‘Reign’ Casts Steve Lund; Michael Bowen Joins ‘Animal Kingdom’

Bitten alum Steve Lund has booked a recurring role in the upcoming fourth season the CW drama series Reign. Lund will play Luc, a sexy, highborn rogue who is also a plain speaking realist. He’s a good guy who happens to have a morally compromised and very powerful father: Lord Stephan Narcisse (Craig Parker). But he is his own man, eyeing his own future, even as his father pressures him to make lasting and permanent inroads with the French royal family. Specifically, Narcisse wants his son at Princess Claude’s (Rose Williams) side. Luc’s arrival on our canvas will complicate Claude’s life in ways she could never have imagined. Lund is best known for his lead role of Nick Sorrentino on Syfy series Bitten and as a recurring on CBC’s Schitt’s Creek. He’s repped by Untitled Entertainment, Gersh and The Amanda Rosenthal Talent Agency.

Michael Bowen is set for a recurring role on TNT’s drama series Animal Kingdom, from John Wells Prods. in association with Warner Horizon Television.

Bowen will play Vin, a mercurial, dangerous ex-con who was Pope’s cellmate in prison. Bowen recently appeared on Gotham and Castle and played Uncle Jack on the final season of Breaking Bad.
