AceShowbiz - "Reign" is ready to abdicate the throne. The historical fantasy series will end after its upcoming fourth season, sources have confirmed. The final season is currently in production, which means producers will have a chance to give a proper ending to the story of Mary, Queen of Scots.

The CW has not officially announced the show's cancellation, but a tweet from one of its cast members pretty much confirmed the sad news. Jonathan Keltz, who plays Leith Bayard on the period drama, posted on Twitter, "Thank you to @CWReign @TheCW @CBSTVStudios the amazing cast writers crew and all of the fans. I love you all! #reign."

The 16-episode season 4 is set to premiere Friday, February 10 at 9 P.M. ET on The CW. The series finale is expected to air in June.

Created by Laurie McCarthy and Stephanie SenGupta who also serve as showrunners, "Reign" follows the early exploits of Mary, Queen of Scots, portrayed by Adelaide Kane. The series is a steady performer for the network, but it never drew large ratings.
