A&E's upcoming new drama 'Breakout Kings' has added a killer to the cast. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Serinda Swan has been brought aboard to play a regular role -- Erica Reed, an expert in finding people, then hiding and killing them.

Swan's star is on the rise. She played Aphrodite in this year's 'Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightening Thief,' and has played Zatanna in 'Smallville.' She'll get another boost with the release of 'Tron: Legacy,' in which she plays a Siren.

'Kings' was picked up in June by A&E after it was passed on by Fox, where the show was developed. The show, about a group of U.S. marshals and ex-convicts who team up to track and capture escaped prisoners, tested well, but got lost in the shuffle of Fox dramas like 'Lie To Me,' 'Human Target' and 'The Glades.'

The cast also includes Laz Alonso, Domenick Lombardozzi, Malcolm Goodwin, and Brooke Nevin. The pilot was written by Matt Olmstead and Nick Santora, who both worked on 'Lie To Me' and 'Prison Break,' and directed by Gavin Hood, who directed 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' and 'Tsotsi.'
