Jane Badler 'had to audition for V role'

Jane Badler has admitted that her return to V was not always certain.

The actress played Diana in the original version of the show and will play a new version of the character in the second season of the ABC reboot.

"From the moment I heard V was coming back, it was something I was hoping to be part of, but they tested a lot of people for this role," she told TV Guide. "A lot of years have passed, so it feels good to win something."

Badler revealed that the new Diana, reimagined as the mother of Anna (Morena Baccarin), will be similar to the previous incarnation.

"I'm still the way I've always been," she explained. "Lots of hair and eyes, a bit Raquel Welch-ish."

She confirmed that viewers will first see her character imprisoned on an alien ship by her daughter.

"I'm the queen in exile, locked away in a dungeon for 15 years," she said. "It's mother abuse!"

The second season of V is expected to air on ABC in November.
