The series, slated to return this fall, is currently in production shooting in Vancouver, BC. Missy Peregrym is a Canadian actress and former fashion model best known for her role as Officer Andy McNally on the ABC and Global Television Network series Rookie Blue.

Van Helsing airs on Syfy in the U.S., on SuperEcran in Quebec, Canada and globally on Netflix. And as we first reported, Missy can be next seen guest starring on an episode of Law & Order: SVU airing Wednesday, March 29 on NBC, as TVLine mentioned.
