“Smallville’s” Cassidy Freeman is heading to Mystic Falls, the fictional small Virginia town that vampire brothers Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan Salvatore (the guy who isn’t Ian Somerhalder) call home on The CW’s “The Vampire Diaries.”

TV Line reports that Freeman will play a “sexy and fearless” woman named Sage in the 16th episode of the show’s current season. The character will be introduced in a flashback sequence dating back to 1912, and may return in later episodes.

Freeman, who starred as lesbian Frances Dunhill on NBC’s short-lived 2011 drama “The Playboy Club,” is best known for her portrayal of LuthorCorp CEO Tess Mercer on The CW’s recently ended Superman series “Smallville.”
