As mentioned earlier, actor Ruby Rose left the CW’s Batwoman back in May. This departure came as a surprise to many fans. According to another Variety report, Ruby Rose ended up having friction with the production. She was reportedly not happy with the long work schedule required as the show’s lead. Hence the network, studio, and Rose decided to put an end to their collaboration.

In Batwoman Season 1, Kate Kane was showed as Bruce Wayne’s cousin. She goes on to take up her brother’s duties as Gotham’s new protector. But after Rose’s departure, Berlanti Productions and the studio announced that they were looking for a new face as the new Batwoman. This announcement also included the fact that the iconic character will be once again played by a member of the LGBTQ+ community.
