Laura Vandervoort, who played Kara/Supergirl on the long-running hit drama series ”Smallville”, has been tapped for a recurring role on TV’s “Supergirl”.

The model and actress will play Indigo, described by producers as a living, strong-willed supercomputer that was sentenced to Fort Rozz after turning against the people of Krypton. Now on Earth, Indigo will let nothing stand in her way.

Meantime, Jeff Branson (”The Young and the Restless”) has been cast in the recurring role of Master Jailer. As the forceful and unrelenting jail guard on Fort Rozz, Master Jailer showed no mercy. Now on Earth, he is hellbent on catching all of the Fort Rozz escapees and brutally bringing them to justice.
