Jane Badler Is Once Again A ‘V’

ABC announced today that actress Jane Badler, best known for her role on the original mini-series’ V and V: The Final Battle, as well as V: The Series, will join the cast of ABC’s new version of V as a recurring guest star, playing Diana, mother to Anna (Morena Baccarin), who is now the leader of the Vs. Badler will make her debut in the Season 2 premiere of the series. What is especially intriguing is that Badler’s character in the original V was also called Diana. Will we find out that this new series is not a remake after all, but an actual continuation of the original? If so, how will they explain how the world seems to have forgotten the first visitation? That probably won’t end up being the case, but it’s fun to image “what if?”. V returns for its second season in November on ABC.
