AppleTV+'s Five Days at Memorial; The CW's Supergirl; and Netflix's On My Block.
THE CW's SUPERGIRL
- Peta Sergeant is set as a new series regular on the drama's sixth and final season. She has previously recurred on FX's Snowfall, Hulu's Castle Rock and The CW's The Originals.
- She will play Nyxly, a quirky and kind 5th Dimensional imp, wrongly imprisoned in the Phantom Zone and driven by tragic backstory.

NETFLIX's ON MY BLOCK

She has also guest starred on ABC's How to Get Away With Murder, FX's Snowfall, Showtime's I'm Dying Up Here and FX's The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.
- She plays Abuelita, an age-defying, pot-smoking eccentric who says it like it is and is always on standby for a life and unwelcome advice.
