NBC’s Grimm has turned to 24’s villainess member of Habib Marwan’s terrorist cell Shohreh Aghdashloo to be in a recurring role on NBC’s fairytale drama.
The Oscar-nominated actress will play Stefania Vaduva Popescu, a powerful ally sought out by Claire Coffee’s Adalind. Stefania is referred to as the “Zigeunersprache,” or Queen of the Schwarzwald Gypsies, and her family’s roots run deep in the woods of Austria.
Aghdashloo’s first episode is slated to air in April.
Grimm, meanwhile, resumes its second season on Friday, March 8 at 9/8c.
