Dynasty First Look: Michael Michele Debuts as Dominique!

There's a new schemer in town on The CW's Dynasty.

Just weeks after the news dropped that Michael Michele had landed the coveted role of Dominique on the sudsy soap, we have our first look at the actress in action.

Wondering what brings Dominique to town?

Here's the official logline for Dynasty Season 2 Episode 20:

MAMA'S HOME -- Fallon (Elizabeth Gillies) and Liam (Adam Huber) team up to exact revenge against Adam, who's been sabotaging Fallon's business and personal endeavors.

Jeff's (Sam Adegoke) recovery from a mysterious illness is complicated by the arrival of a potent figure from his past -- his mother, Dominique (Michael Michele)

Grant Show, Ana Brenda Contreras, Robert Christopher Riley, Maddison Brown and Alan Dale also star.

The episode was written by David Israel and directed by Elodie Keene (#220).

The big episode is slated to air Friday, May 10.

Dominique appeared on the original series, so her arrival is a big deal for fans who watched that show and the updated one.

Everyone has an agenda on Dynasty, so there's a good chance there's going to be a power struggle between Dominique and her children.

Michele's casting dropped around the same time Nicollette Sheridan confirmed her exit as Alexis Carrington.

If you watch Dynasty online, you know that Liz Gillies was recently revealed to be taking on the role of Alexis, in addition to the role of Fallon.

It remains to be seen whether Dominique and Alexis will team up to wreak havoc for everyone, or if they will be adversaries.

Either way, Dominique's arrival is sure to shake up the show like never before. We're going to assume Jeff's mysterious illness has got to be bad if his mother appears on the scene.
