The first female suitor on "Everlasting" had been named for "UnREAL" season 3.

Caitlin Fitzgerald, the actress who portrays the role of Libby Masters in Showtime's "Master of Sex" series, has been tapped to give life to the character named Serena in the next installment of the fictional dating reality show within Lifetime's critically acclaimed drama series.

Serena is expected to stand her ground against "Everlasting" producer Rachel Goldberg (Shiri Appleby) and the show's scheming executive producer Quinn King (Constance Zimmer).

Fitzgerald also appeared in the final season of "Rectify" and is currently a part of the indie film titled "Always Shine" directed by Sophia Takal opposite Mackenzie Davis. She is also a part of the upcoming satirical drama, "This Is Your Death," directed by Giancarlo Esposito, together with Sarah Wayne Callies, Josh Duhamel and Famke Janssen.

Some of the men who will try to win Serena's attention include the charming fighter named Owen, the professional surfer named August, the arrogant Wall Street investor named Jasper, as well as the professional ballet dancer named Alexi. But the names of actors who will fill the roles in season 3 are yet to be announced.

The past "Everlasting" suitors include the British playboy named Adam Cromwell (Freddie Stroma), as well as the first black suitor in the history of dating reality shows Darius Beck (B.J. Britt).

Aside from Rachel and Quinn, "Everlasting" creator and Quinn's former lover Chet (Craig Bierko) is expected to return next season. They will be joined by Rachel's abusive ex-boyfriend Jeremy (Josh Kelly), Rachel's only friend Jay (Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman) and Quinn's former production assistant turned junior producer Madison (Genevieve Buechner).

"UnREAL" is co-created by Martin Noxon and Sarah Gertrude Shapiro. It offers a behind-the-scenes look into the events happening while making a dating reality show, just like ABC's long-running "The Bachelor" series.

The third season of "UnREAL" is expected to premiere later in 2017.
