‘Legacies’ Casts Omono Okojie

EXCLUSIVE: A new student is enrolling at the Salvatore School. Omono Okojie (NCIS) has booked a recurring role on the CW’s Legacies. She will play Cleo, a new witch student at the Salvatore School, who bonds with Hope (Danielle Rose Russlell) over their artistic passions. Free-spirited and self-reliant, Cleo is excited to find a new home at the school, and to earn a place in its Super Squad. A spinoff of The Originals, now in its third season, Legacies features characters from both series and its predecessor, The Vampire Diaries. The series stars Russell as 17-year-old Hope Mikaelson, descended from some of the most powerful vampire, werewolf and witch bloodlines. She attends the Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted, where fellow supernaturals learn to hone their skills. Okojie’s credits include a major guest-starring role on NCIS and a supporting role in the feature Gook.

Legacies Promotes Omono Okojie to Series Regular for Season 4

Legacies‘ truncated third season ended with Cleo walking through a mysterious doorway, and now we finally know what was on the other side: a promotion!

Actress Omono Okojie will be a full-fledged series regular when the CW drama returns for Season 4 on Thursday, Oct. 14 at 9/8c, TVLine has confirmed.

Though Cleo was first introduced as a witch enrolling at the Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted, she was eventually revealed to be a muse — one with questionable intentions, no less. When all was said and done, it became clear that Cleo’s ultimate mission was to activate Hope’s full tribrid powers (aka kill her) in order to defeat Malivore once and for all.

Okojie joins current series regulars Danielle Rose Russell as Hope Mikaelson, Aria Shahghasemi as Landon Kirby, Kaylee Bryant as Josie Saltzman, Jenny Boyd as Lizzie Saltzman, Quincy Fouse as MG, Matt Davis as Alaric Saltzman, Chris Lee as Kaleb, Ben Levin as Jed and Leo Howard as Ethan.
