Actor Ruby Rose has been cast as DC superhero character Batwoman in a television series being developed at The CW Network. Batwoman will be the first TV series focused on an LGBT superhero, reported Entertainment Weekly.
The character will officially make an appearance at The CW’s annual DC crossover event of its shows – The Flash, Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl.
The series will revolve 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.
