The CW has revealed the first two cast members of its “Supernatural” spinoff, “Supernatural: Tribes,” and one of them will be a very familiar face for those of you who also watch the network’s previous spinoff, “The Originals.”

Per Deadline, Australian actor Nathaniel Buzolic (pictured right) and UK-born Lucien Laviscount have landed the leads in “Supernatural: Tribes,” which will air as an episode of “Supernatural” on April 29th.

Buzolic portrayed Kol in “The Originals” and its parent show, “The Vampire Diaries,” while Laviscount (pictured below) honed his craft in such UK series as “Coronation Street” and “Waterloo Road” as well as appearing in “Episodes” on Showtime.

Written by Andrew Dabb and directed by Robert Singer, “Supernatural: Tribes” centers around the various Mafia-esque monster families that, unknowingly to humans, “run” the underbelly of Chicago and are being tracked by a newly-minted hunter who’s trying to stop them and rid Chicago of anything or anyone supernatural.

Buzolic plays David Hayden, a shapeshifter from one of Chicago’s ruling monster families, who has been living as a human, having given up the monster life years ago.

Laviscount plays Ennis Roth. When his fiancée is killed in the crossfire of the monster war, the resolute police academy trainee learns the truth about what lurks in the shadows and becomes a monster hunter himself.

There should be more announcements coming soon so stay tuned!
