Season two of Reign [1] is looking bleak, everyone. Francis and Mary are the new King and Queen of France, but the Black Plague has taken over the country and is even creeping into the castle. Despite the circumstances, it's still nice to see everyone back in new pictures. It feels like ages since we've seen Mary and her ladies in waiting. Take a look before the season premiere airs this week on The CW.

Toby Regbo as King Francis II and Anna Popplewell as Lola on Reign.

Sean Teale as new character Louis Conde.

We approve of this casting.

The men walk through the forest.

Rossif Sutherland as Nostradamus.

Adelaide Kane as Mary, Queen of Scotland and France.

This is just fantastic.
