BATWOMAN TV Series (First Trailer)

[Dragonlordxxxxx]

Update: August 7, 2018

John Wick: Chapter 2 Star Ruby Rose Cast as the Lesbian Superhero Batwoman

The CW has cast its Batwoman. Out actress Ruby Rose has been tapped to play the lesbian superhero for the network. Rose's Batwoman will first appear in the December DC crossover event, with Arrow-verse mastermind Greg Berlanti plotting a stand-alone series revolving around the character.

The Batwoman series, which is in development with Caroline Dries (The Vampire Diaires) penning the script, revolves around Kate Kane, who, armed with a passion for social justice and flair for speaking her mind, soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian and highly trained street fighter primed to snuff out the failing city's criminal resurgence. But don't call her a hero yet — in a city desperate for a savior, Kate must overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham's symbol of hope.

Should Batwoman move to series, it would join a slate of DC shows at The CW that includes Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow and Black Lightning as Berlanti also builds a roster of DC fare on the comic book powerhouse's forthcoming DC Universe subscription digital platform. Set to launch next month, that platform will feature scripted originals including Titans, Doom Patrol and more.

Rose's casting comes after the network made it a priority to cast an openly gay actress to take on the role. Rose's credits include Netflix's Orange Is the New Black and features The Meg, Pitch Perfect 3 and John Wick: Chapter 2. Rose, also a model and recording artist — and former MTV VJ — is repped by UTA, Art2perform and Hirsch Wallerstein.

With the casting, The CW's superhero stable now includes an out lesbian superhero played by a lesbian actress as well as a trans actress playing a trans superhero, with activist Nicole Maines joining Supergirl as a series regular next season.

Would have preferred someone taller, but she will do.

At least the Batwoman outfit will allow for some really good stuntwoman to do the fight choreography justice.

I waz wondering when a lesbian superhero would emerge.

I'm thinking Supergirl is like to switch teams now yeah?

There has been a female bisexual superhero in the Arrowverse since season 2 of Arrow. And in Supergirl, the title character’s adopted sister is a lesbian.

And Batwoman has been a lesbian in the comics since 2006.

 

[jefferz]

Catwoman would be better.

People get tired of heroes. Anti-heroes is more compelling, and female anti-heroes are pretty rare.

A Hawkgirl that doesn't suck would be great

 

[Cool Hand Luke]

At least she can act (sarcasm).

DC should change their name to PC.

 

[amplus]

Can't decide if Ruby Rose is fit as fuck or fucking disgusting???

The tattoos are a massive NO NO amd she does look like a bloke but there is something extremely sexy about her

 

[ChillyPalmer]

Bold choice

Going with someone that can't act. Her best role was in a movie where she literally never said a word.

They couldn't find a lesbian with a modicum of talent? Shit, widen the net and cast someone who's bi.

Woof, this new dc streaming site is not off to a good start.

 

[VitorReem]

“armed with a passion for social justice and flair for speaking her mind, soars onto the streets of Gotham as Batwoman, an out lesbian“


HAHAHAHAHAHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA



GAME OVER

 

[MMA since 1993]

"Why not" - WB CEO

seems to be their motto

 

[Fraz]

Batdyke

 

[blaseblah]

Can she even act? I've seen nothing to suggest she's good enough to play a main character.

 

[Aldo145]

Why, this girl has no talent. Theres better suited stronger women out there. Ruby disappointed in john wick 2. Weak performance.

 

[Organic Damage]

Why do you guys act like you don't know how Hollywood casting works? It was always going to be a name lesbian and not some unheard of stuntwoman or thesbian (tee hee). I agree that Ruby Rose can't act, or fight, but I'm willing to bet people on both teams know who the fuck she is and want to bang her.

Same reason they cast ScarJo in that movie about a trans dude instead of an actual trans dude nobody has ever heard of who never drew a dime in his life.

 

[ProBoxingInsidr]

Wait there is a bat girl and a bat woman?
I need to get out more.

yes, because people that have thorough knowledge of all things comic book clearly are the ones getting out

 

[SheetsMMAfan]

See her naked in Orange is the New Black Black.

Would tear it up, but wouldn't be drawn to anything she headlines, especially DC fucking garbage.

 

[Ikuza]

Fingers crossed that The Veronicas get cast as twin villains.

[clutchCAT420]

Lesbian but the Batman still bangs her...

 

[One MMA Fan]

I don't like that choice or that actor.
