero series Arrow, where she portrayed Helena Bertinelli, a.k.a. the masked vigilante Huntress.
Created by comic book writer Cole Haddon (The Strange Case of Mr. Hyde), the ten-part series sees Dracula arriving in London under the pseudonym of American entrepreneur Allen Grayson. While he maintains his goal is to bring modern society to Victorian London, Dracula's true motive is to seek revenge against those who ruined his life centuries before. However, his plans are complicated when he meets Mina, a medical student engaged to Jonathan Harker who also happens to be the spitting image of his long-dead wife.
Dracula is set to air later this year.
